The year was 2000, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. was in just his seventh Cup race. He won that day at Texas, but the victories have been sparse lately. Is this weekend's race the one that breaks a 68-race winless drought? Many say the time is coming soon, writes David Newton.

With speed being the rule of the day here- look for past winners Jimmie Johnson, Greg Biffle, Tony Stewart, Carl Edwards, and Matt Kenseth to do well. My pick is a driver who hasn't won at the Great American Speedway since 2001.
