GFS Marketplace 400.
Sunday August 20 2006. 2:00 e.t.
Michigan International Speedway.
Brooklyn, MI.


Jeremy Mayfield is the defending champion of Michigan International Speedway's second NASCAR Nextel Cup event, but it's Evernham Motorsports teammate Kasey Kahne who may be looking forward to this race. Kahne has a tour-leading four wins this season, the last coming at Michigan in June, and he would be a smart NASCAR bet here. A victory would make Kahne, likely one of the sportsbook favorites, the first driver to sweep a season's events at Michigan since Bobby Labonte in 1995, and make Ray Evernham just the third owner in track history to win at least three straight races at MIS and the first since Bill Elliott won four straight in 1985-1986 for owner Harry Melling.
