Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500 Race Picks

The Sprint Cup Series will take center stage this afternoon for 500 laps around the paperclip at Martinsville Speedway in the Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500. Today’s race marks the start of the “Eliminator Round” with just 8 Chase drivers remaining. The same criteria remains for the Chase hopefuls which is win and advance. Perhaps more importantly is the fact that none of the Chase drivers can afford to have a bad performance or even sustain bad luck. As we saw in the Contender Round with Dale Earnhardt Jr and Jimmie Johnson, sometimes those mistakes are too costly to make up. Therefore we keep our eyes on the Chase drivers today as we prepare for 500 laps of action at Martinsville Speedway. Take a look at our Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500 race picks:
