Here's a small tidbit. He picks Katie Elder to win BSL although she has 
been driving all year in a Type R Integra.  I'm pretty sure the rest of BS 
will protest if she wins.

I just read the NAP picks and do also admit i'm disappointed in the 
picks.  At first i thought that i was reading last year's Nats results 
since he picked quite a few to just repeat.  My first thought was that he 
didn't give much thought at all to the picks.  Some were outright absurd, 
as noted with the BSL picks.   Then i also pondered the possibility that 
perhaps Dick was trying to be comedic?   I couldn't figure it out.

I, too, would expect much more research to be put into such an article that 
is read by MANY with great interest.  Daddio in D stock?  its been 
well-known for a LONG time that he wasn't going to drive a Neon this 
year.  Where has Dick been?  Has he not been paying attention to the Tours 
for GSL?  perhaps he confused BSL with GSL?    He refers to those as easy 
picks.  I refer to them as lack of research.

The one pick that i was pleased to see where he actually stuck himself out 
on a limb was to put Peter Fehn as his choice for FP.

As for Phil's statement that he has " not yet seen better ones ready for 
deadline", while that may be his opinion, i do believe that SportsCar's 
picks more accurately picked by following the years Tours and gossip of 
who's driving what.
