There are just two weeks left until NASCAR’s playoffs begin and there are still plenty of automatic forecasts left to the taking. Denny Hamlin must be thrilled that the tour is headed back to Darlington Raceway.

The defending champion of the Bojangles Southern 500, Hamlin is second among active drivers with 2 wins at the 1.366-mile monitor and he has seven top 5s and 10 top 10s to proceed with it in 12 career races at the track. He has finished in the top 3 of his last six races at Darlington and 4 in five of the last six on that track.

The 38-year-old has to be thrilled to make his way to South Carolina this week as he looks for his first victory of the season in addition to an automatic berth to the playoffs. But with just three finishes inside the top 10 in his last six races, he isn’t performing at his absolute best.

The Big 3 of Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. do just that. All three have wins on the track in their careers and have combined for 11 top 5s and 24 top 10s in Darlington Raceway. Busch is second among active drivers at motorist rating in the South Carolina track (105.1) and he’s our pick to win the Bojangles Southern 500.
