I remember thinking the racing really kind of sucked at this track last year for some reason... Gateway is essentially the St. Louis area track just across the state line into Illinois, right?

Believe so. Ford should have a good showing given the type of track this is.

Correct, this is the track near St Louis.

Toyota dominated the top 10 last year, with Ford having a decent showing as well.

Seems like I want to remember that the cars handle "tight" trying to turn in the corners there, and that passing is somewhat difficult in general terms... am I remembering that correctly - or do I have it confused with another track somewhere else?

Yep, it's an odd track. Think of a larger Martinsville in terms of long straightaways and sharp corners, but egg shaped. Turns 1 and 2 are totally different than 3 and 4. Setup will vary from car to car depending on how they want their car to handle on each end of the track.

I'm with ya....I get the feeling a Ford will win today. No real reason why, as all 3 manufacturers had good qualifying runs yesterday. But I could see Penske doing well today.

Top 10 spots are all Chase drivers.

Also, if you guys want a little pre-race action, the CARS Tour at Tri-County was postponed yesterday and are running today. They start at 1:30 on FloRacing.
