DRIVER: Kyle Busch
CAR: No. 18 Toyota, Joe Gibbs Racing
OUTLOOK: Busch finished 10th in the 2008 championship. After a spectacular regular season (eight wins in 26 starts), he and crew chief Steve Addington fell apart during the 10-race Chase for the Championship playoff. Don't bet it will happen again.
DRIVER: Jimmie Johnson
CAR: No. 48 Chevrolet, Hendrick Motorsports
OUTLOOK: Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus tied a record in 2008 with their third-consecutive Sprint Cup title. (Cale Yarborough was the first, in 1976, '77 and '78.) They are capable, but the odds seem stacked against them doing it a fourth time.
DRIVER: Carl Edwards
