Kahne Making His Move

For weeks, people around NASCAR have been saying Carl Edwards and Kyle Busch were the best two young drivers in the sport. I think Kasey Kahne should be mentioned with them.
Kahne is leading the way for Dodge drivers after he picked up another victory at Pocono last weekend.
He seems to of come out of nowhere. He was voted into the All-Star race and then he went on to win that race. He then won the Coca-Cola 600 before picking up Pocono.
While he's hot, Busch has cooled off some. I don't know but he may have tried to be in too many races last week. But it was fun watching him try to be in Texas, Tennessee and Pocono on back-to-back-to-back days.
As for this weekend at Michigan, this is a place where Ford normally does well. So look for Carl Edwards, Matt Kenseth and Greg Biffle to be near the top. Just because Ford normally dominates, doesn't mean the others won't try to win. I believe Busch, Tony Stewart and Denny Hamlin will lead the way for Toyota while Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr. will lead the way for Chevrolet.
Busch's brother Kurt won at Michigan last summer so don't be surprised if he runs well. Oh, and then there Kahne. He's too hot to count out.
