Our experts weigh in on four of the biggest questions in NASCAR:Turn 1: Kevin Harvick and the 4 team: Is it really as simple as flicking the switch?Ricky Craven, ESPN NASCAR analyst: No, he didnt,?but speed in this business is the closest thing to an insurance policy for NASCAR teams, and Harvick has been lightning fast really since hes been in the No. 4 car. This team has dominated enough races to have three times the wins they have, but so many fundamental errors have cost them. The reverse happened last week. Harvick didnt dominate the race, but he methodically worked his way to the front, made no mistakes and seized the moment. There are three veteran drivers who can win with savvy alone -- Harvick, Johnson, Kenseth. Of the three, Harvick has the most speed.Ryan McGee, ESPN.com:?No way. But I do think that teams can start cycling everything up toward the start of the Chase, like an Olympic athlete builds everything toward peaking just in time for their biggest times of year. Harvicks calling out of his pit crew felt to me like it was part of that process.John Oreovicz, ESPN.com: Not quite. Its mostly a matter of perfect execution. If you regularly run in the top five, youre putting yourself in a position to win, and over the last three years, the No. 4 runs in the top five more consistently than anyone. When Harvick and the team go through a race -- or a Chase -- mistake-free, thats when it looks like they are flicking the switch.Bob Pockrass, ESPN.com: No. Because the switch is a dial. And during the season, they turn the dial to see whether they like a certain amount of light. And then when they really want, they just turn the dial to the optimum level.Turn 2: Which driver is feeling the most pressure headed to Dover?Craven: On one hand, its reasonable to think Tony Stewart has the most pressure. Any shot at a final title hinges on a great race, which isnt likely. But I Believe Tony is at peace with closing out his career, ready for the next chapter, whatever that is. On the flip side is Kyle Larson. He is among a small group of guys capable of being the face of NASCAR for the next decade. If Kyle survives this round, you never know.McGee:?I want to say Tony Stewart, this being his last Chase and all of that. But theres also always been a part of me thats believed hes spent this whole season playing with house money, so theres not a lot of pressure there. So ... well ... yeah, Im still saying Stewart.Oreovicz: Kyle Larson. He came into the Chase on a hot streak, and now hes on the bubble. Its a good track for him and he can control his own destiny by performing well. But honestly, most of the 14 drivers who dont have a win face some pressure.Pockrass: Carl Edwards. Lowest among the Toyota drivers, Edwards remains a legitimate championship contender. At 10th in the standings and an 11-point edge on 12th, Edwards pretty much controls his own destiny. But if he doesnt make it, it will be a premature disappointing end to his season, a year possibly ruined by his pit-road mistake at New Hampshire.Turn 3: Will anyone cross the rear skew line and face a 35-point penalty and a three-race crew-chief suspension?Craven:?Im being told that a team or two found their way around the rule in race conditions earlier in the season. I dont know, but generally speaking, accusations are abundant when folks are getting their butts kicked. That said, if a team gets caught with a mechanically enhanced part, theyll be taken to the woodshed by NASCAR.McGee:?Certainly no one will be that dumb, right?Oreovicz: We wont know until it happens. As closely as it is being monitored, you would think that teams would be a bit conservative in that area.Pockrass: Yes. Teams must flirt with the line in order to remain competitive. Someone will venture too close and get a three-week vacation from the track.Turn 4: James Hinchcliffe is holding his own on Dancing With The Stars. What driver would you want to see in what reality show?Craven:?Tony Stewart on Gold Rush. Tony pushing dirt with a bulldozer, verbally sparring with Todd Hoffman. That would be entertaining -- and perhaps the perfect escape for the three-time champ.Jeff Gordon spending a season on Bering Sea Gold would be a close second, only because I know he wouldnt survive the season.McGee:?I want to see Jimmie Johnson on Survivor. Hes smart, hes in amazing physical shape, hes a great people person, but he also has a killer competitive streak and could be unexpectedly ruthless when he needs to be. Then again, DeLana and Kevin Harvick on the Amazing Race would be awesome, too.Oreovicz: Its one step removed from drivers, but I think a season of The Real Housewives of Lake Norman, featuring the likes of DeLana Harvick, Samantha Busch and Katie Kenseth could be interesting. It would also be fun to see Tony Stewart try to keep his cool interacting with a group of roommates in the Big Brother house.Pockrass: Tony Stewart on Survivor. Would the other participants enjoy kicking Stewart off or would he charm them into keeping him? Cheap NBA Jerseys .
