Sonny should be strong again this year and could repeat.
As far as I know Brooke will be hit and miss if he's running 410 most of the time but I haven't talked to him since last fall so I don't know what their exact plans are. I don't think you can figure him in running for the points.
Graf and Broty will both be strong contenders. Andy should be at enough of their events to be near the top of the points. Barickman vacated the #34 and has retired but not sure if that will end up being permanent or not. Just know he won't be in Ron's car this year, Broty will.
A lot will depend on how much the listed drivers race with the UMSS. A lot of those Feature winners that are listed only run part time with them. I haven't been in touch with those guys much during the off season so when the season kicks in these first couple weekends we'll see what kind of commitment they're getting from the racing teams. Every new season with all tracks and sanctions is like shuffling the deck and starting all over.
