This week, the circuit heads to the very fast 1.5-mile Texas Motor Speedway, where both Stewart and Edwards are previous winners. This track has been friendly to Roush-Fenway drivers through the years, with Matt Kenseth the most recent winner here in April. The race will be led to green by three Roush teammates: Greg Biffle (pole), David Ragan, and Matt Kenseth.
Carl Edwards (7/1): In 22 races overall at Texas Motor Speedway, Edwards has made 13 starts and has three wins, making him the winningest active driver here. He swept this track in 2008 and also won the November race in 2005. Edwards finished 3rd here in April after starting 2nd. He starts 7th on Sunday.
Kurt Busch (16/1): Kurt will start 14th on Sunday and is a previous Texas winner, having won the November race in 2009. Busch finished 10th here in the spring race and rolls off 14th on Sunday. Busch is currently 8th in championship point standings. [ad-8757089]
Greg Biffle (22/1): Biffle won at Texas in the spring of 2005 and has posted six straight top-10 finishes heading into Sunday’s race, where he will be starting on the pole. Biffle ran 4th here in the spring and is one of the non-Chase contenders who doesn’t have much to lose by going for a win before the season is out.
Notes: Matt Kenseth has the best average finish at Texas Motor Speedway, followed by Denny Hamlin and Jimmie Johnson.
Kenseth won the spring race here after leading 169 laps. Edwards and Kenseth both go off at 7/1 odds, but Edwards may have the greater motivation as he tries to put gain some distance on Tony Stewart in the Chase standings.
Stewart’s previous Texas win came in this race in 2006.
Kyle Busch, who was tied with Jimmie Johnson as a favorite with 5/1 odds, was parked by NASCAR Saturday morning following a vicious hit on Ron Hornaday in Friday night’s truck race; Busch will not race in either the Nationwide or Cup race this weekend.
Preview: Weather has been an issue already this weekend, both in Martinsville, Virginia, and along the entire northeast coast of the U.S. Rain on Friday and early in the day Saturday forced a change to the Cup schedule, resulting in just one practice session, held Saturday morning, and the cancellation of Cup qualifying.
Preview: NASCAR races at Talladega Superspeedway have become synonymous with the word ‘crapshoot’ – making predicting a race winner rather challenging, particularly with this year’s unconventional two-car tandem-style racing.
Preview: Saturday night’s running of the Bank of America 500 will be the fifth of ten Chase races and the only one taking place on a Saturday night. Because of an unusual schedule this weekend, qualifying took place Thursday with Tony Stewart scoring the pole and Matt Kenseth in P2.
Preview: The Kansas Speedway hosts Chase race No. 4 on this 1.5-mile, flat tri-oval track. The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series last raced here in June. At that time, Brad Keselowski won, though teammate Kurt Busch led the most laps in a race that came down to fuel mileage.
Preview: Dover is the third race of the ten-race Chase for the Sprint Cup, the first two having been won by Tony Stewart, who now leads the point standings. Although he’s won twice at Dover in 25 starts, Stewart’s two wins here came back-to-back in 2000, and Dover has not been a great track for him recently.
