UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400 @ Las Vegas NEXTEL Cup Event Thread *SPOILERS*
Early bird gets the worm. The entry list is up and features 55 drivers.
Aric Almirola, Jon Wood and, of course, A.J. Allmendinger will be looking to qualify for their first Cup race. Wood will be driving the #21, and as such is guaranteed a starting spot. Ken Schrader will move to the #47 for this race and will have to qualify on speed. Almirola will be driving a Gibbs Racing Chevy and should as such have a decent shot at qualifying. This race will be the first race on the new banking, up to 20 degrees from 12 degrees in the past. The 'front straight' and back straight are now both banked 9 degrees (up from 8 degrees and 3 degrees in the past). For me personally it's the first time I'm really looking forward to seeing a race at Las Vegas. |
