Quotes

...And despite losing in the first round of the NHRA Southern Nationals, Beckman was optimistic. "Two weeks ago I would have been really disappointed with a first-round loss and after having my perspective-button reset when we didn't qualify last week at Houston, this is a first-round loss we can swallow. "We're on our way back." With new crew chief Todd Smith, who took over three weeks ago, the DonDon Schumacher Racing Dodge Charger R/T made four solid qualifying runs and started the first round ranked eighth among 16 cars. Even in the first-round loss to rookie Courtney Force, someone Beckman taught to drag race, he found solace. Force's 4.198-second run at 305.91 mph barely edge Beckman's 4.168 (305.01). "People say it must be easier to lose to someone who you taught to drag race, and I say I wouldn't want my dad to beat me. "She's got a bright future ahead of her. But it doesn't matter who's in the other lane. We get paid to win rounds, and we didn't get it done today. We're right back in a competitive Funny Car and we couldn't say that a week ago. "We came up on the wrong end of a good drag race. Losing still isn't pleasant, but I feel like we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Todd is getting a handle on the DSR tune-up program. They're making little adjustments to get us to the finish line and taking data and getting us a faster car in the future. "We made five good, legitimate runs here and had a good lap today. "Until we rolled into this track this chassis had not gotten down a track under full power on two straight runs in 17 tries. "Every run was in the top eight of each qualifying session, and we have a competitive race car again. "We can say that now."

...66-mile track. NASCAR has been coming to Talladega, Alabama since 1969. The first race was won by Richard Brickhouse in a "69 Dodge. Interestingly, the Pole speed for that first race was 196.386 mph while today's Pole sitter Jeff Gordon turned in a lap of 191.623 mph. Talladega is a massive tri-oval which has banking of 33 degrees in the turns. The 4,300 foot frontstretch is 16.5 degrees while the 4000 foot backstretch is a mere two degrees. The grandstands will hold 143,231 NASCAR fans. It used to be easy to pick a winner at Talladega, just pick the manufacturer Chevrolet, and one of the Earnhardts. But times have been a changin" . At least for the Earnhardt name...
...The first NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Richmond was run back on April 19th, 1953, and was won by Lee Petty in a "53 Dodge. The race had 27 entries and a Pole speed of 48.465 mph - though that was original half-mile track. Tonight, NASCAR's oldest Pole sitter Mark Martin will start at the front ahead of 42 other entries after putting up a Pole speed of 128.327 mph. Historically, Richmond International Raceway has been a favorite of the bow-tie boys. But things have generally changed. On May 2nd of 2009, Kyle Busch and his No. 18 Combos Toyota broke up what had been a all-Chevrolet party over the previous seven visits to Richmond. From 2006 to 2008, Chevrolet had won six straight races. Busch's triumph ended that winning streak, and started a new trend for the Toyota brand. Toyota had five straight triumphs until Kevin Harvick broke through for victory last fall in a Chevrolet. Which also means neither Ford or Dodge have won at Richmond since 2005. But another trend that hasn't been bucked - yet - is that Kyle Busch wins the first visit to Richmond each season. With that in mind, we are going to be Mr. Obvious and pick Kyle Busch to grab his fourth straight Spring win at Richmond. You can't beat his numbers over the last six races (3 wins, 5 top-fives, and a pole position). Busch has also scored more points at Richmond than another other driver over that stretch. Over his career, he's finished in the top-five eleven times in 14 tries, which is an amazing achievement. But even better, he's finished first or second seven times in 14 tries. Should that logic fail us, you might also keep an eye on Jeff Gordon and Jimmie JohnsonJohnson Johnson has won three times at Richmond, but his last win came back in 2008. While Gordon has a solid record here, and finished third in the Fall 2011 race. So sit back and enjoy tonight's Saturday night main event! It's sure to be a door bangin" crowd pleaser!
