Jeff Gordon, goes to Talladega this weekend hoping to remain the points leader and win a race because…

(Gordon) “It’s frustrating to not win but each time we run this good it builds more confidence and momentum that we’re going to get that win soon.”

Greg Biffle says there is no in-between when it comes to restrictor plate racing at Talladega.

(Biffle) “It’s either a dull moment or it’s high energy, white knuckle.”

Juan Pablo Montoya returns to the Sprint Cup Series driving for Team Penske at Michigan International Speedway in June and the Brickyard 400 in July.

NASCAR fines Marcus Ambrose $25,000 dollars, and Casey Mears $15,000 dollars after a post race fight at Richmond. Both men on probation until May 28th.

And Bobby and Donnie Allison and Red Farmer, some of the original members of “the Alabama Gang” were at Talladega this week to see the backstretch renamed “The Alabama Gang Superstretch.”
