| Matt -- Braun Racing seems to have a pretty good thought here: - Quote :
- The #32 Dollar General team will make its next attempt at Sprint Cup racing at Texas Motor Speedway (TMS) in April. Given the fact that NASCAR is doing away with the wing and returning to the spoiler on the NSCS car, team owner Todd Braun and crew chief, Trent Owens, both agreed that it made more sense to skip this weekend's Atlanta race and focus on the changing technology. The open test session at Charlotte Motor Speedway (March 23-24) will give the new NSCS team the chance to test for the April, 18 event at TMS.(Braun Racing)
Looks like they're already getting ready to go with the spoiler, so Reed will really have something to race with in Texas! | |

- Some Chassis selections for Atlanta:
#1-Jamie McMurray: Kevin "Bono" Manion has decided to bring chassis #905. This is a brand new chassis. #2-Kurt Busch and his Steve Addington-led "Blue Deuce" team will debut their "PRS-715" Penske Racing Charger during the Kobalt Tools 500 action this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway. "This car is very similar to the '704 car' we raced for the first time out at Fontana," said team engineer Dave Winston. "The guys are doing a great job at the shop in getting these new cars ready," crew chief Addington said. "It looks like we'll have new Miller Lite Dodges at Bristol and Martinsville, too." #5-Mark Martin: Crew chief Alan Gustafson has chosen Hendrick Motorsports Chassis #5-500 for the race in Atlanta this weekend. Martin drove this chassis to earn the pole position and finish second at Indianapolis Motor Speedway last year. He also raced 5-500 to a fourth-place finish at Auto Club Speedway last October. #6-David Ragan: The Chassis Primary is RK-615 which last ran Texas finished 17th. The backup is RK-670 ran Homestead in 2009 as the #26 (McMurray) finished 18th. The Pleasantdale West Center (SLIC - 3014) in the Georgia District was selected for the March 7 Kolbalt Tools 500 as part of the UPS Center Recognition Program. The Pleasantdale West Center, one of the top two centers in the district for 2009, is recognized for its exceptional service performance, which includes range of dispatch, exception scan and delivery scan frequency, and net delivered per piece and inside pieces per hour performance. #11-Denny Hamlin: The FedEx team will unload Chassis JGR 253 this weekend in Atlanta. This car has one previous start on its record, a tenth-place finish last season at Michigan. Backup Chassis 246 sat on the pole at Auto Club in the fall of 2009 and will serve as the backup this weekend. The #11 FedEx Office Toyota will carry the numbers #7364 on the B-posts for Sunday's race in recognition of the St. Louis/Tennessee/Indiana sales team. The 20-plus person team is being honored for outstanding sales performance and partnership throughout the FedEx Office network. #12-Brad Keselowski: The #12 Penske Dodge Charger team will use chassis PRS-710 during Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series Kobalt Tools 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. PRS-710 is a brand new chassis to the #12 Dodge team. #14-Tony Stewart: running Chassis No. 14-511, a carryover chassis from the former Haas CNC team, with a new nose and bumper installed prior to the 2009 season. Chassis No. 14-511 made its debut at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in July 2008 with Jason Leffler at the wheel. There, it qualified 21st and finished on the lead lap in 32nd. Its next start came at Atlanta Motor Speedway in October 2008 where Tony Raines wheeled it to a 32nd-place finish after starting 43rd. Qualifying was rained-out at Atlanta, and Raines earned a spot in the field by the number of qualifying attempts made by Haas CNC's No. 70 car during the course of the 2008 season. Raines also piloted Chassis No. 14-511 in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where it qualified 32nd and finished 37th. This car made its first start for Stewart-Haas Racing at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway in March 2009, where Tony Stewart used it to qualify 15th and finish 17th. The car participated in a Goodyear tire test at Atlanta July 13-14 and then returned to the 1.54-mile oval for the Labor Day weekend Sprint Cup race where Stewart started 12th and finished 11th. Its final start of 2009 came in October at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif., where Stewart qualified 20th and then rallied to a fifth-place finish after a pit road speeding penalty dropped him to 30th with less than 90 laps remaining. This weekend's event at Atlanta will mark Chassis No. 14-511's seventh career start and fourth with Stewart. #17-Matt Kenseth: primary chassis for the #17 Valvoline Ford will be RK-672, with the backup being RK-612, no details #18-Kyle Busch: Sunday's Kobalt Tools 500 will be the third-ever start for #257. It made its debut last fall at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, where Busch started a distant 34th. The Las Vegas native survived a mid-race scrape with the wall and rallied for a 13th-place finish. The most recent start by this chassis came last November at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, where Busch dominated the Dickies 500 by leading six times for a race-high 232 laps but ran out of fuel late in the race and was relegated to a disappointing 11th-place finish. #24-Jeff Gordon: Crew chief Steve Letarte has chosen Hendrick Motorsports Chassis #24-581 for Sunday's race at Atlanta. This is a brand new chassis that has not been raced or tested. #29-Kevin Harvick: will pilot Chassis #288 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable. This Shell-Pennzoil Chevy scored a runner-up finish two weeks ago at Auto Club Speedway. Harvick also raced this chassis three times in the latter part of the 2009 season, finishing 18th at Charlotte Motor Speedway, fifth at Texas Motor Speedway and third at Homestead-Miami Speedway. #31-Jeff Burton: will pilot chassis #291 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable. Built new for the 2010 season, Burton drove this Caterpillar Chevy to a third-place finish two weeks ago at Auto Club Speedway. #33-Clint Bowyer: will pilot Chassis #298 from Richard Childress Racing's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable. Built new in 2010, this Chevy will be put through its first paces this weekend. #36 Mike Bliss: the #36 Wave Energy Drink Chevy team will run TBR 802 as their primary chassis this weekend at Atlanta. #39-Ryan Newman Kobalt Tools 500 Car Chassis No. 39-531: This chassis last saw action just two weekends ago at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, CA. Newman started 18th and was a fixture in the top-12 prior to an engine failure at lap 148, finishing 36th. Prior to the car's first outing of the 2010 season, Newman piloted this chassis at three races in 2009 twice at Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway for the Sprint All-Star race in May and for the NASCAR Banking 500 in October, and at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Ill., in July. During the offseason, the original body was cut off the car. The car was made lighter and the bodywork was rebuilt. #42-Juan Pablo Montoya: Crew Chief Brian Pattie and the #42 Target team will bring chassis #819 to Atlanta Motor Speedway. This is a veteran chassis that ran six times in the 2009 season finishing in the top-five three times at Pocono (August), Atlanta (September), and California (October). This is also the chassis used in the Brickyard where Montoya dominated, leading 116 laps before finishing 11th. The other two races ran were Michigan (August) and Texas (November) where it finished 19th and 37th. #48-Jimmie Johnson: Chassis number 558 will be the primary for Sunday's Kobalt Tools 500. Johnson last drove that car from the pole to victory lane at Charlotte Motor Speedway in October. Backup chassis #534 was last driven to a 13th-place result at Pocono Raceway last August. #88-Dale Earnhardt Jr.: This weekend at Las Vegas, crew chief Lance McGrew and the #88 engineers will unload Hendrick Motorsports Chassis #88-584. This is a brand new chassis that has not been raced or tested. #99-Carl Edwards: The #99 Roush Fenway Racing crew will unload RK-639 for the weekend. Edwards raced this car at Kansas (10th), Michigan in June (fourth) and Texas in April (10th) in 2009.(from team PR's if reported)(3-5-2010) | |
