2010 Talladega Sprint Cup Series race: Cautions as they happen
Today, we're at one of the trickiest tracks on the NASCAR Schedule; Talladega!
This is one of the most amazing, highly controversial tracks in NASCAR today.
It is said it is built on an ancient Indian burial ground, so many believe it is cursed.
This track has had some of the strangest occurrences of any track we've ever raced at.
If todays race is gonna be anything like yesterdays truck race, then its gonna be a good one!
We saw plenty of beating and banging, 3 and 4 Wide racing, and finally, the Big One.
Todd Bodine got turned into Mike Skinner, which caused a 5 Truck wreck, ending up w/ Ron Hornaday on his roof, finally flipping 3 times.
The finish was a 3-Wide photo finish, which ended with Kyle Busch winning by a bumper!
For todays race, we have Juan Pablo Montoya on Pole, with Clint Bowyer starting beside him.
Its Montoya's 5th Pole, and 3rd of the year!
Are we gonna see 4+ wide racing?
Is there going to be another photo finish?
When will the big one happen?
We're about to find out!
BOOGITY BOOGITY BOOGITY!! LETS GO TALLADEGA RACING BOYS!!
Today also marks the 10th Anniversary of Dale Earnhardt's 10th career Talladega victory.
It would also be his last Victory before his untimely death in Daytona the next year.
Hard to believe its been 10 years, huh? :(
