NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Aaron's 499

(188 laps, 500.08 miles)

SUNDAY, MAY 4 - 1 p.m. ET

Live coverage - FOX

Qualifying Update - A collective "WHO" could be heard across the novice NASCAR landscape after #33 Brian Scott took the pole position at Talladega Saturday afternoon.  The only notable change in our challenge is the 4 drivers who failed to qualify for the race: #35 Eric MeClure, #77 Dace Blaney, #44 J.J. Yeley, & #87 Joe Nemechek - If any of our Challengers have selected these drivers and do not wish to resubmit an updated sheet, they  will be given a similar point cost alternate.

Unlike qualifying in F1 (shameless plug - Spanish Grand Prix next week #1nDun) where the starting grid will largely determine the outcome of the race.  NASCAR starting positions usually have little factor in the final results, save for start / finish differential - a stat that plays a large part in 1nDun's scoring system.

Good luck and thanks again for playing!
