ELLIOTT SADLER QUOTES: “Talladega is considered a wildcard on the NASCAR schedule. One of the main goals of the race is to stay out of the inevitable “Big Ones.” We hope to stay out of the way and be there at the end to compete for the win. I enjoy racing at Talladega, and I’ve been lucky enough to win the pole award five combined times from all my Nationwide and Sprint Cup Series starts. This OneMain Financial team is really hoping for a breakthrough weekend, and Talladega could definitely be the weekend.”
