For each of the 36 races during the 2011 Sprint Cup season, TUMS will provide a brief historical recap of a moment when a team fought back to overcome an obstacle, one that can easily be described as a TUMS “Fights Back Fast” Moment. This week, the focus is on Charlotte Motor Speedway.

A great deal has been made of the phrase ‘winning’ over the past two months, but for Roush Fenway’s diverse and talented stable of drivers, winning has become fast reality.
