NASCAR Cup Series

AdvoCare International, LP (AdvoCare), a leading health and wellness company, today announced they will be the title sponsor for the Phoenix International Raceway’s Nov. 11 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Race.

“We haven’t started the Chase the way we would have wanted, but Dover is a track where we can change that. The Roush Fenway cars have run well at Dover in the past and I’ve had some success there too. We’ve got some good tracks coming up to finish out the year and I’m ready to put New Hampshire behind us and get to Dover.”

Kenseth on racing at Dover International Speedway: “Dover has been one of our better tracks historically. We haven’t been really dominant there, but we’ve been able to get some top-fives there the last few times we’ve been to Dover, which is good, but we still need to be a little better there too. We’ve got a little work to do as we head to Dover, but it’s definitely one of our better tracks on the circuit, and a place that I’m really hoping we can make up some ground in the point standings.”

Dodge has six wins at Dover, including two Chase race victories – Richard Petty (2), Ryan Newman (3) and Kurt Busch. Newman scored the first ever Chase victory at Dover in 2004 while Busch lead 44 laps en route to victory last fall.

Carl Edwards on racing at Dover International Speedway: “I’ve been looking forward to Dover for a while now. That’s a great race track for all of our Roush Fenway Fords. I love the race track, it’s a grueling race, qualifying is exciting and difficult, pit stops are tough, it’s just a really challenging race track. I look forward to hopefully having some of the success we’ve had there in the past.”

NASCAR announced today the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series schedule for the 2013 season, a highly anticipated campaign that will welcome redesigned race cars to the track.

No. 15 5-hour ENERGY Toyota crew chief Brian Pattie calls his team’s tenth and fourth-place finishes in the first two Chase races “good” but says now it’s time for “great” finishes.

BACK-TO-BACK TOP-10s TO START THE CHASE: Last weekend in New Hampshire, Joey Logano picked up his second-straight top-10 finish and his 10th top-10 of the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. Logano raced around 15th for the first half of the race fighting a tight racecar before a great pit call by crew chief Jason Ratcliff got Logano track position and a better handling No. 20 Home Depot Toyota. Logano then raced his way in the top-10 and stayed out during a late-race caution and held off several drivers with fresher tires to grab an eighth-place finish. Logano also finished in the top-10, coming home seventh, two weekends ago at Chicagoland Speedway.

He is not exactly "calling his shot," but Jeff Gordon is pretty confident ahead of Sunday's AAA 400 at Dover International Speedway.

No. 56 NAPA AUTO PARTS Toyota driver Martin Truex Jr.’s appointment calendar is several pages long this week as he returns to his home track for Sunday’s AAA 400 at Dover (Del.) International Speedway.
