TALLADEGA — On Friday, Dodge unveiled its new Challenger. On Monday, Dodge put it on the track. Sprint Cup drivers Jeff Burton and Kevin Harvick and Nationwide driver Justin Allgaier were among eight drivers who put the new Challenger to the test at Talladega Superspeedway, just a day after the Amp Energy 500.

TALLADEGA — Jamie McMurray said doesn’t he like just riding around. But he likes riding around with a banged-up car just even less. After wrecking seven laps in at Talladega Superspeedway in the spring race, he made a decision to suffer through whatever would make him better in Talladega races. As a result, he did a lot better — he won.

TALLADEGA — NASCAR not only needs to make major changes to restrictor plate racing, it needs to make major changes to the way it looks at it. At least that’s the way Dale Earnhardt Jr. sees it.

TALLADEGA — Mark Martin’s latest crash at Talladega Superspeedway left him a man of few words. He sounded nothing like a man who had just won the “lottery” in Sunday’s AMP Energy 500. He sounded like someone who had a typical Mark Martin day at Talladega, a day he predicted he would not have.
