NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Subway Fresh Fit 600 | Phoenix International Raceway Open Race Thread

I wonder if the Sprint Cup event today wil have as much drama as the Nationwide race did yesterday? We’ll just have to wait and see.

Some things to consider as we head into today’s race:

- Look at that front row. The ‘Dinger and Mr. Speed. Wow.

- Will Hamlin be able to go the distance or will Mears get in? I’m thinking Mears is getting in to finish it.

- Will Martin finally have a good race and get back in the groove?

- any more? Just post them in the comments area.

Staring line-up is after the jump. See you on the other side.
