Talladega "News" and Notes

--The Rusty Wallace-Ryan Newman feud took an unexpected turn this week, with mutual teammate Travis Kvapil describing the awkwardness around the garage. This uneasy air is expected to stem from everyone's insistance on calling him Brendan.
--Robby Gordon will miss yet another race this week after failing to qualify. Don't worry, Robby--a fat 11th place finish is waiting for you at Infineon.
--Continuing their tradition of redundancy, DEI entered Martin Truex Jr. in this week's race, obviously wanting to improve on a track they've dominated for years.
--Bobby Hamilton Jr. may be facing charges for an altercation at a Late Model race in Nashville. What's worse, Bobby Sr. wasn't even there to complain about it.
--This week Jeff Gordon runs a special paint scheme with legendary Star Wars character Mark Martin on the hood.
