Pocono "News" and Notes Part 2: Electric Bugaloo

--Arnold Motorsports has sold their successful truck team to focus on their Cup program, which has only qualified for three races thus far. Huh?!?

--Last time at Pocono drivers were plagued by a rash of tire failures attributed to the "chordoroy" on the inside of the track. Chordoroy also caused a rash of date failures in the early 1980's.

--Tim Richmond is arguably the most successful driver in Pocono's history, winning 3 times in his very brief career. However, Tim will always be remembered for one thing and one thing only--that Winston poster.*

--Pocono annually features the smallest turn-around time between Cup dates. They also feature the smallest amount of excitement.

--Carl Edwards will go to the back of the pack after skipping qualifying to run the Pikes Peak Busch race. Damn you Charter Communications Marketing Department!

ODDS:
EVEN--this race will come down to fuel mileage.
4:1--an announcer will mention the constant requests to shorten the race to 400 miles.
100:1--an announcer will mention the time when a drunk fan wandered onto the track in front of Davey Allison's car.

*If you don't know what this is, be careful searching for it. This is (literally) rated R.
