Food City 500

Food City 500
March 16, 2008

The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series returns to the high banks of Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday, March 16, for the Food City 500. One Dale is in a new ride and another Dale is competing in his final season. The last two Sprint Cup races saw two first-time Bristol Cup Series winners, in Kyle Busch and Carl Edwards. Who'll take home that big ol' Bristol Food City 500 trophy this year?

The Food City 500 is part of a spectacular Bristol race weekend, which includes the Sharpie MINI 300 Nationwide Series race (March 15) as well as Pole Day (March 14).  See schedule below.
