Pocono and Montreal for Edwards
Carl Edwards has one win in five races at Pocono Raceway in Pennsylvania. He is sixth in the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series standings and looks like he will be in the Chase.
The car his team is bringing to Pocono is the same car Edwards raced at Texas Motor Speedway earlier this year. He started 10th and finished 12th in the Texas race.
"I'm excited to go to Pocono," said Edwards, driver of the No. 99 Ford for Roush Fenway Racing. "I feel like over the past several weeks our team has made some great improvements and I'm really proud of my Office Depot team. We certainly have what it takes to run well there, even though we struggled some at Pocono on our last visit."
Edwards finished 14th in the rain-shortened June race at Pocono. He started 32nd and made up 18 spots, the most of any driver in the race.
Edwards will also be in the NASCAR Busch Series race in Montreal, Canada. Edwards leads the Busch Series standings by 852 points over David Reutimann.
"This weekend will be especially exciting since I'll be traveling between the Busch and Cup Series races," Edwards said. "I'm looking forward to racing Montreal and hopefully I'll be able to a win races in two different countries in the same weekend."
