NASCAR Sprint Cup Series at Atlanta Motor Speedway: entry list
With Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway Speedweeks in the history books, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series heads to Atlanta Motor Speedway for race two on the 36-race 2015 schedule.
The entry list for Sunday’s Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 Sprint Cup race at Atlanta is stacked with 48 drivers vying for the 43 starting spots that will make up the race grid. As in last week’s season-opening Daytona 500, both Busch brothers, Kurt and Kyle, will be absent from the starting lineup. As he did last week, Regan Smith will be behind the No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet formerly driven by Kurt Busch.
David Ragan moves over from Front Row Motorsports to climb into Kyle Busch’s No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota. Meanwhile, NASCAR veteran Joe Nemechek climbs into Ragan’s No. 34 FRM Ford.
Here’s a look at the entry list:
