Martin Truex Jr. Starting Toward Front of Sprint Showdown

  Martin Truex Jr. will start in the 7th position for the Sprint Showdown. He will need to be one of the two cars that transfer to the All-Star event if he wants any chance at the $1 million prize.
  Should he not qualify, he could also earn a spot with the fan vote. However, Dale Earnhardt Jr. hasn't qualified yet either. If Dale Jr. does not race his way in, then he will certainly be the fans choice.
  While there are 27 cars scheduled to take the green, Truex Jr.'s competition should come from front row starters David Ragan and AL Allmendinger, along with Dale Jr. and Jeff Burton.
  Let's hope our Jersey representative can get a transfer spot. He was the winner of this event last year, and then finished a close second to Kurt Busch. Can he improve by one position this year? If so it will mean a cool million.
