Team Preview: Front Row RacingRoss EvertsonDebut: 2005 (First Start, 2003) Wins: 0 The flagship Front Row driver has been a top 20 contender for the past few seasons. However, with a new primary sponsor, the #34 team hopes to be elevated to the next level here in 2008 with a run for a chase berth. Mark DonaqueDebut: 2007 Wins: 0 The part-time driver returns to run all 4 superspeedways. With Chad Little engines, this team could be a threat at the plate tracks. Erin KellerDebut: 2004 Wins: 1 The ex-Joe Gibbs driver has slowly been floundering as the second driver at Front Row. With tensions running high, can the #38 put together a solid season and walk away with a win or even better, a top 20-25 points finish?

Team Preview: Richard Petty EnterprisesZoe SharpDebut: 2004 (First Start, 2003) Wins: 0 Over the years, Sharp has elevated Petty Enterprises from a backmarker to a midfield team. However, they have secured several new sponsors, and switched to Chevrolet for increased support this season. Is this the year for Sharp to break through? Amanda Ward (R)Debut: 2008 (First Start, 2007) Wins: 0 Amanda Ward is the newest driver for Petty Enterprises. The rookie has accumulated a solid resume in the lower divisions and looks to use her experience in the top series. Hopefully she can get climb for a top 25 result... or maybe even better?

Team Preview: Paroday RacingAustin BellDebut: 2000 Wins: 0 A driver who has been around since the beginning, Bell has slowly slipped from a solid Michael Waltrip Racing to now at Paroday Racing, a backmarker team. Bell looks to spark something within the team and bring them up the order. Lindsay SimmonsDebut: 2004 (First Start, 2003) Wins: 0 The ex-driver of the #10 for TriStar-Evernham (or at the time, Evernham Motorsports), Simmons has been relegated back to her initial cup team for the past season, where she showed decent speed compared to her teammate. However, Bell will be a more formidable opponent, and Simmons looks to impress if she wants to stay in the top series.

Can the team survive another year, or will Coyne be relegated back to the second tier series?

Team Preview: Steinhausser RacingTravis Ruttman (R)Debut: 2008 Wins: 0 The rookie driver has some lower series experience which may help a little, but what will really help is the influx of cash the team will be getting with new sponsor 76. However, Steinhausser is among the smallest teams on the grid - will they be able to overcome the lack of labor and skill? Scott Price (R)Debut: 2008 Wins: 0 Another rookie, Price has decent experience and tends to punch above his weight in the standings. In addition, Price is a nice little road racer, which will give him quite an advantage at a few tracks, potentially some top 10's even...

Team Preview: Majeski MotorsportsScheme for both Lia and Bowyer.Donny LiaDebut: 2003 Wins: 0 After several years in backmarker rides, Lia will reunite with Majeski Motorsports and run a part time schedule. Rachel BowyerDebut: 2006 Wins: 0 After being kicked from Richard Childress at the end of 2006, Bowyer has slowly fallen further into obscurity. There seems to be no hope for her as she will run part-time for a perennial backmarker team. Ty MajeskiDebut: 2002 Wins: 1 Owner-driver Majeski is trying to resurrect the remains of BK Racing, but it will be a tough task. However, Majeski does have a win in the cup series, as well as years of experience which could help the team out.
