Coming off an exciting 2009 season with Dario Franchitti winning the championship at the last race of the season there should little doubt that as many as five drivers with three teams will be contending for the title this year.

It was interpreted to mean NASCAR would look the other way at a nudge here, a spin there, and all the retaliatory bumping and banging that goes on over a very long season.No one could have predicted, though, that NASCAR's first true test would come a mere four races into the season following a frightening accident at Atlanta.

So he swapped entire crews, moved around management and hired new people. After a year of numerous moves designed to get his team back on track, Childress is finally seeing tangible progress.

Her primary goal: simply finish the race and learn as much as she can along the way, calling it "300 miles of practice."
