This weekend NASCAR heads to Talladega. While there is still two more races left until the cut from 8 to 4 in the Camping World Truck Series, there are still a few scenarios in which a driver/owner can clinch their spot into the Championship 4. Granted there are only a few scenarios that don’t include winning but no matter what else happens in the race Saturday afternoon, if the scenario happens then the ticket is punched to the Championship race.
