I've tried to set you all up with that initially, but yes - please do that.

I'll go ahead and apply that to each team once I add the last one in.

Earnhardt more than likely will not race since he has concussion symptoms still. Jeff Gordon will likely be taking his place though.

No. A couple guys are backups that only race a few times a year. They are basically warm bodies to get the car on the track. Easiest way to get to do it is take the top 20 drivers in the standings.

http://www.nascar.com/en_us/sprint-cup-series/standings.html


Earnhardt probably won't race but just use whoever is in the 88. It'll probably be Jeff Gordon who is not the typical backup driver. He is one of the greatest racers ever and has the 2nd most wins at Watkins Glen. The most is by the aforementioned old guy having the hot retirement year.

P.S. The Glen has right turns, too.
