Cup Drivers Lining Up Backups for Nashville

Well the first big split weekend for NASCAR's top two series is coming up as the Sprint Cup series will be in Pocono while the Nationwide series will be in Nashville and teams are starting to lineup backup drivers to fill in for the primary drivers in case something goes wrong during the weekend. Here are what some of theams have planned:

Roush Racing- Carl Edwards will have good friend Jason Hedlesky fill in for him, while Auggie Vidovich will fill in for David Ragan. Casey Atwood will practice the #16 for Greg Biffle, but Biffle will qualify the car as it is not locked into the field.

Josh Wise will fill in for David Reutimann in the 99 Aaron's Dream Machine. Plans are unknown as who will fill in for Clint Bowyer and Kyle Busch.
