TALLADEGA, Ala. -- So much goes into a successful run at Talladega Superspeedway. There's the strategy of whether to stay at the front of the pack, or when to make the move to try and get there. There's position and sheer good fortune in relation to the Big One. There's recognition of the placement of the start/finish line, which is not at the top of the tri-oval, but pushed all the way over toward Turn 1.
