2009 Key Stats

Nov 4 Edwards is a three-time Texas winner with victories in November 2005 and both races in 2008. Those are his three top-five finishes and three of his four top-10s in nine starts. He was 10th in April. "Texas has been one of my best race tracks the last couple years," Edwards said. "In the spring we were leading the race and ended up having a little trouble on pit road during the last stop. I felt like myself, Greg (Biffle) and Matt (Kenseth) were all in a position to win that race. I'm real excited about going back because I feel like it's one of our strongest race tracks. It's a special place to me for a number of reasons, but I think that our record at Texas over the years is better than any other track we go to, so I'm real excited about going there and going for the win."
Edwards finished 14th at Talladega after leading twice for two laps.
Crew chief Bob Osborne is bringing chassis RK-587, which finished 15th at Richmond. "We're taking a different car than the one we raced there in the spring, but hopefully this one will be just as good, if not better," Osborne said. "It would be great to get a win before the season ends, and I think Texas is one of our best chances."
