The weather Saturday morning at Martinsville Speedway continued to play havoc with wet conditions unfavorable for track activity, and has forced NASCAR Officials to cancel the morning NSCS practice session; as well as, qualifying.

Sunday’s TUMS Fast Relief 500 starting lineup will now be based upon owner points, and the Roush Fenway Racing teammates, Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth, will start first and second respectively, Brad Keselowski will start third, Tony Stewart fourth and Kevin Harvick will start fifth.

Rounding out the top-ten starting positions will be Kyle Busch starting from sixth, defending series champion, Jimmie Johnson seventh, Kurt Busch eighth, Dale Earnhardt Jr. ninth and Jeff Gordon will start from the tenth position.

Failing to make the starting lineup were the #92 driven by Dennis Setzer and the #75 driven by Derrike Cope.

The teams are scheduled to get their “Happy Hour” (final) practice session started around 12:00 PM (ET) this afternoon (which was originally set for qualifying, and after NCWTS qualifying)  with SPEED covering the action.

The TUMS Fast Relief 500 is scheduled to get underway on Sunday, Oct. 30th, approximately around 1:45 PM (ET) with ESPN beginning their (pre-race) television coverage at 1:00 PM (ET).
