2008 AARON'S 499 INFORMATION
The home track of Talladega Superspeedway, Talladega, Alabama brings you the Aaron's 499 on the 27th of April, 2008 at 1.30 ET. Due to a green-white-checker finish, veteran Jeff Gordon brought home the win in 2007 making it his third win of the same event in a meager 4 consecutive years. He has also won the Talladega event, which has been known by several names in the past, countless times. The Superspeedway has a knack for hosting memorable races. In the year 1997, this event was the fastest NASCAR race recorded to date. Another feature that makes this race special is the fact that the Aaron's 499 runs with restrictor plates. Only the AMP Energy 500, the Coke 400, and the Daytona 500 have this distinction.
