The People's Choice - Texas

With the help of you, the Internet, the lineup has been set for this Sunday's Sprint Cup race at Texas Motor Speedway. Remember: Once the eight drivers for our lineup are selected, we are now using qualifying order to break any ties between drivers who get the same number of votes. That said, here's this week's lineup:

A List. And we got a chance to put that new tiebreaker to work right away, since two drivers tied for the most votes on this list: Greg Biffle and Jeff Gordon. Since Biffle qualified third, he gets the start, while Gordon sits on the bench.

B List. We had one clear-cut winner in this vote: Kevin Harvick. The next three drivers were Jeff Burton, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Joey Logano. Burton qualified sixth for Sunday's race, so he gets the start, while Earnhardt and Logano will watch from the bench this week.

C List. Another list, another tie, this time between A.J. Allmendinger and Scott Speed. Allmendinger, by virtue of qualifying 17th, gets the starting spot.

The poll results appear below. We'll be back tomorrow with the forecasts for the top 10.
