You still have a few hours to vote on the People's Pitstop lineup for Saturday night's NASCAR Sprint Cup race. While you ponder your vote, here are some facts about this week's site.
Track basics: Richmond International Raceway is the quintessential short track. It's a three-quarter-mile oval that hosted its first NASCAR-sanctioned race in 1953. It's not older than dirt, but that was the original surface.
Recent winners: Kyle Busch (2009), Clint Bowyer (2008), Jimmie Johnson (2007).
Who wins here a lot: You name the driver, and he's probably got at least one win here. Among active NASCAR drivers, Johnson, Tony Stewart and Dale Earnhardt Jr. are tied for the lead with (drum roll, please) three apiece.
Short track, long name, cool story: Why is this post titled "The People's Facts - Richmond"? Because I'm not sure how many of you would have read a post titled "The People's Facts - Crown Royal Presents the Heath Calhoun 400." Who's Heath? This guy.

Please vote for the lineup for the Internet's favorite fantasy auto racing team now. We'll be back with the results.
