Notes: Teams in all three NASCAR national touring series in action at
Phoenix this weekend will be running the same tire codes, though the
Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series tires will be branded "Goodyear
Eagle," while the Camping World Truck Series tires will be branded
"Goodyear Wrangler" . . . this is the same combination of left- and
right-side tires that Sprint Cup and Nationwide teams ran at Phoenix
this past March, as well as last November . . . as on most NASCAR ovals
one mile or less in length, teams will not run inner liners in their
tires at Phoenix . . . Goodyear held a tire test with the 2013 Sprint
Cup cars at Phoenix last month . . . teams and drivers participating in
that test were the
No. 1 Earnhardt Ganassi Racing Chevrolet with Jamie McMurray
No. 2 Penske Racing Ford with Brad Keselowski,
No. 11 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota with Denny Hamlin
No. 14 Stewart Haas Racing Chevrolet with Tony Stewart
No. 27 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet with Paul Menard
No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Chevrolet with Regan
Smith and No. 99 Roush Fenway Ford with Carl Edwards
The results of that test will determine Goodyear's tire set-up for the Phoenix race weekend scheduled for March 1-3, 2013.
