Christopher Bell - Round Three of the Dash 4 Cash – #NASCAR
Christopher Bell
Sadler’s experience gives him a slight advantage over Christopher Bell, who will be making his series track debut at Talladega Superspeedway this weekend. Though it will be his first series start, Bell does have some experience at Talladega. He has made three NASCAR Camping World Truck Series starts at the 2.66-mile facility posting one pole and an average finish of 7.0; including a runner-up finish last season.

Matt Tifft - Round Three of the Dash 4 Cash – #NASCAR
Matt Tifft
Another driver looking for his own big check is Richard Childress Racing’s Matt Tifft. The Hinckley, Ohio, native has made two series starts at Talladega, posting an average finish of 7.0 – his best average finish on a track where he has made multiple starts.

And last but not least, is Team Penske’s Austin Cindric. Like Bell, Cindric will also be making his series track debut this weekend at Talladega Superspeedway, but has also made two NASCAR Camping World Truck Series starts at the historic facility, posting a best finish of fifth last season.

In addition to the $100,000 awarded to each Dash 4 Cash winner, Comcast will also donate a total of $40,000 to local organizations within race markets on behalf of the Internet Essentials program, the nation’s largest program for getting low-income households online, having connected 4 million low-income Americans since 2011.

Comcast's $10,000 Internet Essentials donation during each race weekend will go to:
  • Bristol: Quest Foundation for Washington County Schools
  • Richmond: Code Virginia, which partners with local schools to encourage computer science education
  • Talladega: Boys and Girls Club of Gadsden and Etowah County

Ryan Preece took home the first $100,000 bonus this season at Bristol Motor Speedway and then Elliott Sadler grabbed the second monster check at Richmond last weekend.

Now Sadler has a chance to make it two Dash 4 Cash bonuses in a row if he can win it again this weekend at Talladega. Sadler has made nine series starts at Talladega, posting two wins (2014, 2016), four top fives, six top 10s and an average finish of 10.4.

The top Dash 4 Cash-eligible finishing driver wins the $100,000 prize at Talladega and will advance to a have a shot at the prize at Dover (the last race in the 2018 Dash 4 Cash program) along with the three-highest finishing series regulars.
