Play it safe? For Martin Truex Jr., Joey Logano, that Talladega idea won't fly

Want chaos at Talladega? You'll get it this weekend, but the track's spring Sprint Cup race is wilder.

So says Joey Logano. And Martin Truex Jr. agrees. That might be a surprise, given what's at stake this weekend.

Sunday's Hellman's 500 begins about 2:30 p.m. ET, and it is the critical third and final race in the Chase for the Sprint Cup's Round of 12. Four drivers will be eliminated from the championship series. Logano and Truex could be among them.

"You never know what you're going to get until the race starts," said Truex, who enters the race 13 points ahead of Logano.
