Two cars flunk inspection, move to back
Saturday, Apr. 25, 2009
TALLADEGA, Ala. - Robby Gordon and Reed Sorenson had their qualifying times disallowed Saturday at Talladega Superspeedway after their cars were found to be too low in post-qualifying inspection.
Gordon and Sorenson will still be in Sunday's Aaron's 499 but will start 42nd and 43rd.
Gordon's Toyota originally earned the 38th starting spot and Sorenson had the 34th spot after Saturday's time trials.
Sorenson was already going to the back of the field for the start of the race because his team changed the engine in his No. 43 Dodge on Friday.
