08:40 AM ET 03.14 | Earlier this morning NASCAR announced that they have reinstated Nationwide Series driver Jeremy Clements. Clements was suspended a few weeks ago for making a statement to a member of the media with a racial slur. Today, Clements is cleared to compete after completing NASCAR's Diversity and Ethics in Sports program. Clements released a statement shortly after his reinstatement. He will be returning to the track this weekend and will race in Saturday's True Grit Chips 300 at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Should get qualifing in today at Bristol, 64 the high and partly sunny , but on Sunday 80% rain and high 52, keep our fingers crossed that weatherman is wrong.

Favorites to win the race Sunday, I would say have to be the 48 car, 5 Car, and the 18 and always at Bristol you have to Qualify up front to have a real chance.
