UAW Ford 500

The UAW Ford 500 is a NASCAR Nextel Cup stock car race held at Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Alabama. The UAW Ford 500 is also one of four races currently run with restrictor plates, the others being the Aaron's 499, the Pepsi 400, and the Daytona 500. Through 1996, the race was normally held in early August or late July. In 1997, it was moved, after overwhelming fans' requests, to early October due to the uncomfortably hot summer temperatures in the Alabama area.
