Speed-TV will show 3-1/2 hours of live television coverage  of the Monster Energy Cup on Saturday night. Ralph Sheheen, Jeff Emig, Ricky Carmichael and Erin Bates will call the race. Most hardcore fans are waiting to see how the split start (with 11 riders coming from two different gates and meeting 220 feet down the start), joker lane (that every rider has to take at least once during a race) and Talladega turn (borrowed from Glen Helen) work out. The winner will get $100,000, but could earn $1,000,000 if he wins all three main races.
