Fire 'em up. I associate the clash with pole winners but the eligibility rules have varied over the years. I had to look it up on Wikipedia to see how it has changed:

I remember one year that Ryan Newman had so many poles the year before that Autoweek magazine doctored a picture of the parade lap with Newman's car in all of the positions.
 
Another obligatory weather post.

Current rain chances for the week:

Saturday - 80%
Sunday - 50%
Thursday - 40%

Next weekend looks good as of now but it's 40% Tue-Fri so if that gets pushed back any there could literally be rain every single day of on track activity.
