I went to the Daytona race and the Robby Gordon penalty is crap. They wouldn't do that to Jeff Gordon. Anyway, I'm a JR fan. Did anyone see the Teresa Who? shirts and hat? They were all over the stands at Daytona, I'm looking for them now.
I'm new here and hope I've come to the right place for the answers to my questions. I know this is a different kind of thread from most I see posted here. Anyway, I'm thinking about possibly getting a scanner as a Christmas gift for someone, but I don't know how legal or practical they are. If you take your own scanner to a NASCAR race, are... [MORE]

I am conducting market research to find out how many small to midsize companies, other than the major team sponsors, sponsor a NASCAR team (Truck, Busch, or Cup). Up until now I can only get specific "minor" sponsor information if I go to the team and/or driver page, and that's only if they post it. Very time consuming and frustrating.

When it came down to getting fresh tires or maintaining track position, crew chief Robbie Reiser's decision was an easy one. That's because it had worked for other teams all day.
With 40 laps remaining in Sunday's USG Sheetrock 400 at Chicagoland Speedway, Matt Kenseth's best chance at victory was predicated on not losing ground in the pits. ... [MORE]

Are the days of Hendrick Motorsports dominance over?
It sure seemed that way in the aftermath of Sunday's Nextel Cup event at Chicagoland Speedway, where Tony Stewart snapped a 20-race winless streak to give Joe Gibbs Racing its second victory of the year (watch video). The class of NASCAR for much of this season, Hendrick has watched as riva... [MORE]

Perhaps no one knows or understands the enigma that is Tony Stewart more than Greg Zipadelli, the crew chief on his No. 20 Chevrolet for Joe Gibbs Racing.

NASCAR has issued penalties and fines to the No. 7 team that competes in the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series, as a result of rule infractions found last week at Daytona International Speedway.
The No. 7 Ford, driven by Robby Gordon, was found to be in violation of Sections 12-4-A (actions detrimental to stock car racing); 12-4-Q (car, car parts, com... [MORE]

Tony Stewart kills me, he runs over Denny hamlin and blames him, just like he does everyone else, but, he says, there are no problems between them because he patted him on the back once before.

Saturday night's Pepsi 400 should have been an eye-opener to anyone who still adheres to the myth that, at least on the track, NASCAR is a team sport. This isn't the Tour de France, where a cadre of riders is hired to run interference for one team leader who's set up to win. This isn't Formula One, where some organizations have a pecking order...

How long are we, the paying public, going to allow NASCAR to pervert what was once a serious form of competition. NEXTEL CUP is a joke nowadays, with timed "yellow flag" instances to facilitate driver favoritism and technical specifications with gaping holes in them.

1. We had some stunning finishes at Lowe's last weekend. Were they season-savers or a nice job of mixing it up?
David Caraviello: Were they season-savers or a fluke, may be more the question. Had the final pit stops cycled a little different and fuel held out for the top contenders, we may be talking about a completely different top five.

Nice post by Kathy Pit Stop over on Thatracin, talking about how wreckless and disrespectful Juan Montoya has been to other drivers on the track, the all star race when he wrecked a bunch of cars in the Nextel Open on the first lap is a good example. She says Nascar needs to talk to him, I think the other drivers need to keep putting him into... [MORE]

Neat little blog entry on Nascar.com that talks about Jr Johnson promoting legal moonshine at the All Star Challenge and how it compares to the good ol days. Turns out, he was actually pardoned by President Reagan.
