The 2018 Daytona 500 left the longest lasting impression I’ve had from the Great American Race since seeing Trevor Bayne score his improbable triumph in 2011, returning Wood Brothers Racing to relevance. As memorable a race as that was, and as stellar as the No. 21 driver was throughout that Speedweeks, …

It’s hard to view any acquisition by International Speedway Corporation (er… NASCAR) without massive trepidation as a race fan. The company monopolizes the schedule to the point that the substantive changes needed to give stock car racing’s big leagues the needed flavor and novelty to excite fans new and old …

On a lap 92 restart, Sheldon Creed rode off into the sunset of the 2018 ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards season, scoring a picture perfect restart to drive away from Harrison Burton and Michael Self to win his fourth race of the year. Creed, who clinched the 2018 title …

Just like Springfield, a dirt ringer in the Venturini Motorsports camp used a late race restart to take control for good en route to the checkered flag. This Monday, USAC standout Logan Seavey stormed to the front and weathered several late restarts, including one that saw Will Kimmel actually jump …

Just like at Salem, Christian Eckes was a contender, but not the dominant car for much of the day. Just like Salem, Eckes got better and better on restarts as the race went on. And just like Salem, Eckes was able to hold off the dominant car from the final …
