Quick, the drivers with the most laps led in NASCAR Camping World Truck Series competition this year – go. Obviously Erik Jones has to figure into your guesses, even though he’s only won a single race all season.

When I was growing up, the one NASCAR race weekend I could always count on seeing each year was one at Michigan International Speedway, whether it was the June or August race (the latter, usually). Good thing, too – the track didn’t always have a stellar reputation for putting on a great show on TV, …

Boo, hiss, no NASCAR Sprint Cup Series action this weekend. OK, maybe that’s not the worst thing in the world. Nice to take a break every once in a while, especially since we’re ever-so nearing the part of the season when there’s just no off-weekend at all for the series, Homestead a beacon of hope …
