With the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series’ visit to Sonoma Raceway this weekend, it marks one of two road course races on the MENCS schedule for 2017. In 2018, the Charlotte Motor Speedway “roval” will be added, making the total number road courses on the schedule jump to three. Should …

In the late 1990s, early 2000s, a young, brash babyface driver named Elliott Sadler was making his way up the rankings of the NASCAR national touring division, with the goal, reaching the top and winning championships.

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series made its first stop in the Motor City this weekend. Well, close to it anyways. You could consider it Detroit’s backyard, sideyard, neighbor, etc. Geography lesson aside, we’ll just call it the track where all the manufacturers go to see their brand in Victory …

That’s because 2017 is Theriault’s first opportunity to race full-time for a series title, doing so in the ARCA Racing Series for Ken Schrader Racing.
