Hello, readers. I’m back for entry No. 45 in a limitless series in which I look into the TV telecasts for NASCAR. This will not be a long piece, or even a critique, in general. This is more of a reaction piece. As many of you already know, ESPN announced on Wednesday that Dr. Jerry …
Steve Addington was announced as Pat Tryson’s replacement at the helm of Kurt Busch’s No. 2 team. Will they contend for the Cup?
Hello, race fans. Hope you had a great start to the holiday season! After a few weeks off, it’s time to give a little NASCAR TV update on what’s gone on so far this offseason. Quite a few pieces of news have actually broken on the TV front since Homestead, so let’s get right to …
Well, with Tuesday’s announcement (not broadcast on television, but streamed online at GoDaddy.com) that Danica Patrick will run a limited schedule in the Nationwide Series in 2010, along with the ARCA Racing Series presented by Re/Max and Menards race at Daytona on February 6, the question of whether Danica will try stock cars or not …

Jimmie Johnson won his fourth consecutive title last weekend, the first driver to win four in a row and fourth to win four or more titles in the history of the sport. But should an asterisk go into the record books because Johnson won under the Chase system?
Greetings, race fans and welcome to this week’s critique, entry No. 43 in a long running series where I look into the quality of the race broadcasts. We’ve got a lot to talk about, so let’s get right into it. On Friday night, the Truck Series held their season finale race, the Ford 200. SPEED …
Each week, we’ll go through media reports, interviews, PR and all of our own stuff to find the best quotes from the Sprint Cup race, capturing the story of how the weekend unfolded.
