From a NASCAR Fan’s View It used to be that road races were just weekends to be survived and not many drivers liked having to turn both left and right. Some were often replaced for these races by “ringers” familiar with road racing and sometimes the “ringers” would even perform really well. Other times, well,… Continue reading Road Racing at Cota Up Next

From a NASCAR Fan’s View Well… There’s one thing that can still be said about the Atlanta Motor Speedway and that’s that it is fast. Of course, it is a little treacherous for the drivers with it being run like Daytona and Talladega. With just 550 horsepower and the teams facing the new configuration for… Continue reading Atlanta Is Up Next For The Cup Teams

From a NASCAR Fan’s View The big question for the race this weekend at Phoenix Raceway is how the new rules package will affect not only the drivers but, the racing in general. After the practice session, it appears the drivers have pretty much gotten a grip on the difference in handling but there are… Continue reading Phoenix With New Rules Is Next

From a NASCAR Fan’s View Things might be a little different at Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the spring race this year. NASCAR made some rule changes to the cars and it remains to be seen how those changes will affect the competition. Of course, there are several things at Vegas that can affect it… Continue reading Vegas Is Next For The Cup Teams

From a NASCAR Fan’s View To be upfront, I’m not sure this title will actually line up with what is planned for the Auto Club Speedway at Fontana. That’s because there are mixed signals about what is in store for the speedway after this race. As it stands, I suppose I’ll have to agree with… Continue reading Who Will Win The Final At Fontana

Ok… The qualifying has been done. The Duels have been run. It’s two practices later and now it’s time for the 2023 Daytona 500. But wait a minute… you already knew that, didn’t you? Yeah, I guess you did. My next question is, what did you think of the Duels? Did they really whet your… Continue reading The 2023 Daytona 500

From a NASCAR Fan’s View Well… It’s that time again. Time for the start of the NASCAR season and it begins for the second year at the Coliseum in L.A. Am I excited? Well, reasonably but, I’m not ecstatic. This is a race that could be run and will likely turn into a bumper car… Continue reading The 2023 Clash At The Coliseum

From a NASCAR Fan’s View The Championship race is always a different kind of race compared to others in the NASCAR season. It is basically two races in one. Most of the time it turns out that the winner is usually the winner of the Championship and the final race of the season but, this… Continue reading The Final Four Race For The Championship At Phoenix

From a NASCAR Fan’s View Everyone knows Martinsville is special track and a challenge for everyone that takes it on. This weekend will be no different and it may be even more intense than usual if for no other reason than just one of the remaining eight drivers is a definite for the final four.… Continue reading Short Track Intensity For The Cutoff At Martinsville

From a NASCAR Fan’s View Hello from the Southwest coast of Florida. Gee, it’s good to be back in touch with you all again. Hurricane Ian forced me to take an extended break from posting anything NASCAR related and actually kept me from getting much of anything done. It was tough. We were without power… Continue reading Homestead Is Next In The Playoffs

From a NASCAR Fan’s View So… round one of the playoffs is in the books and, as unbelievable as it sounds, not one playoff driver won any of the three races in it. Yeah, I know you’ve heard that a lot in the last week or so but, it is worth repeating. I mentioned last… Continue reading Texas Starts The Playoffs Round Of Twelve

From a NASCAR Fan’s View It’s more than just another Saturday Night under the lights. It’s more than just a catch phrase of, “It’s Bristol, baby.” It’s even more than just another elimination race. This one is important in so many ways it’s even hard to put into words – although many have tried and… Continue reading Bristol And The First Round Elimination
