Fantasy NASCAR Not So Fast: Las Vegas Kobalt Tools 400
Juan Pablo Montoya – Juan Pablo Montoya hasn’t had a whole lot of success at Las Vegas. He finished 3rd in 2011 but all five of his other finishes are 19th or worse. Another factor that is a cause for concern is the fact that he’s only finished on the lead lap twice. Last year [...]
Stewart-Haas Racing buys the #49 teams owner points for Danica Patrick
Today it was announced that Stewart-Haas Racing has purchased the #49 teams owner points for Danica Patrick. Last year that team finished 42nd in owner points.

In 2013 Danica Patrick will race full-time in the Sprint Cup Series. In 2012 Tony Stewart picked the toughest tracks for her to run on so let’s hope that prepared her for what she’ll encounter. In her limited schedule in the top series she really struggled but shown improvement at the end. Her Phoenix and [...]
Average Practice Speeds: Charlotte – Coca-Cola 600
This week’s race at Charlotte Motor Speedway is the longest race of the season at 600 miles, and many teams will have a limit on how many laps they allow the drivers to run in practice. Luckily for you, I created a “Lap Logger” page that lists all the drivers in order depending on how [...]
Charlotte Coca Cola 600: Drivers To Avoid
Paul Menard – Paul Menard finished 8th in the 2010 Coca Cola 600. That marked his first top fifteen finish at Charlotte since 2006 (pre rookie year). Menard’s track history at Charlotte is terrible. In his ten races he’s only finished in the top 20 in three of them. In the last three high-speed intermediate [...]

Can BK Make It Two Wins In A Row? This week the Sprint Cup series is at Darlington Raceway for the first and last time in the 2012 season. There are two things I can guarantee for Saturday night: we’ll see plenty of drivers making contact with the wall and we will see a whole [...]

The future of Red Bull Racing?
There’s only four races left in the season and yet there’s no word about what will happen to Red Bull Racing at the end of the season. The conventional thinking is that either they will get bought or they’ll close down. I don’t think Red Bull Racing is going anywhere though. I don’t have a [...]
