A Seventh Time For “Five Time”? Not only was the practice schedule completely idiotic this weekend, but NASCAR.com had technical difficulties (surprised?) so fantasy racers are even more in the dark for this weekend’s Coca-Cola 600. No average speeds were available for the first practice on Saturday, and I consider Happy Hour speeds as worthless [...]
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 [...]
Credit: Jamie Squire/Getty Images Get Out Your Dart Board This week’s article is going to be a little different than usual. These races at Talladega and Daytona really are a crap shoot, and anybody can win. Heck, even Dave Blaney finished 3rd here last fall. Below you will find my favorites, some “out of the [...]
“Epic Swag” Looking Good We’re going to have some good old fashioned Saturday night racing tomorrow night, so it’s fitting that Mark Martin and that #55 Toyota are fast…again. Just like in Phoenix, “Epic Swag” grabbed the pole for Saturday night’s race. Carl Edwards will start 2nd, followed by Kevin Harvick and the sudden qualifying [...]
Credit: Geoff Burke/Getty Images for NASCAR “A mountain green colored race car is a fast race car.” That quote is from Jimmie Johnson, which he said on Twitter after Happy Hour on Friday (click here to view). Practice speeds were somewhat inconclusive (to say the least) this week, and if you don’t know why you [...]
Credit: Tyler Barrick/Getty Images for NASCAR Phoenix Is Still Jimmie’s House After a long, tiring, and exciting speedweeks in Daytona, the Sprint Cup Series has made the trek across the country to Phoenix for this year’s Subway Fresh Fit 500. After this race last season, in case you forgot, Phoenix International Raceway was completely repaved [...]
2011 Stats: Points Finish 2nd, 1 Win, 19 Top Fives, 26 Top Tens, Average Running Position 12.0, Average Finish 9.3, Laps Led 903, Driver Rating 101.0 Strengths- Is there a better intermediate track driver then Carl Edwards? There’s some who are in his league, but by no means do I think anyone could say another [...]
And The 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Champion Is….. Three points, two drivers, one champion. Carl Edwards started off this weekend being fast in practice, and brought that over into qualifying where he won his third and final pole for this 2011 season. Martin Truex, Jr. will start beside Cousin Carl on Sunday, and for [...]

Where There’s Smoke, There’s Fire Judging by Saturday’s qualifying session, the Kobalt Tools 500 definitely has the potential to be a wreck-fest, maybe even worse than the one we had at this track in February. Car after car was sliding around this newly configured Phoenix International Raceway, but it was Matt Kenseth who got the [...]
This Is The Week To Leave Edwards “In The Garage” There’s not much information to go off of this weekend, so I’m going to look at past history as a major indicator for who is going to be good in Sunday’s Tums Fast Relief 500 at Martinsville Speedway. As you probably read in Ryan’s Scouting [...]
