NASCAR Fans View

from a NASCAR Fan’s View After more than a year, the NASCAR Cup teams head back to the road course at Sonoma. It will be a challenge and it will be very much business as usual. What I mean by that is that there will be no practice and no qualifying. One good thing though… … Continue reading "Cup Teams Head Back to Sonoma"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View There are a few differences for the race this weekend at The Charlotte Motor Speedway. For starters, they got to practice and they get to qualify. For some, just the fact that they got to spend fifty minutes of practice and try some different setups may make a big difference … Continue reading "The 2021 Coca-Cola 600 At Charlotte"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View Let’s see… the Cup teams are taking on a road course called Circuit of the Americas (uh, that’s COTA for short) and it is a brand-new notebook for them. At least they get fifty minutes of practice to get a start on it. Another thing that might help is that … Continue reading "Cup Teams Take On COTA For The First Time"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View There is a Monster that often rears its head in NASCAR. That Monster resides at the one-mile oval called the Dover International Speedway in Dover, Delaware. This Monster has resided at this location since 1969. Sometimes the Monster is docile but will reach out and grab a car or two … Continue reading "Taking On The Monster At Dover"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View Darlington is one of the oldest tracks on the NASCAR circuit. It’s been around a long time. Along with all of those years, are a lot of memories that cover a lot of cars and drivers from the distant past to the present. Also, along with those cars and drivers … Continue reading "Throwback Weekend At Darlington"

I find it fascinating that Bar BQ seems to enter almost every conversation I’ve heard about this weekend’s race and that includes the talking heads on TV and elsewhere. … Continue reading "400 Miles At Kansas Speedway Is Next"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View When the NASCAR Cup teams take on the Talladega Super Speedway, there’s not a lot that can be said that’s new about Talladega but then, why should there be. Talladega has always been a weekend many look forward to and this one is no different. I guess the real question … Continue reading "Taking On Talladega"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View The Cup teams take it to Richmond this weekend and that makes three short tracks in a row for this 2021 NASCAR Cup Season. There is something different about this weekend though; Martin Truex Jr comes into this weekend as the first repeat winner this season and Richmond is a … Continue reading "Cup Teams Take It To Richmond"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View Well… It’s another Saturday night at Martinsville. Put another way, just another Saturday night under lights at the short track known as the Martinsville Speedway and Martinsville is Martinsville and will always be Martinsville. It has been around a long time (it’s the oldest on the NASCAR circuit) and it … Continue reading "Saturday Night Short Tracking At Martinsville"

from a NASCAR Fan’s View So… NASCAR Cup cars are taking it back to the dirt. That’s something that hasn’t happened in a very long time. I know you’ve heard all about the history of NASCAR on dirt since they decided to make Bristol a dirt track for this year’s race so I won’t repeat … Continue reading "Dirt Tracking Bristol"
