NASCAR Breaking News from Atlanta

Pole-sitter Ryan Newman will start at the rear of the pack tomorrow. Even though he qualified first, his crew decided that the engine was junk and replaced it. That is an automatic move to the end of the field.

NASCAR Sponsorship Controversy

There is more controversy at NASCAR. AT&T is reportedly suing NASCAR over Jeff Burton’s use of the Cingular logo on the 31 RCR car.

And then there is Nextel […]
