Testing Policy Getting Neutered

It looks like NASCAR is finally waking up the fact that their testing policy was almost a useless policy, simply because teams went and tested at non-NASCAR-sanctioned race tracks. The only down side to this was that teams had to use non-Goodyear tires, so many went and purchased B.F. Goodrich race tires, simply for testing […]

Monster Mile Looms Large This Week

So who’s going to tame the Monster Mile at Dover this weekend? It’s hard to predict, but I have a feeling Ryan Newman is finally hitting his stride after struggling the last couple of years. He looked strong at Charlotte and likes Dover, so he could be in the mix come the final 20 laps. […]

Fuel Milage Racing - For the Birds

I hate races that come down to fuel mileage. If I was NASCAR president, and it looked like fuel mileage was going to affect the outcome of the race, and that the top-10 potential finishers were having fuel issues, I’d call a mandatory yellow for fuel.

A DIfferent Take On Cheating

Currently, the driver is absolved (unless he’s the owner and crew chief) from all penalties and fines if the team gets busted with an infraction. The drivers like to play the “I […]

What’s In Dale Jr.’s Future?

I have to believe that Dale Earnhardt Jr. is feeling less confident about his decision to leave DEI at this point. What with Rick Hendrick publicly stating that “there’s no room at the inn” for Earnhardt Jr. at Hendrick Motorsports. What an awesome addition he would have been to a team that’s already threatening to […]

Can Waltrip Survive?

Is Michael Waltrip the right man to lead Toyota’s march into NASCAR? Based on results from the 1st quarter of the season, I’d say definitely not. He committed a cardinal blunder in the first race of the season (Daytona 500) by entering a car that was caught with illegal fuel additives. How does this happen? […]
