Hello, and welcome to the 2019 NASCAR season! In only three weeks the green flag will wave at Daytona International Speedway for the running of 61st annual “Great American Race”. But, even sooner than that Speed Weeks starts. That is only 2 weeks away. Now before we get into what’s new for 2019 there is […]
2018 Homestead-Miami Speedway, Ford EcoBoost 400
We’re all set for championship weekend unless there is some major points penalty handed out by NASCAR this week. The ‘Big Three’ will be joined by Joey Logano in a best finisher take all race. There are two Ford’s and two Toyota’s among these drivers and four different teams being represented. I want to thank […]
2018 ISM Raceway, Can-Am 500
Congratulations to Kevin Harvick who won his eighth race of the season and snared a spot in the championship race coming up in two weeks. Right now the pressure is off both him and Joey Logano while the other six drivers in the playoffs are all going to be fighting for those final two spots. […]
2018 Texas Motor Speedway, AAA Texas 500
Congratulations to Joey Logano, who is the first driver to punch his ticket for the championship race with his win at Martinsville this past weekend. Martin Truex Jr. was not happy after the race as he passed Logano with one lap to go and Logano gave him a bump entering turn three on the final […]

2018 Kansas Speedway, Hollywood Casino 400
The mayhem at Talladega is over and Aric Almirola has prevailed and moved himself to the third round of the playoffs. Okay, maybe there wasn’t a lot of mayhem, but the end sure turned out different than it was looking before the late race caution came out. The only thing that stopped all of the […]
2018 Talladega Superspeedway, 1000Bulbs.com 500

2018 DOVER INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY, Gander Outdoors 400
The first round of the playoffs are in the book and Jimmie Johnson, Denny Hamlin, Austin Dillon, and Erik Jomes were eliminated with Johnson eliminating himself by going into the final chicayne as he was trying to pass Martin Truex Jr. for the win. If he would have been happy to finish second he would […]
2018 Charlotte Motor Speedway Road Course, Bank of America Roval 400
Once again I have to write this before the second race as I will be out of internet range again early next week. I want to apologize to those of you who submit questions to me while I am away that I can’t answer for you. Hopefully I can make it home early enough next […]
2018 Richmond Raceway, Federated Auto Parts 400
I am writing this article before the race weekend in Las Vegas even gets started because I am out of town and won’t have many chances to get internet access once again this coming week. I should be back to civilization sometime around the middle of the week to answer your questions and possibly even […]
