This was frustrating. after leading for nearly the entire race, Kyle Busch was passed by Carl Edwards on Lap 470, with the help of a little nudge.

I’m watching the race today at Watkins Glen, and they keep stating that it is bad to get stuck having to pit during a caution, but they have never explained why, at least not while I have been watching. It just happened to Junior Earnhardt a little while ago, and it pretty much ruined his [...]

Didn’t see this coming when I became the father of two girls. The older one started showing interest in the remote control toy racing cars the boys had in our local park. Then both she and her younger sister started noticing whenever I passed by a Nascar race while channel surfing among other sporting events [...]
