Join me in cheering for the start of the 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup season. It’s time for us NASCAR fans to stand up and make a whole lot of noise!
What will be the biggest story of NASCAR 2011?
Any race that Michael Waltrip can qualify for AND finish has to be a high point.
JJ Yeley only went the distance in three races last year (Daytona in July, Infineon and Phoenix in November).
Unsatisfactory results and a lack of confidence in performance led to many questions about Scott Speed’s future with Red Bull Racing.
Sickness for Brian Vickers and another successful season in the Nationwide Series kept Reed Sorenson on the Sprint Cup radar for another year.
Undoubtedly, going by the statistics, finishing eighth at Sonoma in June would have to be considered the zenith of Boris Said’s 2010 NASCAR Cup season.
Obviously, the Chicago race was a high point, where David Reutimann ran down Jeff Gordon in the late stages, grabbing his only victory of 2010.
