Hello, race fans. Last weekend, the NASCAR Sprint Cup and Nationwide series were each racing in Dover, Del. Neither race was adversely affected by weather.
Coming into Dover, Juan Montoya averaged a 24.4 average finish with just one top 10 in five starts, but closed out Sunday with a solid fourth place.
DOVER, Del. – Saturday saw Richard Childress Racing’s Nationwide program resemble the juggernaut that Kevin Harvick took to the 2006 Series crown.
DOVER, Del. – The biggest highlight of Saturday’s Nationwide Series race came not on the track, but on pit road following the checkered flag.

There was also plenty of press regarding the charity competition within Joe Gibbs Racing between Busch and Denny Hamlin. Meanwhile, Carl …
I firmly oppose the joke of a points system also known as the Chase, but I’d be lying if I said that points have not been on my brain all weekend. Be it what needs to happen to keep Ryan Newman in or Kyle Busch out, I’ve spent more time calculating than actually anticipating the awesome …
Swapping Atlanta Motor Speedway’s date to Labor Day weekend certainly improved attendance at AMS. But did the quality of racing match the fans’ enthusiasm?
Greetings, race fans. Labor Day weekend brought a split weekend schedule.
