No new Top 10 this week, so enjoy this classic from the archives about Tony Stewart’s rough Sunday at Dover during this year’s Chase for the Championship.
Frontstretch, one of the fastest growing sites on the internet for NASCAR news and commentary, is pleased to welcome veteran NASCAR writer Matt McLaughlin to their roster of talented writers for the 2007 season. McLaughlin, who became part of the Fronstretch family beginning on January 1st, is familiar to many fans who have been reading this often outspoken columnist since he began writing about the sport in 1997.
Earning the third starting spot for the Daytona 500 with a Duel win, Elliott Sadler went on to lead five laps in the race before crossing the finish line in fourth.
Ken Schrader and company had their moments, and a nice run at Richmond in September was one of those bright spots.
At Michigan in June, threatening weather caused crew chief Jimmy Elledge to gamble, forcing Reed Sorenson to stay out on worn tires to try and steal the win.
Kyle Petty’s best finish on the year was an eighth at Bristol in the spring, but the high point might have come after he fought his way back into the Top 35.
Tony Raines managed to keep Bill Saunders, owner of the No. 96 car, high enough in owner points to guarantee the team would make the race each week.
When Bristol rolled around, Scott Riggs was determined to to get his team to victory lane, even if that meant ruffling the feathers of a four-time Cup champion.
As you gather to celebrate the holidays with family, friends, and loved ones, the Frontstretch would like to wish you all the best during this joyous season and thank you – our fans – for giving us joy all season long. You fuel the passion that is our writing fire, and we hope this holiday season finds you safe and sound around the people you love.
