Field Set For The Chase

Posted by Penni On September - 10 - 2008

As predicted the weather played havoc with this past weekend’s race activities. Both Nationwide and Sprint Cup series teams and drivers were able to participate in their one and only practice session on Friday. However, Friday qualifying sessions were canceled and both races were postponed until Sunday with the Cup race set to run first.

The starting lineup for both races were set according to owner points, which meant Joey Logano was not able to make his Cup debut in the 02 Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing. It does look like he will be able to attempt to qualify for this weekend’s race in Loudon, N.H. Read the rest of this entry »

Sprint Back From A Break

Posted by Penni On March - 26 - 2008

An off weekend means, not only was I bored, but I have a chance to review the first five races of the season.

I have been very pleased with the racing, so far. I think this new car, respectfully the Car of Today (no longer should it be called the Car of Tomorrow), is worth the aggravation it brought last year. The racing has improved, maybe that isn’t just due to the new car, but nonetheless it has been enjoyable to watch.

The race finishes, most of them, have been spectacular. Read the rest of this entry »

Woo-Hoo! NASCAR Is Back!

Posted by Penni On February - 6 - 2008

NASCAR’s New Year’s Eve is here — with the Budweiser Shootout at Daytona International Speedway!

It seems like the hiatus (that began nearly three months ago) went by fast and slow all at once. Of course, there were the three different testing sessions (Daytona, Las Vegas, and California) to help the time go by and feed our racing “addiction,” but in all honesty it really wasn’t enough. We really didn’t get to see any racing except for the few programs on ESPN2 and Speed that showed clips and highlights of the sessions. Real racing — as short as it may be Saturday night — is still more then enough to hold us over until the Gatorade Duels and the highly anticipated Daytona 500 next week. Don’t you agree?

There are several things to look forward to — good and bad. Read the rest of this entry »
