Mark Martin scoops up Vegas Nationwide Series win, Danica scores first top 5

Today’s Nationwide series race started out with a snore but ended in a bang as Mark Martin won one for the old guys, stealing a win on the last lap of the race. Martin took advantage of the misfortune of Brad Keselowski who had a lock on the win until he blew a tire and hit the wall on the white flag lap. Instead of a win, Keselowski limped home to a heartbreaking fourth place finish. In the early laps, however, the race was shaping up to be a Kyle Bush blowout. At one point in the race, he had lapped what seemed like all but the top 10. But fast-forward to lap 123. Donnie Nuenberger spun in turn 4 to bring out the yellow, and a new round of pit stops. Crew Chief Jason Ratcliff called for a four-tire change on the 18 car putting Busch in the 10th spot on the restart. What happened next is what I’m calling the “XBox Driving Moment of the Week”. This tribute is only given to drivers that demonstrate a driving style that should only be attempted in the...

Bruton Smith on prize money in NASCAR, says Bristol probably not a sellout

Bruton Smith weighed in on how NASCAR is parsing out price money in a story from NASCAR.com: “I would like to take half of the money from the points fund and give it to the winners of the races. I’d like to see a $300,000 to $400,000 difference between first and second place. That would get the drivers’ attention and you know the fans would love it.” Well, Bruton is right. Currently winners are barely getting more prize money than the second place finisher. On the other...

Non-call In Pits Opens Door For Edwards’ Vegas Victory

Image by Bristol Motor Speedway & Dragway via Flickr I was traveling on Sunday and managed to watch the “tape” of the race thanks to our good friends at DirecTV and their fantastic DVR. It didn’t take long to figure out what happened: Sunday’s race was was Tony Stewart’s to lose, and he did just that. And in the pits, no less. In fact, pit lane was nearly the only place where something significant happened this week. Crew chiefs up and down pit road earned...

Memorial Day Weekend Racing Review

Dario Franchitti dominates to win second Indy 500 The 2010 Indy 500 won’t go down in the history books as a race for the ages, but it did have some interesting story lines and one terrible crash. The big story was the absolutely destruction of the field by Dario’s Target car which seemed to have a gear nobody else had which enabled him to lead 155 laps. Unfortunately for the fans, no only did Dario’s domination make for somewhat of an uneventful race at the front of the field,...
