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, but the race turned into a fuel mileage marathon at the end. In fact, Franchitti may not have made it to the end if it were not for a terrible crash that involved Mike Conway and Ryan Hunter-Reay in the closing laps. In post-race celebrations, Ashley Judd once again displayed her love for attention, and made sure the world knows that her man is “the man”. We know, Ashley, we know. Kanaan’s charge to the front was the show Tony Kanaan put on a show for the fans, driving from...

Jeff Gordon vs. Jimmy Johnson - Here’s hoping for a sequel

During Monday’s Last rain-postponed Texas race a gimpy Denny Hamlin scampered off with the ol’ cowboy hat and his first win of 2010, a remarkable feat for a guy who went under the knife for knee surgery only three weeks prior. But the other bit of news that developed during the Texas 500 was a little tiff between Jeff Gordon and Jimmy Johnson that was sparked by a turn 4 incident in the middle of the race. If you didn’t see it, Gordon and Johnson were battling wheel to wheel with...

Historical day for NASCAR

Saturday was a historic day for NASCAR at both the Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series races.     The festivities began in Iowa at Rusty’s little track in a cornfield in what was being called an “Inaugural” race for the Nationwide series.  Well, actually, Indy Car has raced there a couple of times already, but it was the first time that NASCAR darkened the tunnels of the 7/8ths mile circuit. The best part of the day was watching Brad Keselowski hold off a charging Kyle...

I can’t believe it, he’s driving away from me

The NASCAR Nationwide Series is in Joliet this weekend with the Cup boys at Chicagoland Speedway, and ran their 300 miler under the lights on Friday night.  The story of the race could be summed up by a radio transmission by Kyle Bush late in the race when he said, “I can’t believe it, he’s driving away from me!” And Logano did drive away from second-place Kyle Bush, posting his fastest laps of the day as the race came to a close on old tires.  It was an incredible driving...
