Product placement and sponsorship can be a precarious situation. Companies who spend millions of dollars on a branding campaign can wind up coming across as too pushy or stiff to relate to consumers.

Today is Armed Forces Day. It is a day to pay tribute to the men and women who serve in the United States armed forces. NASCAR star Kurt Busch will observe this special day by paying tribute with a special paint scheme for tonight's Sprint All-Star race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

I was sad to see the news come across on this story. Dick Trickle was a Nascar veteran and literally was on the track until he was almost 60.

Maybe you knew that NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Jeff Gordon had a place to hang his helmet in New York. In 2007, Gordon bought a condo in Manhattan but now it's up for sale.

I have to say my favorite track to watch a Nascar race from is Bristol, but Darlington is a close second.

After two days of testing his NASCAR Sprint Cup Series car at Indianapolis Motor Speedway this past week, Kurt Busch will be testing again at the Brickyard this coming week - but this time in an IZOD IndyCar Series car.

Sorry, if you can't tell I'm a Tony Stewart fan.

Tim McGraw would love 'two lanes of freedom' to push the pedal to the metal and live out his NASCAR dreams. He recently admitted that not only does he love watching the stock car racing event, he would also like to do a movie about it, so he can experience flying around the track.

Martin Truex Jr. is tired of finishing in second place in NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series races. After last week's effort at Texas once again came up short, Truex is looking forward to Sunday's race at Kansas Speedway.

Nascar Sprint Cup Series drivers won't be able to say "We're Not In Kansas Anymore".

There was quite a bit of controversy over a story I posted on Friday in which a Senator from Connecticut asked Fox not to air a Nascar race which was sponsored by the NRA.

Kyle Busch broke the track record in qualifying for Saturday night's race at the Texas Motor Speedway.  He also knocked his big brother Kurt off of the pole starting position.
