Nascar always observes the Easter holiday and will be off. Next Saturday the Sprint Cup chase continues on Saturday night under the lights at Texas Motor Speedway.

One of NASCAR's oldest continuously-operating race tracks is running this weekend- Martinsville Speedway in Virginia.  The first NASCAR-sanctioned race at Martinsville was held back in 1948.  It actually started as a dirt track, but was paved in 1955.  Fifty-six different drivers have won pole qualifying positions in NASCAR's top division over the years.  For Sunday's race, Hendrick Motorsports dr

Dancia Patrick is now a full-time NASCAR driver in the Nationwide Series.  She is also racing part-time in the Sprint Cup Series this year for her team owner Tony Stewart. Prior to coming to NASCAR, Patrick was an IndyCar Series racer, but she has never raced on dirt before. Well, almost never.

Greg Biffle has started the 2012 NASCAR season very consistently.  Three great third-place finishes in a row in the first three NASCAR races of season.  That consistency has taken Biffle to the top of the Sprint Cup Series point standings.  Now he will start from the number one starting spot at Bristol Motor Speedway as he qualified for the pole in Sunday's Food City 500 race.

With the postponement of the Daytona 500 to Monday night, we have to wait a little longer to check out some great racing action and some great NASCAR themed ads. The Great American race is alot like the Super Bowl as new ads are debuted duing the race. He are just a few of my all time favorites.

According to the official Daytona 500 International Speedway web site, the race has been postponed again due to rain.

Tony "Smoke" Stewart was crowned Nascar Sprint Cup Champion last year proving to his many fans and critics alike that he is one of the elite drivers in Nascar once again.

That's right. You will be able to invite 19 of your closest friends and family to party with you at the "Hanger" room in Central Steak with a private Daytona 500 party worth $600!

Little Big Town will perform pre- and post-race concerts at the 34th annual Budweiser Shootout on Saturday, February 18 at the Daytona International Speedway as NASCAR kicks off the 2012 racing season.  The group is known for such hits as "Boondocks," "Bring It On Home" and "Little White Church."
