Brad Keselowski has said that when he was growing up he didn’t just want to be a race car driver – he wanted to be a great race car driver. Now he is officially a NASCAR champion race car driver. NASCAR concluded its 2012 season Friday night with the Sprint Cup Series awards banquet [...]

Talladega Time

John Stanley — Sat, 06 Oct 2012 18:56:13 +0000

This weekend's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway presents both risk and opportunity. The risk relates to being caught up in the "big one" crash which could possibly eliminate some of the top drivers from being able to contend for the championship title. The opportunity might be for some of the drivers who find themselves further back in the point standings going into the race being able to make up some significant ground and get back into title contention if any of the points leaders suffer poor finishes. In qualifying for Sunday's race, Kasey Kahne set fast time to start on the pole with a speed of 191.455 mph and points leader Brad Keselowski qualified in the 22nd position.

Nascar Will Have A New Champion – I Hope It Is Tony Stewart

Jake Thomas — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 18:41:20 +0000

The Nascar Sprint Cup Series will crown a new champion this weekend. Carl Edwards has a slim 3 point lead going into the final race at Homestead. My favorite driver (since Mayfield was banned) Tony Stewart is sitting in second and I am really hoping he can beat Carl Edwards and win the championship. Historic [...]

WGNA Has NASCAR Tickets This Winning Weekend

Jake Thomas — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 17:21:26 +0000

I love NASCAR even though they banned my favorite driver Jeremy Mayfield for life. Jerks! I am not a front runner fan for Dale Jr. I am not a big Gordon fan, and don’t even get me started on Jimmy Johnson. Tony Stewart is the guy I find myself cheering for now. No matter who [...]
