Turn Back The Clock: 2001 NASCAR Season, Dark Times
April 14, 2020 by Frank Velat

NASCAR history can be measured in several ways, whether it be decades, the presence of certain drivers or various championship point formats. For myself and many others in the NASCAR industry, there is the way things were before 2001 and the way things were after it. It's debatable, but I'd argue that no full season …

For a sport based on high speed and non-stop action, NASCAR racing can be incredibly frustrating sometimes. It is positively soul-sapping to watch two lines of race cars sitting tucked away under their covers in a heavy downpour, especially when it occurs just before the long-delayed start of our sport's equivalent to the Super Bowl. …

It was quite a weekend in NASCAR, a throwback in more ways than one. A beat and bang finish in the Camping World Truck Series kicked off the proceedings, followed by both paint schemes and attire suitable for Sunday's Sprint Cup main event. Darlington delivered, paired with comments during and after the race that were old school and …

Did You Notice? … A Toyota has never won the Daytona 500 in eight tries? In fact, the Camry make has scored just one trophy at the 2.5-mile superspeedway, taking the July 2008 race with Kyle Busch. The manufacturer is known more here for what they've done wrong (see: Michael Waltrip, jet fuel, a long …

The Big 6: Questions Answered After the 2014 Sprint Unlimited at Daytona
June 18, 2020 February 17, 2014 by Amy Henderson
They say it takes a combination of luck and skill to be successful in racing, and nobody took that to heart in the Unlimited more than Kyle Busch. After getting together with Brad Keselowski in the final segment, Busch looked to be toast—but somehow managed to hang on to his racecar and contend for the win. He had an almost identical wild ride in the 2012 version of the Unlimited and won that one. He didn't quite get there this time, finishing third to teammate Denny Hamlin, but Busch again treated fans to his amazing car control. The luck factor also worked in Busch's favor as the rest of the field avoided his spinning Toyota. But Busch was both lucky and good in this one.

Did You Notice? The Difference a NASCAR Decade Makes? & Feed the Rich
December 31, 2020 April 7, 2010 by Tom Bowles
Did You Notice? What a difference a decade makes? In this slow off week, I figured we'd do something a little different to show how much NASCAR has changed in the past ten years. So I figured, with so much worry over Jimmie Johnson's seemingly limitless success as of late, why not take a look …

10. (2008) Brian France could disappear off the face of the earth tomorrow and no one would notice. Well OK, we would notice because someone with some competence would be running the show.

Happy Hour: Is There a Hex on UPS Cars?
December 10, 2020 September 24, 2009 by Frontstretch Staff
Occasionally, you hear comical stories of superstition in motorsports. Joe Weatherly, whose untimely death in a crash is why stock cars have window nets today, suffered from triskaidekaphobia and once asked NASCAR to call the 13th Southern 500 the "12th Renewal of the Southern 500." He also once asked to rename his 13th starting position …

Voices from the Heartland: NASCAR Deems That AJ Allmendinger is 'Expendable'
A lot has been said this past week about the timing of the last caution flag that flew on the closing lap of last Sunday's race. The controversy started as AJ Allmendinger's No. 44 spun on the frontstretch during the white-flag lap. Meanwhile, Mark Martin and Juan Pablo Montoya continued to battle for the lead …
