Hi everyone. I decided to do something a little different this week and talk about Pocono after the fact. After all, with all of the rain delays and lightning delays and no people in the stands, it was a relatively long weekend at Pocono and not just for the Cup teams. It really was a […]

Talladega More Than Just A Challenge For Cup Teams from a NASCAR Fan’s View
Talladega… There’s not much that can be said that hasn’t been said about the Super Speedway at Talladega Alabama. In fact, there’s not a whole lot that can be said that hasn’t been said about anything lately. I think just about everybody’s run out of things to say about the way NASCAR is proceeding through […]
Homestead Is Next from a NASCAR Fan’s View
It’s a busy weekend at Homestead, FL and all of the NASCAR series are showing up to do a little racing. The Cup teams take on Homestead Sunday afternoon and we can only hope that the racing will be good. Unless you’ve been totally disconnected recently, you already know that there is a lot going […]
On To Atlanta With No Practice Or Qualifying from a NASCAR Fan’s View
The NASCAR Cup teams are taking it to Atlanta this weekend and, once again, they’re doing it without practice or qualifying. As I said recently, it looks like NASCAR might be finding a way to change the way they do racing, at least in the near future. The reason I say that is because it […]
The NASCAR Marathon Continues at Bristol from a NASCAR Fan’s View
Well, it’s been a long haul but the Cup teams do get a break after this weekend until the following weekend. From this fans view, NASCAR has done a good job of getting all the races in, even with the inclement weather they’ve been fighting, and they’ve done a good job of keeping things moving. […]
My Opinion Of The Virtual Racing from a NASCAR Fan’s View
Hey, look… I know I’m an old guy and not a gamer but, I do have an opinion of the “virtual racing” being used as a replacement for the “real thing” for us NASCAR fans. Well… maybe “replacement” is a little too strong of a word. Perhaps I should say it is a substitute until […]
NASCAR Cup Teams Take It To Phoenix from a NASCAR Fan’s View
The NASCAR Cup Teams take it to Phoenix this weekend in the final race in the West coast swing. If anyone was expecting it to be “business as usual,” well… perhaps they should rethink. There are a lot of things different since the last time the Cup Teams visited Phoenix and it could have a […]
NASCAR Cup Teams Take It To Fontana from a NASCAR Fan’s View
The NASCAR Cup Series teams take on the mile-and-a-half Auto Club Speedway oval at Fontana this weekend. It is the second of three races in the swing out west for them and it is the second real test of the newly designed Chevy Camaros. Oh sure, they were tested last weekend at Las Vegas but […]
Vegas Is Next For NASCAR Cup 2020 from a NASCAR Fan’s View
The NASCAR Cup teams take it to the track at Vegas this weekend. Considering the wreck-fest we saw at Daytona last weekend, the Vegas track may seem a little tame. Oh, I’m not saying there won’t be any action. I’m just saying there won’t be as many wrecked racecars as there were when Speed Weeks […]
The 2020 Daytona 500 from a NASCAR Fan’s View
Let’s see now… There’s a lot of things different for this 2020 NASCAR Cup season opener at Daytona. More horsepower, faster closing rates and a repeat learning curve for blocking. In the course of events at Daytona this last week, some learned that blocking can be a risk not to be taken – at least […]
