A.J. Allmendinger Surprises With Sixth In Qualifying

A.J. Allmendinger slumped while on the bubble for the NASCAR playoffs. Afterwards, he did not fare much better. Consecutive 30th-place results at Kansas and Bristol for the Kaulig Racing driver highlight a run where Allmendinger finished 13th or worse in nine of his previous 11 races. The No, 16 Chevy qualified sixth on Saturday at […]

Kyle Larson Starts 11th On Sunday Afternoon

Kyle Larson starts the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 400 from the 11th position on Sunday afternoon. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing car narrowly missed out on the final round of qualifying. Larson's practice intervals led the way from 10,15, and 20 laps out. The No. 5 car is fast and especially at Texas. Larson won in 2021 […]

Kyle Busch Looks To Rebound On Sunday

Kyle Busch did not enjoy Texas in 2022. Accidents ended both of his appearances on the track (finished 36th and 21st). Before last year's poor qualifying effort of 18th, Busch had led at Texas the previous two Fall races (a total of 110 laps). That culminated in a win for the Richard Childress Racing driver […]

Martin Truex Jr. Hoping For Better Fortunes In Texas

Martin Truex Jr. has not enjoyed Texas Motor Speedway much the past few races. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has an average finish of 12.5 on intermediate tracks. However, that number drops to 21.8 since 2020 when it comes to the Texas 1.5-mile course. Truex Jr. has one top-five result (a second in 2020). He […]

Denny Hamlin Snatches Victory At Bristol

Denny Hamlin is not the most popular driver in NASCAR but he makes races interesting. Hamlin and his Joe Gibbs Racing car ended up winning the Bass Pro Shops Night Race on Saturday night. Hamlin led 142 laps after starting in second, but led the one that mattered at the end. He held off Kyle […]

Chris Buescher Bounces Back With Fourth-Place Finish At Bristol

Chris Buescher is on a nice run right now. The RFK Racing driver started 20th on Saturday night like last year at Bristol. Now, he did not get the win this time around. However, the No. 17 car managed to finish in fourth. That placed him safely into the Round of 12 where he enjoys […]

Bubba Wallace Barely Makes Second Round In NASCAR Chase

Bubba Wallace started ninth on Saturday night for the Bass Pro Shops Night Race. It was touch and go but the 23XI Racing driver managed to finish 14th. That was good enough to advance to the Round of 12 by a mere four points. The No. 23 car needed a top-15 finish to secure a […]

Martin Truex Jr. Avoids Elimination Saturday Night

Martin Truex Jr. came into the race at Bristol 13th in the playoff standings. Finishing 19th probably should not have been enough, but the Joe Gibbs Racing driver lucked out when Kevin Harvick ran into worse problems. Harvick finished five laps down in 29th. Combine that with a 34th from Joey Logano and Truex Jr. […]

J.J. Yeley Starts 35th On Saturday Night At Bristol

J.J. Yeley would have started from dead last if not for Kyle Larson's lapse on Friday in qualifying. Yeley was 0.684 seconds off the pole-setting time set by Christopher Bell. Yeley and his No. 51 Ford from Rick Ware Racing has been below NASCAR pace all season. He does manage to keep the car running […]

Ty Dillon Starts Near The Rear For Bristol

Ty Dillon qualified 33rd for the Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol on Saturday night. The Spire Motorsports Chevy kept bleeding tenths of a second on the short 650-foot straightways. Between that and some late braking, Dillon was 0.429 seconds behind Christopher Bell's pole time. That does not sound like a lot but consider […]

Austin Dillon In The Middle Again At Bristol

Austin Dillon likes to start from the middle of the pack at Bristol. Seven straight years he qualified between 15th and 21st. Even two years ago, the Richard Childress Racing Chevy began 18th. Last year was arguably an anomaly as he began 28th. Once the race starts, everything changes. The No. 3 car was eighth […]

Ryan Newman Qualifies 27th For Bristol Race On Saturday

Ryan Newman got the call for Rick Ware Racing and delivered a 27th place effort in qualifying on Friday. The No. 51 Ford driver had two top five results at Bristol what feels like moons ago (a second in 2004). Needless to say, the Rick Ware car has had slower track speed. Even in practice, […]

Ryan Preece Could Be One To Watch At Bristol

Ryan Preece is far from the fastest car at Bristol. However, the Stewart-Haas Racing driver could be in better form this week. That ugly crash three weeks ago nearly derailed more than that race. Preece's toughness can never be questioned. At Bristol, he has been pretty consistent. The No. 41 Ford starts 17th on Saturday […]

Harrison Burton Trying To Show Something Saturday Night

Harrison Burton has endured one pretty ugly season in NASCAR. Friday's qualifying did not help as the Wood Brothers Racing driver ended up 32nd. If there is a bright side, the No. 21 Ford began 27th last year and wound up 16th. Those hoping for a little more place differential magic could get a little […]

A.J. Allmendinger Has Some Work To Do Saturday

A.J. Allmendinger starts the Bristol race from the 22nd position on Saturday night. Last year, the Kaulig Racing driver began 13th and ended up seventh. The No. 16 car was close to and around the top five cars most of the night. That was especially true during the second half of the race. With a […]

Kyle Larson Starts From The Back On Saturday Night

Kyle Larson will start from the back on Saturday night. The No .5 car from Hendrick Motorsports was the fastest in practice. When it came to qualifying, Larson got loose and that hiccup was enough to end up last. It is safe to say, Larson will move up the field with much haste if the […]

Denny Hamlin Trying To Improve At Bristol

For all the talk of quicker practices, lap times, and qualifying, Denny Hamlin wants to improve on his ninth-place results at Bristol. Consecutive top tens would make most any other driver happy but not the Joe Gibbs Racing driver. However, Hamlin has some team and owner politics on the horizon. Martin Truex Jr. is 13th […]

William Byron Starts Third At Bristol On Saturday

William Byron looked even better than the normally fast Kyle Larson in qualifying on Friday. As a result, the No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver will start third on Saturday from Bristol. Byron has consecutive third-place results on the short track but had not qualified this well since 2018 (2nd). Being closer to the front […]

Tyler Reddick In Unique Position For Bristol

Tyler Reddick and his 23XI Racing car have already advanced to the Round of 12. That puts him in an interesting position for Bristol on Saturday. Reddick could play the team card and try to help Bubba Wallace into the next round. By his own right, the No. 45 car qualified 12th for the Bass […]

Chris Buescher Could Win Again At Bristol

Chris Buescher may be starting down in 20th but it would not be wise to count him out on Saturday night. The RFK Racing driver won at Bristol last year as he carried some phenomenal final segment speed (tops over the final 125 laps). His No. 17 Ford seemed to get better and better as […]

Brad Keselowski Always Seems Fast At Bristol

Brad Keselowski managed to qualify sixth at Bristol where he always seems to be fast and lead some laps. The RFK Racing driver and part-owner appears to be in safe enough position to advance to the Round of 12. That being said, Keselowski has a solid average finish of 13.5 at Bristol and led 109 […]

Martin Truex Jr. Needs Strong Result At Bristol

Martin Truex Jr. needs a strong result at Bristol on Saturday night and probably some help. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver started with 36 bonus points in the NASCAR playoffs. He is now seven points below the cutline entering the Bass Pro Shops Night Race. On the bright side, Truex Jr. qualified fifth. Race segment […]

Beau Hossler Seeking To Improve On Weekends This Season

Beau Hossler closed the 2022-23 season well but the American golfer missed some opportunities because of poor weekend showings. Hossler had a stretch where he shot 71 or worse in six of eight tournaments. That does not sound so bad, but consider the Mexico Open where his final round 66 vaulted him into the top […]

Mark Hubbard Wants To Finish Well At Silverado North

Mark Hubbard was on the edge of contention last year at the Fortinet Championship. His final round 73 knocked him out of the top 20. Two weeks later, the American golfer had a chance to win Sanderson Farms Championship but a 74 derailed his hopes for a first PGA win. Hubbard had a bit of […]

Stephan Jagger Looks To Pick Up Where He Left Off

Stephan Jagger finished off last season with some solid results. The German golfer netted five straight top-30 finishes including a tied for ninth at Rocket Mortgage Classic. Even at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, Jagger fired all four rounds under 70. With scores expected to be in the -15 to -20 range to win, he […]

Ryan Moore Trying To Make Cut At Fortinet Championship

Ryan Moore took some time away to not think about golf. After missing the cut in four of the final five tournaments of last season, the American golfer is ready to begin anew. The first thing he has to do is erase the bad memory of last year's opening round 77. That caused Moore to […]

Chez Reavie Tries To Start Better Than Last Season

Chez Reavie wants to get off to a better start for the 2023-24 PGA season. Last year, he missed three straight cuts and nine of his first 14 tournaments (plus one W/D). Once the Spring started, Reavie did improve but it was a rough season. On the bright side, the American golfer did finish third […]

Austin Cindric Continues Rough Stretch In Kansas

Austin Cindric has been kind of like a cinder block when it comes to racing at Kansas. He carries a negative place differential in three of his past four appearances. The Team Penske car struggled in 2023 and finished 31st at the Kansas Speedway in May. The No. 2 Ford has never had a top […]
