Hey guys, my Dad is coming up for retirement next year and we're tossing around the idea of maybe building a car and going racing. It was something we always wanted to do when I was younger but we didn't have the money back then and he didn't have the time with the constantly working out of town...

I'm sure some of the older posters will remember the days when you had to put a car on the frontstrech pits to have a shot at winning. I can't remember who it was but I recall watching a race as a kid (early 90s) where a driver either won or came very close to winning while pitting from the...

Anyone have the details on what happened with his seat during the fatal crash in 1989? I know it was improperly mounted and they changed some rules the next year but I'd like to hear any details from anyone that might have been around back then. I recently watched that Atlanta race again and I...

Not to be a downer but I'm always sceptical of NASCAR anytime they start making changes. With the addition of the ROVAL and all the talk of Watkins Glen armco barriers being dangerous along with the spectacular crashes we've seen as of late in the more narrow parts of the track does anyone else...

Wanted to take a poll to see what devices most people here usually watch on and what provider they're using. You can vote multiple times because I know a lot of folks are probably using multiple devices. For me it depends. We have a cable subscription just for certain sports. If I watch it...

I watched this race on TV as a youngin' but I can't remember all the details from that day. Anyone at the actual race know if he was really running in 1st when the pace car picked up the field? Always been curious about this one.

Can one of you old timers give me some info on this race? I know the cars were "sabotaged" in the garage area before the race but I can't find much on it beyond that.

I was at my friend's place one evening around supper time. He has two boys who were 6 and 2 years old at the time, the oldest was eating his supper in the living room with us. There was something on his plate he didn't like, I can't recall exactly what but it was probably greens or some other...

http://www.311motorspeedway.com/ I love this track, grew up going to races there every weekend. Even slept on the concrete bleachers three rows up when I was 3-5 years old because I'd always pass out before the main event. :( No wonder I'm a heavy sleeper! :D I've gone a few times in...

You know how they move around the venue for the Superbowl every year? What if NASCAR did the same thing for the Chase? By that I mean every year all 10 of those races would be held at random tracks. You couldn't make it totally random of course...but you could mix things up a bit and wait til...

Hey guys, since I was a kid I wanted to race but we never had the cash to get into go-kart racing. :( So anyway, now I have some spare cash laying around and I would like to break into racing. I'm not aiming for building a monster or trying to win a bunch of races I just want to be able to run...

In light with all that's leading up to this race; - Last nights terrible wreck - The GEN6 car begin really tested for the first time today - The catch fence and how it could be improved in the future. - Improvements to the cars themselves that could be made to make things safe for the fans...

Everyone always goes on and on about how things were better "back in the day" in my experience with fellow NASCAR fans. So since I'm new I thought it'd be fun to ask you guys what you liked and what you hated about the old days of NASCAR. I'll start (note, I ain't that old ;)); Thing I...

Any of you guys have local Lawn Mower racing in your local area? The town 5 miles from mine runs races every Friday at that towns local park. Its actually pretty fun to watch and I'll admit I'd like to give it a try sometime. :)
