Random NASCAR Stuff to talk about.....

Is the Daytona track any good? The event there is usually during spring break but I've never checked it out.

One of the sickest tracks of the year every year. And your crazy weather gives good odds of a mud race. Which is kind of rare and always entertaining.

And you can spectate from the trioval pavement if you want. I'd recommend watching from higher up in the stands though.

Possible penalties for #5 car this week due to improperly-secured ballast during quals.

Good day for the Bowyer's

MWR announces extensions with Bowyer, Pattie and 5-Hour Energy: Michael Waltrip Racing announced today it has signed multiyear contract extensions with sponsor 5-hour ENERGY, driver Clint Bowyer and crew chief Brian Pattie to race its #15 Toyota Camry in the NASCAR Sprint Cup series starting in 2015. The trio joined MWR in 2012 and has scored three wins and earned two Chase berths including a runner-up finish in 2012. "This is big news for all of us," said Bowyer, an eight-time winner in NASCAR Sprint Cup competition. "It creates great stability and excitement about what the next few years can bring. MWR is my racing home and continuing this relationship with 5-hour ENERGY was a high priority. It's time to put the paperwork in a drawer and focus on winning." "Since the first day 5-hour ENERGY, Clint and Brian showed up at MWR, we have been a contender for wins and championships. I am so thankful that we get to continue and add to what we have built," said co-owner Michael Waltrip. "I am most happy for the employees of MWR who are the foundation of everything we do." The familiar red, black and yellow brand colors of 5-hour ENERGY will adorn the #15 in 24 NASCAR Sprint Cup events each year starting in 2015. Additional primary partners on the #15 include PEAK and AAA Mid-Atlantic. "We have clearly aligned ourselves with one of the most competitive and energetic drivers in racing and we felt it was really important for us to continue the equity we have built over the past three years," said Scott Henderson, president of 5-hour ENERGY. "We love Clint, the people at MWR and the sport of NASCAR. The extension decision was also based on our racing program's success with our sales team and all of our participating retailers." Bowyer celebrates his 300th start Sunday at Kansas Speedway

This may have been posted already, pretty damn cool.

  • Bowyer's mother to wave green flag: #15-Clint Bowyer has one more reason to follow his mother's instructions: She'll wave the green flag at Kansas Speedway. It's a NASCAR-style Mother's Day celebration when Jana Bowyer waves the flag to start Saturday night's Sprint Cup race. Clint Bowyer grew up in Emporia, Kansas, and was honored to have his mom picked to help start the 400-mile race. "We are a pretty close family so we've been ragging on her a little bit," Bowyer said. "`Don't drop the flag mom, whatever you do, don't drop the flag.' It's pretty cool. I hope there's not a caution."(Associated Press)(5-9-2014)
