Seems like a long time ago we were at the Charlotte Motor Speedway for the Bank of America 500, even though it was just last Saturday night.  And what a night it was, where Clint Bowyer came home with another win, and where the NASCAR Sprint Cup (NSC) race has tightened even further for the top [...]

As expected, the Pack was Back last week at Talladega.  And we all saw some serious Alabama Slammin’ in the NASCAR Sprint Cup (NSC) Aaron’s 499 at Talladega Super Speedway (TSS).  Only a few wrecks, but those few were pretty spectacular.  But in the end, it was Brad Keselowski outpacing Kyle Busch for the win in [...]
