Martin Truex Jr. Breaks Winless Streak at the Monster Mile

by Chuck AbramsMay 2, 2023May 4, 2023

Last week I noted that Martin Truex, Jr. had three wins at Dover but hasn’t been all that great there as of late. He certainly turned that around leading 68 laps and holding off Ross Chastain after a late race restart. After being rained out on Sunday, the Cup teams returned on Monday to a green track that rubbered up nicely as the race progressed. This race was not a case of tires not dropping off as The Monster Mile started eating tires.

Christopher Bell Rings In A Win On Bristol Dirt

by Chuck AbramsApril 10, 2023April 13, 2023

I have never been a real fan of the Bristol dirt race but I have to say this was the best Cup race I have seen on the dirt. The crowd was still not “old Bristol” worthy but it was a decent show considering it was a bit chilly.

The race was not without incident and one of the cool things about the dirt is that cars that did a 360 could get themselves straightened up without a caution flag needing to be thrown.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Wins The Biggest Race Of His Career

by Chuck AbramsFebruary 20, 2023February 23, 2023

Welcome back race fans! Long time to be away from racing. As many of you know, the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona is the kickoff to the season for me but I have to admit my attention was elsewhere a lot of this young season. After watching qualifying for the 500, I pretty much missed the Duels for the first time in forever.

There have been a fair amount of changes this year leaving me to question just how good the racing was going to be.
