    Which NASCAR track has never had a win on a last lap pass?

    Define "pass". What about the 1987 Goody's 500? Or doesn't the 3rd place car passing the first two who are wrecking count?

    Nascar Cup numbers moved

    BTW, is the clock running this forum correct? Is it set to the correct time zone? I made reply #14 above on Monday, February 28 at around 4:30 pm EST. According to the date on the post, I made it "Yesterday at 9:33 PM." Meaning I supposedly wrote it on Sunday, February 27 late at night. This...

    Nascar Cup numbers moved

    If you look at the paint schemes so far, it is obvious why they moved the numbers. Still need a hint? Name a movie starring Ice Cube, Mike Epps and Eva Mendes.

    NBC Sports Gold / Trackpass — Worth It?

    OK, so it's inexpensive — only $3.00 per month. Was just curious if it is all it is cracked up to be. They're carrying the Whelen Modified Tour, ARCA, Pinty's Series (Canada) and selected short track events. The Mods from Martinsville are on tonight.

    One "Advantage" of the Shutdown? Setting a New Cannonball Record.

    New York to Los Angeles, in 26 hours and 38 minutes. https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a32092440/26-hour-38-minute-cannonball-record-coronavirus/ NOTE:  No comment on whether this was right or wrong given the current state. Just indicating what happened. And it was in a way a real race...

    Attn Webmaster: Something Broke On This Site Recently

    I used to come here simply by typing "raceny.com".  Then about two weeks ago, that stopped working. 1) If I type "raceny.com", it tries to go to "https://raceny.com/smf" and gives this 404 error: "The requested URL was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was...

    NASCAR Truck series title sponsor inserts company into political fray

    Another example of the problems caused by the Facebook and Twitter mentality.  Just because there is such a thing as free speech doesn't mean you have to open your mouth and voice your personal opinion on anything and everything that pops into your head.  With the country seemingly split 50/50...

    Dr. Jerry Punch Out at ESPN

    "Doc" was part of the purge at ESPN today, where around 100 on-air and writing talents were let go / downsized / made redundant / insert your own corporate euphemism for being fired (I know how that feels). Here's the confirmed list so far.  Since I don't follow any of the ball and stick...

    Is There a Replacement or Alternative to Jayski?

    I've been reading Jayski since soon after he created his site.  It was always the second site I looked at every morning (the first is Drudge).  It was great, quick and dirty.  A brief summary of the latest news, and I had the option of clicking on any particular item if I wanted to read more...

    Tony Stewart Threatened To Run Over Driver 2 Years Ago Following Wreck-CBS News

    That headline appeared at the top of Drudge this morning, and linked to the following article that appeared on the CBS Tampa Bay web site: http://tampa.cbslocal.com/2014/08/11/tony-stewart-threatened-to-run-over-driver-2-years-ago-following-wreck/ And then that linked to the story and video...

    Is It Just Me, Or Is the Fox Sports 1 Leaderboard a Big Failure?

    I know that every network covering racing wants their own identity on how to show current running positions, current lap number and green/yellow track conditions.  And I also know there are only so many ways to present that information on the TV screen. But this latest arrangement used by the...

    Jean-Claude Van Damme Does Splits Between Trucks Going Backwards!

    Not exactly racing, but impressive none the less.  Can you drive your hauler backwards in a perfect straight line? The action movie star known as "The Muscles from Brussels" has still got it. In an ad for Volvo trucks he does the splits while the two tractor trailers are going backwards...

    NASCAR Moving Daytona 500 To China!

    That's right - because if you read it on the Internet, it just has to be true! On one forum (supposedly geared to politics, world events and conspiracies), people are complaining about - and believing - the movement of yet another American institution to China due to the following story...

    Is This a Former Racetrack (Canandaigua)?

    Check out address 3350 State Route 21 (also called Chapin Road) in Canandaigua, NY, northeast of Andrews Road and southwest of Schutt Road. I was looking at the Google satellite maps of the area and came across this.  It seems a bit large for a horse track, and I don't see any farms in the...

    Five Mile Point Flea Market?

    A couple of questions about Saturday morning's event: 1)  Can spots be purchased upon entering or do you have to be registered in advance? 2)  Is it strictly racing parts and accessories, or are things of interest to the fans there too? 3)  Based on past 5MP flea markets, how big of a crowd...

    Five Mile Point Frequencies?

    Is the only frequency used by the track 454.000?  Or is that one only the one-way communication with the drivers and are there other ones used by the track officials and staff? I won't be at the track - just experimenting with the reach of the signals.

    Frequencies for Shangri-La 2?

    I've checked around, including the Shangri-La 2 web site.  The only reference I've seen to track frequencies was not found in their rule books, but in their forum section and a post Amy made back on 7/21/09.  It listed these two frequencies: 464.2875 - track 454.000 - one-way to drivers Are...
