I guess some people just never learn. Kurt Busch lost his high-profile ride in the No. 22 Dodge at Penske Racing at the end of last season, mostly due to his behavioral problems that ranged from berating his crew via in-race radio communication to an instance late last season in which he didn't handle himself well during an interview with an ESPN reporter.

I realize we're now several days removed from Sunday's Aaron's 499 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway, but sometimes my mind wanders and contemplates some of the most off-the wall things. For whatever reason, I was thinking about Kurt Busch and the No. 51 Phoenix Racing team's rendition of Ricky Bobby from the movie, "Talladega Nights."

When the checkered flag waved on the Capital City 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Richmond (Va.)

When a race track has been around for awhile, repavings are inevitable. Of course, the frequency of repaves vary depending on the climate in the area surrounding said race track and other factors. But fact of the matter is, sometimes race tracks need to be repaved.

Sure, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is a little more than a week removed from its first visit of the year to Bristol Motor Speedway, but one question still seems to be a major topic of discussion within the NASCAR community.

In recent years past, victory lanes in NASCAR Nationwide Series competition have been filled with Sprint Cup Series regulars.

But could this new face on the Sprint Cup Series scene have a thing or two to teach seasoned series veterans? It's possible.

Kyle Busch has, undoubtedly, replaced Tony Stewart as the bad boy of NASCAR.

In fact, the redheaded Okie was actually disappointed in his third-place finish at Chase Field and feels he's close to landing...

The 2010 NASCAR season saw a lot of changes, from NASCAR’s “boys have

season with the double-file restart and wave around rules and the beefed
up attempt to end races under green by making up to three
green-white-checker attempts. Changes will continue in 2011 and not just
when it comes different faces in different...

Our thoughts go out to Jimmy Albertson - just after announcing his return to Supercross with new sponsors, he dislocated his knee during a timed practice at Saturday's qualifying round in Anaheim. He's heading back to Missouri for surgery and rehab in hopes of joining the Outdoor Nationals in May.
My plan is to light up the racing series that I participate in. That includes fully promoting my sponsors. I will be spending time with the marketing partners in the hospitality tents before each race. Their time at the track is to be most beneficial either for their own passion for being up close to racing or to be a place to entertain their professional business relationships. At the end of the...

Should Kevin Harvick receive some kind of recognition, in the form of
perhaps a special trophy, for being the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series
regular season champion? Of course, he still has a shot at the big
Sprint Cup trophy awarded at season’s end, but should he fall short of
nabbing that one, should he receive some sort of consolation prize for
being a regular season champion of sorts?

Let me go out on a limb with this statement – the 2010 version of the NASCAR Sprint Cup “playoff” is any one of the 12 competitor’s to win!
More so than in years past, there really isn’t a clear cut favorite in 2010. Momentum hasn’t attached itself to any single team this season.
Points leader Denny Hamlin has faded in previous Chases. Kevin Harvick...

the sport's ownership realm. He won his first two championships in his

When you think of Kevin Schwantz, you tend to think of Suzuki. After all, he honed his skills early on GSX-Rs in AMA racing and his 1993 500cc World Championship and all of his 25 GP wins came on Suzukis.
