Exciting news from Nascar

Written by admin. Posted in NASCAR News

The one who won
Matt KensethIt was good luck for Kenseth when his third win came on the occasion of his 41st birthday. You must have seen all the exciting news breaking out on blogs and sites if not on the television. The main reason was the superb condition of Math Kenseth’ car. It has performed well for the third time in three consecutive races this season. The number twenty team was especially happy to see it pay off in the final round. Kenseth and his Dollar General Toyota car piloted to a win on Sunday at the Kobalt Tools 400 race on the Las Vegas Motor Speedway event. The race was on his birthday and he was charged to hold off Kasey Kahne in the final 30 laps. It was certainly a duel to match and watch. The victory lap came when the late pit stop came on and Kenseth merely refueled. After that he was out on the pit road and onto his winning streak when other cars were busy getting two car tires replaced.
Stats of Kenseth’s victory
If you have been following the statistics of the races in which Kenseth has participated you will notice:
This win was the third win of Kenseth at Las Vegas
It was a first since 2004
He became the third driver in the series to win on his birthday
When Kenseth was asked the reasons for his win he stated that, though he does not believe in setting goals, his goal was to win this time and he wanted to win early in the game. He knew that there was no pressure except the pressure that he applied to himself. He also knew that his Coach expected him to win the races and he did not want to disappoint anyone.
Other stats of the game
Besides Kenseth, the other winners and other statistics of the game are:
The top five drivers were Kahne, Brad Keselowski, Busch, Carl Edwards – in that order
Jimmie Johnson finished in the sixth position and he left Las Vegas as the leader of the series
He ended with five points ahead of Keselowski and earned ten points ahead of Earnhardt who finished in the third place
The state of those who did not win
Those who do not achieve their desired objective turn up frustrated. Keselowski dropped to the 13th place due to a mishap that occurred on the pit road. He and his crew had to change four tires. Keselowski finished fourth in Daytona and Phoenix events and he was not happy with his performance at this race. He felt that they have to get better at execution in order to better their luck at winning. Kahne and Johnson were close contestants and Busch ended up fourth while on Saturday he had come in second place. Nascar car rallies are a great thrill for car racing fans. Car rally weekends are eagerly awaited for by fans all over Las Vegas and from other parts of the country.

NASCAR’s New Car Models For 2013 Remind Of The Glorious Days Of The Past

NASCAR Seeks To Restore Individuality In Cars Once Again

Understandably, numerous fans across the world were extremely upset with this change. It somehow reduced the charm of the game to a great extent since a Ford lover could hardly distinguish their favorite car from a Toyota. Finally, in an attempt to rectify this error, NASCAR has tried to bring back the glorious days of the past and restore the individuality that these cars sported so proudly. 

Finally Something To Look Forward To

What’s more is that these cars are now being made to resemble what they stand for. For example, the Talladega track saw the introduction of 3 new vehicles into its family – the Chevrolet SS, the Ford Fusion and the Toyota Camry. Moreover, manufacturers and officials are now trying to ensure that when a new car now comes along, it should try to be as generic as possible. Thus, fans can now go back to the old days of hooting for their favorite cars instead of just hooting for their favorite driver or manufacturer. Another advantage that these cars could bring to the fold is that are not as easy to handle for the drivers. This brings the focus back on driver skills which was missing in the past few years. Lastly, these new cars might also help in restoring the old era creativity which teams used to gain an edge over each other and in turn restore the true charm and spirit of NASCAR.

NASCAR’s New Car Models For 2013 Remind Of The Glorious Days Of The Past

Written by admin. Posted in NASCAR News

The Future Of NASCAR Seems A Lot Like Its Past – And That’s Not Necessarily A Bad Thing

The past Wednesday gave us a glimpse at the future of NASCAR racing. The biggest plus was that it seemed right out of our textbooks reminding us of the glorious days of our past. The biggest disadvantage of the modern day NASCAR car models was that they were completely stripped out of their older era individuality and one could hardly distinguish in between the Ford or the Chevrolet or the Toyota. This was due to a major shift in trend which concentrated on bringing out cars that looked a lot like the ones standing in the showrooms to boost sales.

The Glorious Days Of The Past

However, this was not always the case. A few decades ago, every manufacturer had their unique cars which stood out in their individuality from one another. Most of these cars were built to get the little advantages a manufacturer could. One saw an amazing array of spoiler sizes or the nose changes or constant changes in technology from one track to the other. As a result, a car which ran beautifully in Michigan might not be as good at Daytona. This uncertainty was one of the most appealing aspects of NASCAR. However, following the death of Dale Earnhardt in 2001, NASCAR underwent tremendous changes to improve driver safety. As a result, the cars were completely redesigned to improve their safety features which enhanced driver safety to such a tremendous level that drivers could walk away from major accidents unscathed. However, in doing so, the NASCAR cars were stripped out of their individuality. Thus, one of the main purposes of the manufacturers which was to promote their specific brands was completely defeated.

Limiting Part-Time Racers at the NASCAR Nationwide Series

Written by admin. Posted in NASCAR News

With a dozen and more drivers that participated at the NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) last weekend most aiming for the trophy, the question whether or not NASCAR should limit part-time racers is looming ahead. There’s no denying that the crowd went really wild at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, the race was undeniably packed with adrenaline and the venue was full of excitement and shouts with many drivers showing off for their first, and probably, only NNS race. 

Elliot Sadler, a serious contender for the championship title, thinks that the race creates anxiety for the participants trying to bag the title. In an interview, he said that when a driver is racing against fellow drivers that are meaning to win the trophy, the competition gets very difficult – a far cry when you’re racing against those of your similar interest. Because while a contestant for the championship title can get through the game unharmed, the title can easily be stolen by a part-time racer that may not probably race again, leaving them empty handed in the end.

This reality fuels the argument between the pro part-time NNS racers and those that are against it. Deana Engel, a pro part-timer, said in her write-up that NASCAR is a sport for every American man and restricting part-timers will ruin the concept. She said that Villeneuve, Carpentier, and Tagliani are good hometown racers and seeing them participate in the race is one good thing. Engle also thinks that since NASCAR has to sell tickets to earn its keeps, accepting drivers like Villeneuve is a smart move because lots of his supporters will definitely buy to see his game. Engel simply believes in a fair competition and drivers should compete with the best men in the race to prove that they too, have the right to win the title regardless if they’re competing for the first time or for the nth time.

On the other hand, Bill Kimm also expresses his opinion about the issue and he says no to part-timers. According to Bill, NASCAR should really take a more thorough look at its rules with regards to accepting part-time racers in NNS. Yes, drivers should have equal chance of joining this very prestigious race but many of the participants are only joining for their ego’s sake. It doesn’t matter if serious contenders like Stenhouse Jr., Austin Dillon, and Elliot Sadler are there for the championship; most part-timers only want to win. Bill also implies that if a contender wants a real career in NNS, the opportunity is all his. But if all he wants is to show off and outshine other drivers in one race then the part-time ideals is ridiculous.

Dodge Waves Goodbye at the 2013 Sprint Cup

Written by admin. Posted in NASCAR News

Even Carl Edwards under the Ford Company shared his feelings regarding the news and said that it’s only natural for the company or person to decide what’s better for their welfare. So, if Dodge think that withdrawing from the Sprint Cup is the best move then they’re free to do as they please but he still believes that someday the company will come back to the race since everyone knows that NASCAR is one of the best ways to market their products. Besides, Dodge already made that on-off decision before so Edwards is still looking at the possibility of the same to happen again.

When asked for his feelings about the impending withdrawal of Dodge, Jeff Gordon, a Chevy driver, said that although he haven’t had experience in driving Dodge he was not surprise with the announcement. He though that the small number of team cars from the company is a telltale sign that the withdrawal is actually coming. He further added that he also feels sad about the fact that a well-known company like Dodge will be missing.
