Well, aside from talking about the wins this past weekend by Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Joey Logano – which can be found at virtually any racing website across the country, Do You NASCAR has had quite a bit of other topics to discuss, as always. For those of you that may have missed some of it, here’s a quick recap:
Monday – For Austin Dillon, There’s No Place Like 1st Place – As promised earlier in the season, DYN continues to follow the career of Austin Dillon and his goal to one day driver the no. 3 car in the Sprint Cup Series for his grandfather, Richard Childress. Austin currently leads the points standings in the Camping World East Series.
Tuesday – Brian France Speaks Out on NASCAR Lawsuit – NASCAR CEO, Brian France, responds to the recent allegations that have shaken up the front offices of NASCAR. He also acknowledges the rumors that two NASCAR officials have been placed on administrative leave.
Wednesday – Road Course Ringers Flood Sonoma – DYN examines all of the road course “ringers” that will attempt to qualify for this weekend’s race at Infineon Raceway, including Chip Ganassi’s decision to replace Reed Sorenson with Scott Pruett, and DEI’s decision to replace Regan Smith with Ron Fellows.
Thursday – NASCAR Rivals: Kenseth, Vickers vs. NASCAR Rulebook – In the weekly segment of NASCAR Rivals, DYN points out the dissatisfaction from top-five Michigan finishers, Matt Kenseth and Brian Vickers, for incidents that occurred on the track at Michigan International Speedway.
Friday – Is Joey Logano Ready for a Jump to the Cup? – The “Loose in Turn 3″ panel analyzes the recent comments made by Joe Gibbs Racing that youngster Joey Logano could see some seat time in a Cup car as early as the end of ‘08. And, of course, I’ve also got to give a shout out to the article posted over at the RaceKitten, where she asks Is it the Car, or the Driver?
Additionally, I have added the Church of the Great Oval and Diary of a Track Bunny to my Blogroll. As you will notice, I have also highlighted all of the NBFT sites in my blogroll (this has actually been done for awhile). I’m not sure if this is something you all might consider doing as well.
There’s a lot more posted over at www.doyounascar.com, but these are just simply the highlights of each day’s work. Go check ‘em out as we await the action for this Sunday’s Cup race, and be sure to keep checking back throughout the weekend as I will bring you the highlights and results for each race!
