A former radio and television broadcaster, newspaper columnist, Little League baseball coach, Ron Thornton has been following NASCAR on this site since 2004. While his focus may have changed over recent years, he continues to make periodic appearances only when he has something to say. That makes him a rather unique journalist.

The Final Word – Kansas, where good just was not good enough

Imagine a Chase with only ten drivers, and one of them not being Brad Keselowski. Now imagine how stupid NASCAR would have looked, instead of being the geniuses they are.

The Final Word – Dover is over, but can some shake off their troubles in time for Kansas?

The Final Word – Chicago’s Chitty – Chitty – Bang – Bang finish

Ron Thornton -
Do you know what a good crew chief is? He is the guy who tells his driver/boss that they are good to go in the fuel department, and is right.

The Final Word – Can Chicago be any wilder than the battle of Richmond?

Ron Thornton -
Oh no, my friend. I mean, with Kevin Harvick managing to keep Carl Edwards behind him as they came to the line, Happy got his fourth win of the season.

Hot 20 over the past 10 – Gordon is blazing, but Keselowski is bringing his own kind of heat

The Final Word – After Atlanta, nine are in, three are holding on, seven others still with a shot at the Chase

Ron Thornton -
Jeff Gordon helped himself to another 3 Chase bonus points and he and Jimmie Johnson put on a show at the end Tuesday.

The hot 20 over the past 10 – If Tony is upset with his performance, imagine what he thinks of Junior’s
