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 – Kurt Busch and other boys who have spent time in the dog house

Ron Thornton -
We like who we like, we don't who we don't, and once we don't, it could take years, if ever, for us to change our minds. In a sport where popularity and merchandise sales mean almost as much as the racing, it is a big deal.

Is it just me, or is Denny Hamlin no Rory McIlroy?

Ron Thornton -
Denny Hamlin wins his 17th Cup victory at Michigan...yaaa. I mean, Yaaaah! Oh, who am I kidding?

Greatness still is Jeff Gordon

Ron Thornton -
Richard Petty (200 Cup wins), David Pearson (105), Bobby Allison (84), Darryl Waltrip (84), and Jeff Gordon (84). Three Hall of Famers, one who soon will be, and the winner of the last race at Pocono.

Why is mean old Richard Childress picking on an angel such as Kyle Busch?

Ron Thornton -
You would think the story of the week would have something to do with Dale Earnhardt Jr finishing second for a second straight week.

While Junior’s finish at Charlotte was disappointing, it was no Indianapolis heartbreak

Ron Thornton -
Dale Earnhardt Jr. came within one straightaway of rediscovering Victory Lane for the first time since he used pit strategy to win one at Michigan in June, 2008.

Dover is over, with the stars set to shine this Saturday night

Ron Thornton -
Dover was all about two drivers, at least for much of it. Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards. They took turns taking the lead, at least they did until Clint Bowyer joined the party.

I do believe Kevin Harvick has taken a Shining to Mr. Busch

Ron Thornton -
Kyle Busch sits in the corner of the room, chanting "Redrum. Redrum. Redrum."

Darlington and Richmond are fickle southern ladies who do have their favorites

Ron Thornton -
Next week, the Lady in Black will get her turn in Darlington, not allowing the boys much time to recover after dancing with that gal in Richmond.

Hot 20 over past 10 – Edwards for now, Johnson for later, and Junior by Charlotte?

Ron Thornton -
In tracking the drivers who have been hot over the past ten races, the most recent result replaces the oldest.

Richmond, where the legends play…and win

Ron Thornton -
Richmond. What a strange track that is. Cars going round and round separately, not tied together like conjoined twins, as was the case at Talladega.
