It’s been a long, long time since the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series has raced nine time in a 10-day stretch. In fact, it was before Kraig Kinser was even born, the last time the series had a stretch of races that fit that bill. The third-generation driver will get his chance to try his hand at competing every night sans one, over a 10-day span, as the World of Outlaws begin a swing that will take them from the Pacific Northwest to California.
After Camry driver Kyle Busch claimed victories in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) and NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) races last week at Bristol Motor Speedway, his Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) teammate Matt Kenseth captured the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) checkered flag for a Toyota sweep in Tennessee. Busch utilized a late-race pass on the half-mile oval to win Wednesday's Truck Series event and went on to dominate Friday's NNS event, where he led 228 laps (of 250). Kenseth led a race -high 149 laps (of 500), and held off a fast- closing Kasey Kahne over the final laps to register his fifth NSCS win of 2013 -- the most in the series.
Twists and Turns...Making its return to road-course racing after 13 years, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) will cross the Canadian border this week for some winding roads and tricky turns. On Sunday afternoon, Jeb Burton and the No. 4 Arrowhead team will take on the 2.459-mile course at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park for the three-day event surrounding the inaugural Chevrolet Silverado 250 on Labor Day weekend.
Giv'n Her In Canada...The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) goes north of the border to Canada for the series' first international trip in its 18 years of competition. Making its inaugural trip to Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville, Ontario, the Truck Series will return to a road course for the first time since 2000. The 10-turn course features long straightaways, high-speed corners, esses and elevation changes, all of which will combine to create one of the most interesting races of the 2013 season.

Atlanta Motor Speedway is really fast. The 1.5-mile oval in suburban Atlanta traditionally spins some of the fastest laps in the NASCAR universe, and it will be a challenge again Saturday for Nationwide Series drivers in the Great Clips/Grit Chips 300.

Tested and Ready… With two weeks of late-race bad luck to put behind them, Dakoda Armstrong and the No. 60 WinField racing team head to Canadian Tire Motorsports Park Sunday for the inaugural NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) event at the 2.45-mile road course. Competing in his first road course event since a 10th-place result in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards race at New Jersey Motorsports Park in 2011, Armstrong feels confident his prior experiences will prove beneficial and help him get up to speed quickly this weekend. Though most NCWTS competitors have yet to see the course that sits just outside Toronto, Ontario, Armstrong participated in a road course driving school testing session two weeks ago to get acclimated to the right and left hand turns before the Chevrolet Silverado 250.
