After Daytona in July NASCAR made some changes to qualifying. As teams prepare for this weekend's Geico 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, there will be a new format for qualifying.
This past weekend at Peterborough Speedway, OSCAAR and the Hurricane Midgets announced a merger of the two traveling series, with the midgets now known as the OSCAAR Midgets.
On Sunday afternoon, Andrew Gresel would lead flag-to-flag en route to winning the OSCAAR Super Late Model Autumn Colors Classic 50 for the second straight year in a row. As a result of his solid season all year long with no finishes outside of the top six, he would be crowned the 2014 OSCAAR Super Late Model Champion.
After taking the lead at halfway, Brent McLean wouldn’t look back as he would lead the rest of the way en route to scoring the victory in the OSCAAR Hanover Holiday Modified Autumn Colors Classic 50.
I’ve always said that Charlotte Motor Speedway is the crown palace of NASCAR. The track sits in the sleepy town of Concord, NC (some say it’s closer to Harrisburg, but locals say Concord), and has plenty of camping and lots of trams and golf carts to get you around the 1.5-mile racetrack in quick order.
With new paint schemes under the lights, as well as pink for breast cancer awareness abounding, here is what was surprising and not surprising from the 55th annual Bank of America 500 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
In the final event of the season, James Rodgers got to feel what its like to visit victory lane as he would score the victory in the Autumn Colors Classic feature at Peterborough Speedway.
After a season filled with action across the board, the OSCAAR Super Late Models are set for their final event of the year – the Autumn Colors Classic. With the championship standings on the line, as well as the bragging rights for the ACC, everything was on the line during qualifying.
With the championship almost set in stone, Gary McLean is set to chase his third straight Autumn Colors Classic Championship. Of course, to win, he needs to have a good qualifying spot, considering he isn’t one of the two drivers locked in the front row. Chase for the Colors winner Max Beyore has that honor, with Davey Terry in second. So with that said, qualifying for the modifieds on Friday and Saturday was busy.
The Gran Premio Movistar de Aragon was a chaotic and entertaining 800th premier class Grand Prix. While fans weren’t treated to a close race for the win at the line, it certainly wasn’t a one-bike runaway decided before the halfway point.
The two-time Cup Series champion from Middletown, Connecticut, led nine of 266 over-scheduled laps and became the first Playoff competitor to transfer from the Round of 16 to 12 by winning the 2024 Playoff for the first time ever.
An overtime-inducing caution brought out the yellow with just two laps remaining, as Hemric sat 16th. After one overtime attempt, Hemric finished 11th.
Christopher Bell (fourth) and Tyler Reddick (sixth) both overcame adversity on pit road to lead Toyota with strong top-10 finishes at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Sunday evening.
