NASCAR comes home this weekend to kick off what in my opinion is the best two weeks on the motorsport schedule. $2,000,000 is on the line this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway and the best stock car drivers in the world will lay it all out on the line hoping to hoist that check when the dust settles.
This weekend at Sunset Speedway, the OSCAAR Super Late Models will begin their 2013 season with the Lucie Aylwin Memorial Night. Teams have already been out testing in preparation for the event.

In the fourth day of testing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, it would once again be an Andretti Autosport driver topping the charts. James Hinchcliffe would take his turn at the top of the charts with a speed of 224.210 mph. Though he didn't make that lap in his own car - he was driving his teammate Marco Andretti's car.
On what has become a Mother’s day weekend tradition at the historic Darlington Raceway, here is what was surprising and not surprising in the 64th annual Bojangles’ Southern 500.
Yes, Jimmie Johnson has a considerable margin over the field right now (44pts) but Matt Kenseth who sits 3rd in the standings has put up performances as good as if not better than the 5-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion. Through just 11 races, he's led 781 laps which is already more than 9 of his 13 previous Cup seasons including his 2003 championship run.
Matt Kenseth is a man of history. Rarely have we seen anyone more excited than Matt Kenseth for winning Darlington’s Southern 500. In my youth, this was one of the sacred crowns of the NASCAR Sprint Cup circuit until the powers that be decided that the old track was not worthy of two races a few years ago. The track is tough and it takes a special talent to win at the egg-shaped track, but few had as much fun winning a race here than Matt Kenseth.
NASCAR is that one sport we have in America that has just as many pros as it has cons, but the cons unfortunately outweigh the pros. What it is going to take for NASCAR to grow a pair and make the right calls? What is it going to take for NASCAR to realize that their stupidity doesn't bring more fans to the track?
Jeff Gordon’s never had a problem racking up impressive statistics. He’s a four-time Sprint Cup champion, has 87 career wins and 72 poles.

Darlington Raceway needs no introduction this week. Its the 64th annual Bojangles' Southern 500 and there's a reason why the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series has continued to come back to the track Too Tough To Tame year after year.
