HOORAH to Jack "The Cat In The Hat" Roush. We have never seen the usually stoic team owner of Roush Fenway Racing smile that much. However, last weekend was a major exception.
The night seemed perfect. The glitz was all in place. The fireworks were breath taking. The excitement was palpable. The anticipation was not only visible but audible.
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. held off Carl Edwards and Brad Keselowski to win Sunday’s NASCAR Nationwide series (NNS) John Deere Dealers 250 race at Iowa Speedway.
Right from the green flag it was clear that the man and car to beat was Edwards as he quickly marched to the top three were he would remain the rest of the night. Kyle Busch, who finished second, knew that once Edwards got out front there was no catching him.
As Steve Wallace and Michael Annett put Dover in their rear view mirror and head to the stand alone Nationwide race in Iowa, the teammates of Rusty Wallace Racing agree that they both see the light at the end of the tunnel for Rusty Wallace Racing.
While Penske Racing driver Will Power led Thursday's session, it was his teammate Helio Castroneves taking the top spot today with a speed of 228.611mph on the day before pole qualifying.
Elliott, he 2020 Cup Series champion from Dawsonville, Georgia, led nine of 60-scheduled laps and fended off Carson Hocevar with eight laps remaining to record his third career Daytona Duel victory.
The three-time Cup Series champion from Middletown, Connecticut, led 15 of 63 over-scheduled laps and survived an overtime shootout for his fourth Daytona Duel victory.
Blaney will be right where he wants to be. Being able to put his drafting skills with his strong finishes gives him a great chance of finding his way to the front.
