NASCAR Cup Series

After finishing third in Sunday's Brickyard 400, it is becoming apparent that Regan Smith and Furniture Row Racing like to perform on the big stage.

The brickyard has long been known as the place of dreams. It didn’t change today. Today it saw a young man who has struggled and fought the naysayers to chase his dream.

NASCAR like all sports in the world has many flaws and they need to be addressed. My first question to my viewers is this, Are fuel mileage races healthy for the sport?

Paul Menard Wins the Brickyard 400; Chevrolet takes Ninth Consecutive and 13th Overall Victory at Famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway; Team Chevy Drivers Score Top-Four Finishing Positions and Six of Top-10

Paul Menard won his first career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race in the 18th running of the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway holding off a late race charge from Jeff Gordon.

PAUL MENARD, NO. 27 NIBCO/MENARDS CHEVROLET, RACE WINNER-HIS FIRST CAREER NSCS VICTORY: WHAT IS THIS MOMENT LIKE? "You know I've been coming here since I was a kid and my Daddy has been trying to win this race for 35 years,so this is for my Dad."

With his win in Sunday's Brickyard 400, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Paul Menard is qualified to be a finalist for a chance to earn a $3 million payout in the Sprint Summer Showdown presented by HTC EVOT 3D.

Kyle Busch (10th) was the highest finishing Toyota driver in Sunday's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

BRAD KESELOWSKI (No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger R/T) Finished Ninth “It was kind of an up-and-down day for the Miller Lite Dodge. At the three-quarter part of the race I thought that we were going to win the Brickyard."

MATT KENSETH - No. 17 Crown Royal Ford Fusion - IT WAS A GOOD RUN. "Yeah, we ran really good. We were probably the second-best car most of the day. I think the 24 had the field covered, so I'm happy for Paul Menard being a first-time winner."
