Kyle Larson scored his first Busch Pole Award of the season at Dover International Speedway with a 158.103 mph lap and will lead the field to the green flag in Sunday’s AAA 400. It is his fifth Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series career pole.

I've been at Talladega for some memorable finishes. Dale Jarrett's last win in 2005, Kyle Busch getting his first plate-track win in 2008, Brad Keselowski putting Carl Edwards in the fence and taking home his first NASCAR MENCS win for James Finch in 2009, and last spring when Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. won his first MENCS race. All of these races are etched in my mind.

So far for 2018, there have been four different Truck Series races with four different winners. Drivers will be itching at the bit to get back behind the wheel after a long rest period.  At Dover, there have been five different winners in the past five races.

Sometimes the news is good like it was at Talladega last week. Entertaining races and I loved the Cup guys manning the microphones for the Xfinity race. They were laid back, funny, and in the case of Darrell Wallace, Jr., pretty darn articulate.

NASCAR officials announced Wednesday morning that driver Spencer Gallagher has been indefinitely suspended from NASCAR for violating the sanctioning body‘s substance abuse policy.

Of all the arguments made in favor of the XFINITY Series being a members-only division or at least diminishing the participation of Cup drivers, this stretch of Dash 4 Cash events (Bristol, Richmond, Talladega, Dover) has shown some of the best racing of the 2018 XFINITY season, all of which have been run by series regulars.

Kyle Busch: Busch, seeking his fourth consecutive victory, finished 13th in the Geico 500 at Talladega, and remained atop the Monster Energy Cup points standings.

Talladega was sweet. That was the kind of action that captured my attention as a kid, watching Wide World of Sports. As Jim McKay so iconically put it all those years ago, “Spanning the globe to bring you the constant variety of sport... the thrill of victory... and the agony of defeat... the human drama of athletic competition.” That was Sunday at Talladega.

TALLADEGA, Ala. -- Through the escape hatch with steering wheel in hand, Joey Logano hi-fived his crew, then turned around let out a roar of victory.

TALLADEGA, Ala. -- If you went by Elliott Sadler's post-race photo op after he collected $100,000 in the NASCAR XFINITY Grand National Series Dash 4 Cash, you'd think it was just a run of the mill afternoon. What the race results don't tell you, however, was that he rallied from a speeding penalty that put him a lap down to finish fifth.
