Stars. Many are called, but few are worthy. Each week, NASCAR provides somewhere between 34 and 40 entries out on the track, but fewer than 25 have any legitimate shot at making a difference. We know the names of those who have succeeded, those who have made and earned, a place in the spotlight.
What means more in the long haul when it comes to promoting a new star in NASCAR? Results, or marketability? One would think results, but in the case of Danica Patrick, that was not the case.

Boogity, boggity, boggity. It was Saturday night racing at Kansas, boys. Yes sir, it was the Might As Well Watch Paint Dry 400. Kansas, where excitement goes to die. Kevin Harvick started at the pole and led through to the competition caution. Ryan Blaney led at the re-start and continued to do so right to the end of the opening segment.
The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series returned to Kansas Speedway this past weekend. It was the sixth race of the 2018 racing season and so far, there have been six different winners this year as a new, but familiar, face ended up in victory lane.

Earlier today I watched an Indy Lights race on the road course at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's that had only seven starters, and it was one of the most exciting races I've seen in some time.
The 21-year-old Garcia from Monroe, Georgia, led 104 of 250-scheduled laps and persevered through a fuel-only pit stop prior to the final stage period to become the 219th competitor to win in the Truck division.
