Opinions on Racing
Well, it’s fairly late at night to be starting to write, but you do what you have to do. I have the good fortune to be able to work part-time with Jason Jarrett, ARCA RE/MAX Series driver, and have been sitting putting press kits together. This team is set to go racing this week. I […]
Well, here we are. The NFL season is over, the Arena League season has begun, the 24 Hours Of Daytona has been run, and that all means one thing – SPEEDWEEKS. Some random thoughts as we countdown to Daytona: The surest sign that a race cannot justify itself comes when its format is constantly changed. […]
Hold on – here is the bump and the SPIN OUT! Well, the off season is over and the Spin Out Guy is ready for some bumper to bumper, side by side racing. Right after the disastrous Winston Cup award ceremony, I was sitting at my assigned seat next to Michael and Buffy Waltrip. I […]
The NASCAR Busch Series prepares for the start of its twenty-second season as testing concluded at the Daytona International Speedway. In preparation for the Koolerz 300 on February 15, 2003, the testing, which finished January 24th was divided into two sessions, fielded by even and odd number positions in the 2002 owners points. Former CART […]
With growing talk about schedule changes in Winston Cup, what will the 2004 schedule look like? What will the 2006 schedule look like? This is asked because the present TV deal will end that season and a new one will be put up for bid or negotiated. Offered is a modest proposal for the 2004 […]
Oh, great. It’s complex enough keeping up with driver and team changes – now the Winston Cup schedule could have its own silly season, this from the top kick himself. Looking decidedly healthy after several years of battling illness, Billy France made the head-turning announcement that Atlanta, Darlington, Rockingham, and Charlotte could see dates shuffled […]

Along with fellow competitor, Andy Belmont and ARCA PR Director, Don Radebaugh, Jason spent a few minutes talking with members, outlining 2003 plans for the ARCA […]
The Winston Cup and Craftsman Truck portions of pre-season testing are wrapped up, and the first page of NASCAR’s aero-matching has been turned. What has been learned from this session? Several things – despite some Chevy grumbling, this test was less rancorous than previous sessions, a good sign for John Darby. The Chevy grumbling was […]
"We’ve all gotta face it sometime. It’s just a matter of time until we all step down. When I look back at what I’ve been able to do, I’m pretty satisfied with my career. There’s a lot of people who chase that dream, and I’ve been fortunate enough to have lived it."1 So stated Bobby […]
Down 24-7, and they won 36-33. Down 38-14 in the third, and they won 39-38. The Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco Forty-Niners delivered two of the most amazing competitions in NFL history. For the Steelers in particular, this comeback personified the comeback that has been their 2002 season and also the career of QB Tommy […]
