Driver Profile: Just Who Is Carl Edwards?

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 13 days ago from bump-drafts.com

Is he Opie Taylor or Eddie Haskell? The Lone Ranger or Black Bart? Makes me think of the Bruce Springsteen tune "Two Faces." A closer look at Cousin Carl reveals a color, persistence and a fearless approach to handling the car- all the ingredients that factored into a 2007 Busch Series title.

Behold! The Power of a NASCAR Sponsorship

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 16 days ago from bump-drafts.com

Being a family guy, I am keenly aware of the power of advertising. NASCAR sponsorships are no exception. My wife shares a funny story about a trip to the store that reveals "We've Got It"....pretty bad.

Driver Profile: Dale Earnhardt Jr., NASCAR's Favorite Son

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 17 days ago from bump-drafts.com

A 3rd generation NASCAR driver and son of one its greatest stars, was there any doubt that Dale Earnhardt Jr. would drive a race car? No question he loves what he does, but one wonders if he wouldn;t rather live without all the trappings that come with it.

NASCAR's All Time Best- The Top 10

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 20 days ago from bump-drafts.com

Who's number one? Petty? Earnhardt? Maybe Gordon? There are plenty of first ballot hall of fame possibilities, but in my humble opinion, this heads the class.

A sure sign of struggling times was evident in the parting of company between the legendary Petty Enterprises organization and 2000 Cup chmpion Bobby Labonte. What will become of Texas Terry's younger brother? we make the case there's still a place in NASCAR for the one-time Joe Gibbs standout.

Driver Profile: Kyle Busch, NASCAR's Guilty Pleasure

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 27 days ago from bump-drafts.com

Admit it, whether you love him or hate him- you know NASCAR needs a villain, a successful villain like Kyle Busch to drive fan interest. With 21 wins over 3 series in 2008, he ain't going away. Admit it, deep down inside you love the "devil may care" attitude.

As man and machinery have intersected at great speeds, a number of spectacular collisions have resulted. It may be a sensitive subject for some, but NASCAR racing has produced some truly "shocking and awing" crashes that drivers have miraculously walked away from.

I'm not much for watching awards shows, but Dale Jr's acceptance speech for his 6th straight "Most Popular Driver" award reveals he may on to what's been missing in his pursuit on the "Road To Glory."

Why I Am Sometimes Ashamed To Be A Part Of The Media

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 12/6/2008 from bump-drafts.com

Maybe its some bad combination of caffeine and sugar in my system, but the report I found online by Jay Busbee by way of John Newsom got my blood boiling. Somebody needs to explain to me why this report of a bouncer at Dalr Jr's Whiskey River for dealing coke is a sports story.

NASCAR Driver Profile: Kurt Busch, A Prescription for Fireworks

jimmccoy22 jimmccoy22 posted 12/5/2008 from bump-drafts.com

If not for NASCAR, Kurt Busch might be dispensing your blood pressure medicine. No doubt he's raised some heart rates with his hard-charging style and competitive nature. Some march to the beat of a different drum. Kurt Busch seems more in step with a tuba.

The middle third of the season provided plenty of action- whether it was the Junior- Kyle Busch incident at Atlanta, Kasey Kahne mid-season run or the announced move to ownership by Tony Stewart at Stewart- Haas Racing. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
