Tough luck again for Dale Earnhardt, Junior.  Earnhardt looked like he might be able to make a charge in the final laps at Kansas, but it was Brad Keselowski who held on, leading the final 9 laps to win his first race of the year and end a 75-race winless streak. ...

You couldn’t have asked for a better race at any level at any track.  On the final lap any one of four cars could have won and when the checkered flag flew it was a moment before anyone realized exactly who had won.  But when the dust all settled a video review showed it was Jimmie Johnson who won the Aaron’s 499 at Talladega edging Clint Bowyer by 0.002 of a second – that’s less than a foot.  Rea

Chalk up a second straight win for Kevin Harvick.  Harvick took the lead with four laps to go when he passed Dale Earnhardt, Junior and held on to take the checkered flag at Martinsville Speedway. Kyle Busch had the dominant car, leading 151 laps and was in the lead when Earnhardt passed him by bumping him out of the way with 20 laps left.  Th...

If you are a superstitious person, you can blame me for the fact that Junior will have to start at the back of the field this weekend.  Yesterday I spoke with a listener that has the pole position in our race pool and said that he is good to go as long as something dumb doesn't happen to Jr's car before this weekend.
