It was a dominating day for Martin Truex, Jr. at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday.  Truex led 150 of the race's 267 laps and claimed all three stages, but needed a next-to-last lap pass of Brad Keselowski to win his first race at Vegas.

Three races are completed in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship and Martin Truex, Jr. has won two of them.  Racing at Dover International Speedway, what he considers his "home" track, Truex beat second-place Kyle Busch to the finish line by more than 7 and a half seconds for his second career victory at Dover and his fourth win this year. ...

The first race in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship at Chicagoland Speedway goes to Martin Truex, Jr.  Using a late pit stop for new tires, Truex caught and passed rookie Chase Elliott in the final restart of the race and held on for the victory.  Elliott had led 75 laps until that last caution flag came out.

Martin Truex, Jr. led the final 28 laps and all of them came after he passed Ryan Newman for the lead and went on to win Sunday night's Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway.  It's the second win of the season for Truex and the fifth of his career. The b...

It was an incredible record-breaking night for Martin Truex, Jr. at Sunday's Coca-Cola 600.  He led all but eight of the race's 400 laps.  He had the lead for 588 of 600 miles – the most ever in a single race in NASCAR history. And so after disappointments at Texas, Kansas and Dover earlier this year, Truex finally has his first win of the season and the fourth of his career.

Kyle Busch became the Sprint Cup Series first three-time winner this season when he held off Kevin Harvick on a late restart for his first career win at Kansas Speedway on Saturday night.  It leaves just Charlotte and Pocono as the only tracks where Kyle has yet to win.

An incredible finish to the Daytona 500.  Denny Hamlin moved from fourth to pass Matt Kenseth on the final lap and edged Martin Truex, Jr. at the finish line by one/one hundredth of a second in the closest finish in the 58-year history of the race.  The margin of victory was just four inches giving Hamlin his first Daytona 500 win, the first for Toyota and the first for Joe Gibbs Racing since Dale

Make it three straight wins for Joey Logano and a sweep of the second round of this year's Chase for the Sprint Cup.  Logano was just inches ahead of Dale Earnhardt, Jr. when the final caution ended the race during a green-white-checkered finish.

With 'Avengers 2' over seven months away, it seems a little premature to already be talking about 'Avengers 3' rumors, but this one was too big and too crazy to ignore. A recent report claims that Marvel - following in the footsteps of 'The Hobbit' and 'The Hunger Games' - is looking to split 'Avengers 3' into two films that would be released in back-to-back years.

After a week off, Sprint Cup is back along with the Truck Series on the short track at Martinsville Speedway. We’ll get to see how much tempers have cooled down after a number of incidents involving Joey Logano.

During the week when I do my Noon Tunes Request Show, I get a lot of requests for Hank Williams, Jr., but obviously we can't really play him on that show because his music is not part of the regular WYRK play list. So I thought for this weeks show, we would give a treat to all the "Bocephus" fans in Western New York and wherever else you are listening from...

For the first time since the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship format began it’ll start at a track other than New Hampshire. The 10-week Chase begins this Sunday with a 400-mile race at the 1.5 mile Chicagoland Speedway.
