While the drivers were getting used to how NASCAR's new spoiler may affect restrictor-plate racing during Tuesday's Sprint Cup test session at Talladega Superspeedway, most of the crew chiefs in the garage area were much more interested in an upcoming two-day test at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Joe Gibbs will be inducted into the Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame on April 16 at Texas Motor Speedway.

The championship lineage of the No. 14 team of Stewart-Haas Racing is impressive and deep.

Glued to Carl Edwards' bumper as they raced for the lead around Talladega Superspeedway, young Brad Keselowski showed no signs of letting off the gas pedal. He peeked high, and Edwards cut him off, then ducked low to try to pass.

When Carl Edwards took revenge on Brad Keselowski near the end of last Sunday's Sprint Cup race in Atlanta, it did more than just wreck Keselowski's No. 12 Dodge — dramatically.

JR Motorsports will try to run two full-time teams this season in the Nationwide Series.

If a driver was able to pick one track where he might not want to make a debut with his new team, Bristol Motor Speedway might be at the top of the list. But, when it comes to 21-year old Coleman Pressley, he simply says "bring it on."

Two years ago, Justin Allgaier was coming off a championship season but unsure whether he'd have a future in racing. Not only does that future look bright, but he's planning on being around for some time to come.

Mobile-Shop will adorn the hood and quarter-panels of Michael McDowell's No. 81 Dodge Charger as the primary sponsor for the Nationwide Series race at Bristol on Saturday, March 20.

It might be tough for the race fans in Elkhart Lake, Wis., to imagine right now, but the inaugural Nationwide Series race at Road America in June isn't that far off. And in two weeks, a car on the track will make that event seem even closer.
