Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at the Glen review: the Said and Biffle incident, wild wrecks, the Tasmanian Devil, and some suprise contenders.
Roush Fenway Racing teammates David Ragan and Ricky Stenhouse Jr will drive in the Grand Am Rolex Series race at Watkins Glen International.
David Ragan was able to redeem his Daytona 500 mistake with a victory in the Coke Zero 400. Others were not so fortunate when dealing with the two-car tandem.
On the second attempt at a green-white-checkered-flag finish, Ragan was out front when caution flew on the 10th lap of overtime in Saturday night’s Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway, giving the driver of the No. 6 Ford his first NASCAR Sprint Cup victory.
Flawless work during mandatory four-tire pit stops before the final 10-lap shootout helped Carl Edwards win the Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
Donnie Wingo has been replaced as crew chief for Roush Fenway Racing’s No. 6 Sprint Cup team by Drew Blickensderfer, who moves up from the team’s Nationwide Series program. Mike Beam will assume crew chief duties for RFR’s No. 60 Nationwide Series Ford and driver Carl Edwards. Wingo joined RFR in 2008 as crew chief [...]
After a red flag and a rain delay, Greg Biffle outran pole-sitter Tony Stewart to the finish line, winning the Sunoco Red Cross Pennsylvania 500 at Pocono Raceway by 3.598 seconds.
In retrospect, letting Jamie McMurray go was a mistake for Jack Roush. But, given the circumstances at the time, Roush shouldn’t be kicking himself over it.
Kevin Harvick, polesitter for the Coke Zero 400 due to qualifying being rained out, won the wreck-filled restrictor plate race at Daytona International Speedway. On a green-white-checkered finish, Harvick drove by teammate Clint Bowyer for the lead, then held off Jeff Gordon and Kasey Kahne to win.
Denny Hamlin won a rain-delayed Gillette Fusion ProGlide 500 at Pocono Raceway when the caution flew for an eight-car pileup occured on the Long Pond straightaway during a green-white-checkered finish. The win is Hamlin’s fourth of the year, the most in the series.
