Not only will Corey Heim be making his NASCAR Cup Series debut in this Sunday’s Würth 400 at Dover Motor Speedway, but he’ll do so in a car paying homage to “The King,” Richard Petty. Legacy Motor Club unveiled the special Dollar Tree paint scheme featuring the iconic Petty Blue and Day-Glo Red. The paint scheme celebrates Petty’s 200th win in the Cup Series, which came in the 1984 Firecracker 400 at Daytona. No pressure, kid. Erik Jones’ name will remain above the door, though he won’t take part in Sunday’s race. Jones announced Tuesday he suffered a spinal fracture during the Lap 157 wreck d...

Michael McDowell was leading coming to the start-finish-line during the GEICO 500, but he ended up wrecking the field on the final lap at Talladega. Denny Hamlin was watching with a keen eye, and he tried to figure out if there was a way the No. 34 could’ve taken the checkered flag. During the latest episode of his Actions Detrimental podcast, Hamlin elaborated on how McDowell could’ve successfully held on to the victory over the weekend. “So the only way he could have defended this, is to backup heavily to the No. 6, when the No. 6 started backing off of him. He should have backed up heavily ...

NASCAR announced Tuesday that it will use this year’s All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro Speedway to experiment new tires that Goodyear developed in hopes of having quicker wear than Goodyear’s current slick tires. The new tire uses rubber typically used for rain tires. NASCAR President Steve Phelps told Bob Pockrass of FOX Sports that the sanctioning body is looking to acquire information they can potentially use in points races moving forward. “Whether it’s formats or it’s just opportunities to test, right, it’s an exhibition race, so you don’t wanna do those things in points events,” Phelps ...

Kyle Petty had nothing but praise for the confidence Tyler Reddick drove with on the last lap during the GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. The No. 45 wheelman steadied his car and drove through the wreckage ahead of him, all the way to victory lane, when the odds were stacked against him. Petty believes it took a lot of guts for Reddick to stay in the gas, and even compared his mindset to that of his team-owner’s in Michael Jordan. “If there’s a brick wall in front of you stay in the gas, especially on the last lap. We saw that from Tyler Reddick. We saw on the last lap, Michael McDowell m...

The odds for the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series title have been updated following the GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway over the weekend. The victor was the No. 45 Toyota of Tyler Reddick, which filled team-owner Michael Jordan with glee, as he finally was able to celebrate an in-person victory with his team. It was a special moment for Jordan and NASCAR as a whole, as the NBA legend transcended the sport’s bubble, and was simply happy for his wheelman. Ahead of next weekend’s race at Dover, there’s a litany of drivers looking to clinch their spot in the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series playoffs. As the camp...

After a terrifying wreck during this past Sunday’s GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, it’s been revealed thatErik Jones has suffered a spinal fracture. That means Jones will be sidelined for this Sunday’s Würth 400 at Dover Motor Speedway, and beyond that is anyone’s guess. An outpouring of support for Jones has been the awesome response to the news, with a key figure in NASCAR, and Jones’ team, offering his take on the matter. Jimmie Johnson, one of the owners of Jones’ Legacy Motor Club team, responded to the No. 43 wheelman’s announcement with a heart-warming statement, revealing how muc...

This past Sunday’s GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway was largely a battle of who could save their fuel the best for the duration of the 188 laps. For a majority of the race, the entire field didn’t run full throttle, which led to a rather tame Talladega for the first two stages. Joey Logano, speaking on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Tuesday, said the strategy of saving fuel came down to drivers being “scared” to pull out of line due to how hard it was to pass on the racetrack. “The issue is we can’t move through the field,” Logano said. “You can’t pass cars. And so, everyone’s scared to pull out of...

A certain victory from Denny Hamlin’s past came to mind, as he watched Tyler Reddick take the checkered flag at Talladega over the weekend. During the latest episode of his Actions Detrimental podcast, Hamlin harkened back to his 2020 Daytona 500 victory, where he was able to beat Ryan Newman and Ryan Blaney to the line. While Newman’s frightening injury afterwards is what many remember that moment for, it was a great piece of driving from Hamlin. The No. 11 kept his car steady, and was able to beat Blaney to the line, as the field began to wreck behind them. Alas, it was eerily similar to wha...
