Bringing you the best in NASCAR news and opinion. Get your day rolling right ... or left, whichever.  • From the Department of the Obvious (but still true): NASCAR needs Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kyle Busch to step it up in 2010. [ Scene Daily ] • Bad news: more job cuts are ...

Victory video: Love for Denny Hamlin? Is that too much to ask?
Lest we forget, Jimmie Johnson wasn't the only winner on Sunday night. Denny Hamlin ran away with the Ford 400, and if he hadn't had a couple misfires earlier in the Chase, this could've been a lot more interesting from a championship standpoint. So before we continue with the JJ love, let's ...

Joey Logano claws his way to Rookie of the Year
In news that surprised exactly no one, Joey Logano has taken the Sprint Cup Rookie of the Year award, knocking off Max Papis and Scott Speed . Stiff competition there, huh? Since rookies tend to have about as much success in NASCAR as turkeys on Thanksgiving, the rookie of the year award isn't ...

Stale Whines: 'Jimmie's success is a product of the Chase'
NASCAR fans have a lot to say about everything in the sport. Sometimes it's positive, and sometimes it veers into foot-stomping, tantrum-throwing complaining. But are the fans legitimately mad, or are they just griping because it's not their guy holding up the trophy? Tough question, and ...

The 2009 season: The party's over! Let the party begin!
Time to put the 2009 season on the shelf once and for all. Were you ready for it to be done, or do you want a year-round schedule? (Bite your tongue, year-rounders. We need a breather!) Anyway, even though the racing is done for the year, we're not going anywhere. We'll be posting plenty every ...

Forget Kobe, Tiger, Brady; Jimmie Johnson is today's top athlete
On Sunday night, Jimmie Johnson clinched his fourth straight Sprint Cup championship, and in so doing cemented his place among the greats of the sport. But he's done more than that; he's now propelled himself above and beyond NASCAR. He's the most successful athlete currently competing right ...

Kurt Busch throws his crew chief under the bus with a smile
One of the bigger surprises of the 2009 Chase came when Pat Tryson, crew chief for Kurt Busch , announced in October that he would be leaving the No. 2 Dodge team to go crew Martin Truex Jr. 's new team. Sure, it was an unfortunately-timed split, but the team looked like it was going to make ...

Tony Stewart, Juan Pablo Montoya spice up Miami
For those of you distraught at the accounting-firm state of much of NASCAR lately, you've got to love what's gone on this weekend at Homestead. First it was Denny Hamlin and Brad Keselowski throwing down at Saturday night's Nationwide race, bringing to an end -- for now -- 18 months of brawling ...

Hamlin pays back Keselowski, sort of
Last week at Phoenix, Denny Hamlin promised he'd be the first one to Brad Keselowski's "pay window," and sure enough he was. Thirty-four laps into Saturday's Nationwide race at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Hamlin dumped Keselowski, who was running eighth at the time, as they came off ...

Get to know Dave Rogers, Kyle Busch's new crew chief
sports.yahoo.com — We all know Kyle Busch 's team is running with a new crew chief. Seemed the perfect time to make the swap, considering the old one, Steve Addington, had just won the Wypall Crew Chief of the Week Award by helping Kyle come from 41st to finish fourth at Martinsville. So who's the new kid in ... (more) Get to know Dave Rogers, Kyle Busch's new crew chief
Kasey Kahne's eyes are beginning to wander from RPM
We're inside 48 hours from the final race of the season, and with the drama all but squeezed out of the Chase for the Sprint Cup, we're forced to look elsewhere for our storylines of interest. So thank you, Kasey Kahne , for giftwrapping this one for us. Kahne, as you know, is one of the most ...
