INSIDE RACING
Kyle Busch has been making plenty of noise in the Nationwide and Truck series, but he's been awfully quiet in Sprint Cup. What gives?
The math says Mark Martin is still in contention for his first Sprint Cup championship. The reality? The best Martin likely can do is finish second -- for the fifth time in his career.
There is a kinship between racers and soldiers that runs deeper than sponsorship dollars. That much was evident Friday at Texas Motor Speedway, where NASCAR Nation remembered the fallen at Fort Hood.
Jimmie Johnson already has a concrete monster trophy this year. What if NASCAR had a Heisman? We'll call it the Petty Trophy, and JJ gets that, too.
