The oft-talked about July 6th NASCAR-administered drug test given to Jeremy Mayfield came back positive for methamphetamine, according to NASCAR. This positive result, combined with allegations from Mayfield’s stepmom saying she witnessed the maligned driver use meth repeatedly, have bolstered NASCAR’s case against Mayfield and also hampered the Kentucky native’s effort to exonerate himself.

The NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship celebration left some New Yorkers with a sour taste and attitude after Manhattan traffic became gridlocked. Several streets had been blocked for the Wednesday morning parade of race cars and for a Christmas tree lighting and what was fun for some turned into early-morning nightmares for others. Continue reading “New Yorkers Get Taste Of Southern Post-Race Traffic“ The annual migration of the 3,500-pound NASCAR racecars is underway as the top teams head from Charlotte to New York to collect the bounty for their accomplishments during the racing season. The championship awards, along with some giant checks, will be handed out Friday night to close a flurry of stockcar activity in the Big Apple this week. Just how those NASCAR high-horse powered racing machines pass the New York emission test is unknown. The top-ten drivers in the point standings rev their engines on Times Square Wednesday morning when they make the last 1.5-mile lap of the 2007 season to celebrate. Continue reading “Hendrick Gang Heads To New York To Pick Up NASCAR Loot“ There were no surprises at Homestead. Jimmy Johnson came and left as champion of the Nextel Cup Series for the second time in-a-row. Johnson finished seventh in the Homestead/Miami race and capped off a season that featured better numbers on his report card than last year. Continue reading “Jimmie Johnson Wears NASCAR Crown For Another Year“ The NASCAR playoffs are over. Jimmie Johnson is the Nextel Cup Champion again. All that is left are the details, obligations, appearances and other required items that public relations people were already scheduling last Sunday night as the haulers pulled out from Arizona headed back East. Jeff Gordon, the owner of the No. 48 race car Johnson drives, is a winner and a loser. He wins the car owner championship, but loses what would have been a fifth driver title for him. We all know Rick Hendrick owns both cars, but Gordon is listed as car owner on the NASCAR race and point reports. It is a little strange though that Gordon is missing from the group photo of the team on the cover of the NASCAR Media Guide. The shot was taken last year as Johnson, Hendrick and the rest of the No. 48 team celebrated their 2006 championship. It is Mr. Hendrick standing next to the trophy in that photo and Gordon nowhere to be found. Fans are down to the final two playoff games of the NASCAR season and the checkered flags can’t fly soon enough for some. There were no surprises in Texas and the championship battle is still between a car owner and his driver. The driver, Jimmie Johnson, took the lead in the points away from his car owner, Jeff Gordon, following Johnson’s win at Texas Motor Speedway. Johnson now has a 30-point advantage over his boss heading to the Phoenix race Sunday. My best guess is you can’t count Clint Bowyer out of the running for the championship completely, but making up the 181-point deficit he left Texas with would be considered a racing miracle. His only chances now are if both Johnson and Gordon have poor finishes this weekend. Continue reading “Final NASCAR Showdowns Set For Phoenix and Miami“ CHECK THIS OUT:
