This weekend brings an early break in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
Challenging economic times have affected scheduling for this season’s NASCAR All-American Series at the Bullring and semi-pro drag racing at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
SPRINT CUP
HAMPTON, Ga. — Kurt Busch grabbed the checkered flag, shifted his car into reverse and headed off on a unique victory lap.
It’s time to share some stuff found at the bottom of my reporter’s tool box while cleaning it out after Sunday’s Shelby 427 Sprint Cup race.
The National Hot Rod Association and Las Vegas Motor Speedway announced Thursday a plan to offer reduced ticket prices for next month’s Summit Racing.com NHRA Nationals.
A skidding economy was no reason for Las Vegas race fans to slam on the brakes for this weekend’s event. Some, however, have admitted to gently tapping on them.
Imagine Greg Maddux pitching in a pivotal game and getting the last strikeout for a major league victory on his old Valley High School diamond. Or Andre Agassi pounding a match-winning groundstroke to win a major tennis title here. Neither of those great athletes, who call Las Vegas home, ever had that chance. But NASCAR racer Kyle Busch has had that chance the past five years and on Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, he capitalized on the opportunity and won the Shelby 427 Sprint Cup race.
Clint Bowyer was more concerned about holding off the cars behind him than trying to track down leader Kyle Busch.
