    This week kicks off Rolex 24 activities.The field ran the Motule Pole Award 100 to determine starting positions for the Rolex 24 coming up this weekend. Recently retired NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson will be driving in the event.
    Kyle Larson led the Winternationals feature race securing the win while pulling away from the field. Darrell Lanigan qualified for one of the B Mains but was unable to make the feature.
    Tony Stewart won his first race of the year in a 410 Sprint car race over the weekend at the Wild Wing Shootout in Arizona Arizona

    Fifteen year old Drake Troutman stunned the field of 48 entries and took a win in the Winternationals in the UMP Modified race
    The Daytona 500 is only a few weeks away now. It will be nice to have races back on TV. You have to wonder if last year was just the beginning of Chase Elliott starting a legacy of his own or will he not be able to defend his championship? Will Kyle Larson have as big of impact in his NASCAR return as he did on dirt last year? Team 23XI all hype or can Bubba back up all of the publicity with results on the track? Will Gordon and Bowyer make it through the broadcasting season without a fight?
