As we head towards the weekend, I’ve got a couple of topics I wanted to cover regarding the recent goings on surrounding pit road. New Gas Man Rule NASCAR announced a few weeks back that gas men are no longer allowed to attempt extra work while fueling the car during pit stops. What the rule [...]

March 16th, 2009 T.C. In past posts here at TNI, we’ve made no bones about the fact that we think the Truck Series gets the shaft. The series proves its worth week in and week out, and has arguably the best racing of the big three. Some of you are finally starting to take notice of the trucks though, as TV [...]

January 6th, 2009 T.C. Jayski is reporting tonight what we told you almost a month ago (December 10th), that Fastenal is moving its sponsorship from Chip Ganassi Racing to Richard Childress Racing’s Nationwide Series program. According to the report, the #2 Fastenal Chevy will be shared by Clint Bowyer, Martin Truex Jr, and Scott Pruett. Chalk up another point [...]
Happy Thanksgiving from the Insiders
November 27th, 2008 T.C. Both myself and Journo hope everyone has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. Eat some turkey, enjoy some football, and pass out on the couch about 5PM. That’s what we will be doing anyway… I also wanted to take this opportunity, since it is Thanksgiving, to thank those who have been with us and helped us [...]

October 13th, 2008 Journo I’m not really sure where the rumor du jour originated this weekend, and frankly it doesn’t matter, but this idea that NASCAR might be making the starting fields in every series smaller does not make a whole lot of sense. This rumor emerged Monday on Yahoo Sports, with writer Bob Margolis saying it was, “another sign of the times.” Would someone [...]

June 10th, 2008 T.C. As expected, Michael Waltrip Racing’s PR department came out with a response today to our report from last week (June 3rd) that they were having some financial difficulties. They, of course, denied that there were any problems with the team and that they were as strong as ever. After having our post picked up by [...]

May 19th, 2008 T.C. There was a blurb today on Jayski from the Des Moines Register where Richard Childress said that Iowa Speedway would be great for a Nationwide Series race, possibly coupled with a Truck Series race. I cannot agree with him more. I’ve been to Iowa Speedway a few times for different races and it is a great facility. [...]

April 15th, 2008 T.C. When it comes to NASCAR rumors I think most fans turn to Jayski and a lot of other NASCAR websites and blogs. But I’ve got to tell you, the worst place for rumors running rampant, is inside the race shop. Not to put the world famous Jayski or any other sites down, because Jayski is [...]
