RaceDriven.com is four years old today (March 12, 2009).
2009-03-12 20:19:00 What an achievement this is for me, my first and only blog RaceDriven.com that currently has over 630 postings, turns four years old today (March 12, 2009).Around four years ago, I was introduced to the world of blogging though some online friends, a televisoon show called "The Screen Savers on Techtv with Leo Laporte, Kevin Rose and more" and a blogging article, blogging in my eyes is a good way to express yourself, in a since, it’s voicing your opinion, but in a soft tone and yet can still being heard or read by many. Blogging is publishing your opinion on any given subject, like for example, from my passions in life like listening to country music, writing itself or Motorsports, NASCAR and Automobiles.Back on March 12, 2005, I started this blog called RaceDriven.com. The name basically comes from first, being a huge Motorsports and Car enthusiast and second, being driven in life to succeed, with that, RaceDriven.com was born. In creating and developing RaceDriven.com, I’ve le... More About: Today , Years
NASCAR Atlanta race debate continues: Gas Man suspended for four races and
2009-03-11 08:30:00 A picture is worth a thousand words and this picture shows both discussions in details with #47 gas man chased after his driver's loose wheel, some empty seats on the front straightaway during the Cup race and Clint Bowyer in the #33 BB&T Chevrolet racing at full speed, wow what a picture. (Photo Credit: NASCAR.com via Yahoo! Sports)The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Atlanta Motor Speedway this past weekend debate lives on with two key discussions.1) Marcos Ambrose’s crew member did what during Sunday’s Cup Series race? In case you didn’t see what happened, here’s the NASCAR.com video, basically, on lap 67 during a round of green flag pit stops, the #47 car made a normal pit stop, during the stop, a tire got away, so the gas man of the #47-Marcos Ambrose’s team, chased the loose tire which was halfway to the flag stand on front straightway by the time he caught it and rolled it back, because he went out to get the tire during green conditions, NASCAR called for a ca...

Project D-100, Cherry Bomb's 1964 Dodge Truck Hot Rod
2009-03-09 19:02:00 Blogging in my eyes is publishing your comments on any given topic, it’s a way for the blogger/writer to have a soft voice, but yet still be heard, now with that in mind, on any given day, RaceDriven.com receives several emails from PR firms and advertising companies known as press releases, the subjects differ from Motorsports, Automobiles, and beyond, mainly of course given that RaceDriven is mainly talking about NASCAR, the releases are NASCAR driven from anything that has to do with the drivers, teams including a crew chief being released or hired, owners, sponsors including the new official hotel of a race team in Atlanta (or somewhere else) and beyond.So when I read a release in my email box, first I am happy that I am even considered to be on their list, however not all releases I can work with, only a handful of them I will publish to be specific, while reading a release, I look for a way to adapt the subject into either a current article I am writing or a completely new a...

History told us that the Kobalt Tools 500 at Atlanta would be exciting, but
2009-03-09 01:00:00 Welcome back ladies and gentlemen, before I discuss earlier today’s Kobalt Tools 500 (yes I am plugging the sponsor as a NASCAR fan, no, nobody paid me too) at the Atlanta Motor Speedway, right now, the key word here is history, so leading up to the 100th NASCAR Cup race at Atlanta, I thought that I would look back over the last 10 years, there has been several exciting Cup Series races and finishes here at Atlanta, so let’s take a look back at a few of those historical races.When it comes to NASCAR fans talking about memorable finishes and victories at Atlanta Motor Speedway, three come to mind right from the start, ironically enough, all three would come in the spring race at Atlanta, the first one extends all the way back to March 20, 2000, the Cracker Barrel 500, a race that was dominated early and often by Mike Skinner in the #31 with Larry McReynolds on top of the pit box, Skinner would lead 191 laps and was closing in on the finish, however disaster struck the RCR driver ...

The Good and The Bad: Survivor, CSI with Taylor Swift, Burn Notice and Bull
2009-03-07 02:13:00 As a part of the entertainment side of my life, television is something that I enjoy regularly, however Thursday night is one of those nights depending upon the time of year that normally seems to be interesting for me, what a line up on television that I set to tape on my DVR from my local cable company. Yes, it’s rare for me to watch anything live anymore with the exception of watching NASCAR racing, so taping them and watching them anywhere between 30 minutes later to the next day is normal for me. Survivor is normal to me, I rarely miss an episode of it and that goes for the hit show Burn Notice and the new season of Bull run (Bullrun 2) that gets really nasty at times, however when it comes to CSI, that is a completely different story.The good of the night: So let’s start with CSI: Crime Scene Investigation from last night, for some reason or another, I hate the sight of blood and dead bodies, some people are scared of spiders, snakes, I am hate the sight of blood and dead b...

What a difference: California Speedway to Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the
2009-03-05 03:33:00 The start to the Shelby 427 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway this past weekend for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race. (Photo Credit: Todd Warshaw/Getty Images via NASCAR PR)What a difference from last weekend’s Auto Club 500 race at California Speedway to this past weekend’s Shelby 427 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, wow, that statement is putting it loosely, where do I start?First, in the eyes of this NASCAR fan and writer, one of the biggest noticeable differences had to be the near sellout crowd in Las Vegas vs. whatever that was at California Speedway. There has been a lot of discussion online as to why California Speedway has two Cup Series dates while other tracks, either has one or none?Let me state the obvious right from the start, I have nothing against the state of California hosting one, two or three Cup Series dates, including one Cup date in Sonoma that draws a great crowd on the road course, that isn’t the issue here, however it is about California Speedway and their lac...
Bullrun 2: Episode 2 – No dice for Team Pantera.
2009-02-28 23:20:00 Image Credit:Team Pantera (CarDomain site)Time seems to be the key in Bullrun season 2, time for the teams to get up to speed, time to get from one checkpoint to the next checkpoint, best time in the challenge to stay in the game and yet more time for the fans of the show to get use to the new format and new unique cast of charactors and vehicles.As a fan of the original Bullrun almost two years ago, I have to say that the new format is really starting to grow on me. Back in the original season, there really was little to no chance for a team that made a slight or huge mistake in the legs, getting from checkpoint to checkpoint to dig out of the hole and not be elimated, however for this new format in season 2, the format allows a team that made a slight mistake in the legs to have a second chance at survival and at the same time not pon off the bad time on another team, does “poison arrow” ring a bell from the original Bullrun, not in season 2, even if you get lost in a leg, you...

What is Honda's Dream the Impossible Documentary Series?
2009-02-26 02:47:00 About a week ago, I received an email asking me if I was aware of Honda's latest campaign, DREAM THE IMPOSSIBLE Documentary Series featuring Danica Patrick, and many others and if I would check out what turned out to be three short films. First, no I was aware of Honda’s campaign, second, would I check them out? I get these types of emails every now and then and mostly I will check it out, but not write on it, however something do peak my interest with one of these three short films, it hit home, sort of...The title of the first short film is unique, “Failure: The secret of success”,Failure: The secret of success is true even to me, I lived my life mainly using logic and by trial and error, trial and error is either success or learning from your mistakes, if you don’t try in life or take control in life, you are never going to know.

Is this drawing a 1930's Ford 5 window coupe or 1930's Willy's coupe?
2009-02-22 03:00:00 As I sit here watching NASCAR on television in my bedroom late on a Saturday night, I've noticed the drawing below hanging in a document's frame on the wall above my cabnet and every since I meet Chip Foose last month at the 2009 World of Wheels in Boston, I've been asking this question, what is the vehicle in the picture below?, I was thinking about finding a diecast of it and later buying the real thing to drive around town, so is it a 1930's Ford 5 window coupe or a 1930's Willy's coupe? If you know the answer, please leave a comment.If you like what you read, please share the articles with others below and check out more articles at RaceDriven.com, Thank You!

Bullrun 2 on SPEED - One Helluva Ride hits the streets: Team Porsche is sen
2009-02-20 07:38:00 As I sit here watching the first episode of SPEED’s new series Bullrun for the second time after last week’s sneak peak which was the full first episode, I remember watching the first season of Bullrun on Spiketv back in 2007, what a distance to season 2, however if you want to caught up or your new to Bullrun, below is the recap on final three episodes of Bullrun season 1: Final four: Team Lotus goes home, Final three: Team Charger goes home, setting up Team Trans-Am, Team F-150 and Team Olds, the run to the Border, And the winner of Bullrun is: where Team Trans-Am winning, a 2002 Pontiac Trans-am WS6, driven by the father (Mike)/daughter (Morgan) team…)So with that said, Bullrun season 2 seems to be starting out almost right where they left off almost two years ago, however while the cars are different, so is the format.

First Keith Urban, second rain, third NASCAR declares Matt Kenseth the winn
2009-02-16 02:16:00 The title of this article says it all, first, it’s always cool to see NASCAR turn to country music for someone to rock the prerace Daytona 500 party, last year, they had Brooks & Dunn, this year it was Keith Urban . I’ve got to say that I’ve been a country music fan for a long time and I’ve really gotten into it in 2005 when I was introduced to Carrie Underwood’s music, so to see NASCAR continue that with Keith Urban on stage was good. Nice set by Keith Urban, I believe I heard three songs from him, I might consider getting a couple of those songs. By the way, Sweet Thing, the music video has a sweet, black 1969 Ford Mustang in it and that to me is sweet thing for sure.Country star Keith Urban performs a pre-race concert prior to the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway.

NASCAR shows zero tolerance in Nationwide and Truck series races at Daytona
2009-02-15 00:51:00 I’ve been watching NASCAR for over 17 years now, and in that time, I have seen a lot of things go down, amazing drivers retire, new drivers come into the sport, stock cars changing, racetracks come and go, attendance, tickets, and diecast prices highs and lows and more, however in my opinion one of the most talked about areas in NASCAR really has to do with both on-track and off-track calls made by NASCAR. NASCAR has not always made the best calls or consistent calls from the tower or the NASCAR hauler, one of the most classic examples has been the judgment calls on the yellow line rule at both Daytona and Talladega, did a driver push another driver below the yellow line or did a driver just go below the yellow line to advance their position, which isn’t allowed and the calls are mixed.Another move with the inconsistent calls is on rough driving, the art of making pass cleanly, payback on track or off and more through all of NASCAR.

2009-02-14 20:04:00 With Joey Logano set to make his debut in the #20 Home Depot Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing tomorrow in the Daytona 500, I have come up with a few thoughts and a little humor, first, in watching all of SPEED, FOX and ESPN's coverage, I've noticed that just about every media and fan has huge expections for this kid, so hear our my expections for Joey Logano in his rookie season in the Cup Series ...Joey Logano will be watched by many including me as I have picked him to be the rookie of the year in 2009. In my opinion, nobody really should expect so much for this driver, the goal in my eyes is simple, stay in top 35 in owner’s and drivers points, make all 36 races in 2009 and start to become a contender week in and week out for victories. Logano will not be a hit right out of the box, however he does have the skills to win races this season with a good crew chief and guys behind him.Just about everybody knows this kid can drive, but I will be interested to see where he is in points a...

Cash for junk cars – Tips on what to do.
2009-02-01 22:44:00 Even the notion, let alone the idea of possibly getting rid of a junk for cash doesn’t cross most people’s mind at all, normally when someone who owns a junk car and wants to get rid of it comes around, the first though and in most cases only thought is to give the car to a charity and claim the deduction on their tax return, second thought is too give the car to a teenage who can fix it up (parent’s permission if not yours first), however with the tough economy, making ends meet whether its paying the rent or mortgage, putting food on the table, buying gasoline or diesel for your daily driver or generally just paying the bills off, we all could use the extra money right now, so one of the new trends in the past year or so is getting cash for your junk car.This is the very subject that had come up last summer in my family household, at that time, we had to make a tough decision of just what to do with our 1995 Nissan Altima.
