Also, colors for the numbers are not needed. They have no purpose for the article, they just show the paint scheme which is not notable. Nascar1996 21:27, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series
While making a change to any of the information, please review the reference, or add a new one. As on Jayski.com it says that Trevor Bayne will run some 2011 races with the team, while it hasn't been officially announced that Elliott will also drive for the team. He may go to Phoenix Racing. Please, as I said, only add information if it is referenced. Nascar1996 16:09, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I need help with adding references. A report on Jayski that came out today denied that Bill was running with the #09 team. Even though Trevor Bayne is driving the car in testing, he won't be driving the #21 at all. Bill will stil be driving for the Wood Brothers in 2011, leaving Phoenix w/o a driver. Also, right below that, Brian Burns is leaving FRM. Here's the reference: http://jayski.com/cupnews.htm#20101220c
The current reference should be updated soon (which is also on Jayski). I seen that while I looked, but there would be no purpose since the current reference will be updated. Sadly, we have to wait until it does before we can change it. For referencing tips read: WP:REF. Also please sign you posts with ~~~~. Sorry for the mistake above, but I was reading from the reference. Thanks and happy editing. Nascar1996 01:39, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Your reference will eventually expire. I am trying to make it a good article with good references. Just wait untill Jayski updates the current ref. I emailed them, and they said they will update when nessesary. I reverted your edits. Nascar1996 23:18, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
They have started improving a lot. I'm really impressed how you have learned how to edit Wikipedia, and would like to ask you to join WP:NASCARhere. Please consider. Also would you like to have a user page? If you'd like I could help you with it. Thanks and happy editing. Nascar1996 20:21, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Have you been reading my edit summaries when I revert you on the 2011 season article? I have because some of what you put is unsourced by the reference, which means the information does not appear on the reference. Then, I have also had more sponsors added. Only primary sponsors are needed. They are not that notable in the article, thats why I'm asking for the primary sponsor only. The teams have associative sponsors, but they do not need to be included. I have actually wanted the entire column to be removed, but other users say its needed. On Bobby Labonte's car, they have several sponsors, but Bush's Baked Beans will be on the car the most, so its the only one that needs included. Thanks. Nascar199620:18, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ohhh ok. So even though Bush's Clorox, and Kingsford essentially share the same amount of races (7,6,6) respectively, Bush's is on the car the most. Sorry about that. And the LFR #95 does have primary sponsorship from WRL Contractors which is one of Leavine's companies. Why did you want the entire sponsor column removed? And do you know how IndyCar has a Template Box for the championship contenders for the 2011 season? Could we do the same thing for the Sprint Cup Series?Gaeaman787 (talk) 20:24, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead on the first lap to begin the race, as Edwards, who started in the second position on the grid, remained behind him. On the fourth lap, Edwards became the leader of the race. Hamlin, the points leader, before the race, spun sideways early in the race, resulting with damage to his splitter. Afterward on lap 73, Martin Truex, Jr. became the leader, but after the final pit stops Edwards was first. He maintained the lead to win the race, after leading 192 laps.
There were ten cautions and 25 lead changes among nine different drivers throughout the course of the race. It was Edwards' second win in the 2010 season, with the other being only one week earlier during the Kobalt Tools 500. Jimmie Johnson won the Drivers' Championship, 39 points ahead of Denny Hamlin. Johnson's team owner, Rick Hendrick won the Owners' Championship, and Chevrolet won the Manufacturer Championship with 261 points, 44 points ahead of Toyota. A total of 67,000 people attended the race, while 5.605 million watched it on television. (More...)
I removed it because it was clearly unreferenced for some parts. Also, it changes too often. Then about the sponsor ship column, too much statistics, and stuff. Though Wikipedia is supposed to have a lot of information, its not supposed to have a dumpload of information. Such as in a Encylcopedia book, it doesn't display every little cranny that happens. Which most of those would just have what NASCAR is, not anything else. Nascar199620:10, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NASCAR fans hoist three fingers into the air during the third lap of the 53rd running of the Daytona 500 on Sunday to honor the late Dale Earnhardt, who was killed in a crash there 10 years ago while driving the No. 3 Goodwrench Chevrolet.
The 2010 Price Chopper 400 was a NASCARSprint Cup Seriesstock car race that was held on October 3, 2010 at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas. The 300 lap race was the twenty-ninth in the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.

Greg Biffle, of the Roush Fenway Racing team, won the race, with Jimmie Johnson finishing second and Kevin Harvick third. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead on the first lap to begin the race, as Jeff Gordon, who started in the third position on the grid, remained behind him. Twenty-three laps later Jeff Gordon became the leader of the race. After the final pit stops, Paul Menard became the leader of the race, but with less than fifty laps remaining, Biffle passed him. He maintained the first position to lead a total of sixty laps, and to win his second race of the season. There were five cautions and twenty lead changes among twelve different drivers throughout the course of the race. It was Greg Biffle's second win in the 2010 season, and the sixteenth of his career.

Better source request for File:Vision-Aviation-Racing.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Vision-Aviation-Racing.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:19, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
oops, that was my fault for not checking copyright, I'm not really the best at the uploding of images, I was just out looking for better ones to put on driver pages. In the future, how should I ascertain new images from other websites?Gaeaman787 (talk) 03:53, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I second Moriori's comments. You have 2 options on images. 1) Take the picture yourself, then use a valid free license. or 2) Only upload images that you find at flickr which already have the license Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike (or just CC plus either Attribution or CC-ShareAlike). Then you need to be certain that this image was taken by the photographer. It's best that you don't upload any images now. Please ask me if you find one and I'll say if it's okay until I'm sure that you understand. You did bad when you replaced an excellent image of Landon Cassill with one that you found somewhere else. A bot deleted the image which was a copyright violation (ILLEGAL!!). So you erased an image and it ultimately wouldn't have been replaced if I wasn't watching that particular page. I've spent very much time looking for images and it hurts me personally to see them getting removed for no reason. Royalbroil04:28, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

On the 25th lap, the first caution was given, as Jeff Burton became the leader. During the caution all the teams made a pit stop . Two laps later, an accident involving several racecars prompted the second caution to be given. On lap 63, Newman became the leader. He maintained the lead until the final lap, when Denny Hamlin passed him below the yellow line (out of bounds line), as Busch passed him on the other side. Hamlin passed Newman below the yellow line giving the win to Kurt Busch. There were four cautions and 28 lead changes among ten different drivers throughout the course of the race. It was Busch's first win in the 2011 season, as well as his first win at a track that uses restrictor plates, such as Daytona International Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway.

About the note you left on Royalbroil's talk page, I agree, but you need to contact someone else, such as User:Airplaneman.

Sorry, I just noticed the message you left on my talk page; I've been mostly inactive as well :(. Is the user still causing trouble?

The 2010 Toyota/Save Mart 350 was a NASCARSprint Cup Seriesstock car race held on June 20, 2010 at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California. Contested over 110 laps, it was the sixteenth race of the 2010 Sprint Cup Series season and the first of two road course competitions on the schedule. The race was won by Jimmie Johnson, for the Hendrick Motorsports team. Robby Gordon finished second, and Kevin Harvick, who started fourth, clinched third. Conditions were sunny at the start of the race, making the track potentially slippery. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead into the first corner, but Johnson, who had started in the second position on the grid, took the lead before the first lap was over. Kahne suffered an ill-handling car during the beginning of the race, causing him to fall to seventh by the sixth lap. Seven laps before the finish, race leader Marcos Ambrose, turned his car off to try to save fuel, but he could not refire the engine and subsequently stalled. He dropped back from the lead to sixth place with seven laps remaining, allowing Kahne to finish fourth and Jeff Gordon fifth. There were eight cautions and twelve lead changes among eight different drivers throughout the course of the race, Johnson's fourth win of the season and his first ever at Infineon. The result moved him up four spots to second in the Drivers' Championship, 140 points behind of leader Kevin Harvick and one ahead of Kyle Busch. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, nine points ahead of Toyota and forty-three ahead of Dodge, with twenty races remaining in the season.

Justin Allgaier leads the field after the final caution brought out by the spun out car in the background at Road America during the 2011 Bucyrus 200 Nationwide Series race. All that Allgaier had to do was drive slowly under a caution flag around the track but he ran out of the fuel and could not complete the final lap. He only went a few hundred meters (yards) before running out of fuel in the next corner. Second place car Ron Fellows was ruled to have passed the third place car so he was given the second place finish.
Pole position driver Kurt Busch led from the start ahead of Jeff Gordon who started second on the grid. The crowd stood in silence during lap 3 to mark the tenth anniversary of the death of Dale Earnhardt. On lap 30 a multiple accident occurred involving 17 drivers. On lap 197 the fifteenth caution was flagged causing a green-white-checker finish. David Ragan was leading at the time but was black flagged for moving into the lower lane before the finish line. Immediately after the restart, a sixteenth caution was given. Bayne took the lead on the lap 206 restart and maintained it to win his first NASCAR race and Wood Brothers' fifth Daytona 500.
There were 16 cautions and 74 lead changes among 22 different drivers throughout. Following the race, Edwards led the Drivers' Championship with 42 points, one ahead of Gilliland and Bobby Labonte. Ford led the Manufacturer Championship with nine points, three ahead of Toyota and five ahead of Dodge. A total of 182,000 people attended the race, while 15.6 million watched it on television.

Tim Richmond (June 7, 1955 - August 13, 1989) was an Americanrace car driver from Ashland, Ohio. He competed in IndyCar racing before transferring to NASCAR's Winston Cup Series (now Sprint Cup Series). Richmond was the first driver to change from open wheel racing to NASCAR stock cars, which has since become an industry trend. He won the 1980 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year award and had 13 victories during eight NASCAR seasons. Richmond achieved his top NASCAR season in 1986 when he finished third in points. He won seven races that season, more than any other driver on the tour. When he missed the season-opening Daytona 500 in February 1987, media reported that he had pneumonia. The infection most likely resulted from his compromised immune system, which had been weakened by AIDS. The disease would drastically shorten his life. Despite the state of his health, Richmond competed in eight races in 1987, winning two events and one pole position before his final race in August of that year. He attempted a comeback in 1988 before NASCAR banned him for testing positive for a banned substance. Richmond grew up in a wealthy family and lived a debauched lifestyle, earning him the nickname "Hollywood". In describing Richmond's influence in the sport of racing, Lowe's Motor Speedway president Humpy Wheeler said: "We've never had a race driver like Tim in stock car racing. He was almost a James Dean-like character." When Richmond was cast for a bit part in the 1983 movie Stroker Ace, "He fell right in with the group working on the film," said director Hal Needham. Cole Trickle, the main character in the movie Days of Thunder, played by Tom Cruise, was loosely based on Richmond and his interaction with Harry Hyde and Rick Hendrick.

Pole position driver Jimmie Johnson maintained his lead on the first lap to begin the race, as A. J. Allmendinger, who started in the second position on the grid, remained behind him. Fourteen laps later Allmendinger became the leader of the race. Chase for the Sprint Cup participants Clint Bowyer, and Tony Stewart were in the top ten for most of the race, but in the closing laps all of them suffered spins or other problems. Afterward, Johnson became the leader of the race, once Allmendinger pitted because of a loose wheel. Johnson maintained the first position to lead the most laps of 191, and to win his sixth race of the season.
There were four cautions and eighteen lead changes among ten different drivers throughout the course of the race. It was Jimmie Johnson's sixth win in the 2010 season, and the fifty-third of his career. The result moved Johnson up to second in the Drivers' Championship, thirty-five points behind Denny Hamlin and ten ahead of Kyle Busch. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, thirty-five ahead of Toyota and eighty ahead of Ford, with eight races remaining in the season. A total of 88,000 people attended the race, while 3.966 million watched it on television.
Oh boy, that looks a stickler. NASCAR's entry list currently has Cobb listed in the #10 Ford for 'Dega, while Patrick Sheltra is in the #99 in a Dodge, under sponsor "Chase Mattioli Racing". Now, I haven't caught up on the other entry lists of late, but if this is definitely the first race for the #99 as a Dodge, we could incorporate it together. But I think the idea with the most common sense at present is to have them listed separately. That way, it'll provide less confusion for other readers of the article, yeah! Craig(talk)12:10, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Put it this way, I've never seen so many changes of numbers between teams in a single season in any category of racing! There's definitely no way to incorporate the three teams together with the numbers, so we can rule that out. Easiest way to do it, is as you say, to split them up. Won't confuse any readers that way.

The Unocal-Darlington Record Club was a club in the NASCARGrand National and Winston Cup Series from 1959 to about 2001, based at Darlington Raceway. Membership was achieved based on setting qualifying records during time trials for the annual Southern 500 held on Labor Day weekend. During its heyday, it was considered one of the most prestigious and exclusive clubs in motorsports.The club was sponsored by longtime NASCAR sponsor Unocal/Union 76. Previously it was sponsored by Pure Oil. At some time after the 2001 season, the club was quietly retired. The club ended permanently when Unocal left the sport in 2003, and the Southern 500 was removed from the schedule after 2004.The original eight charter members were selected in 1959: Dick Joslin (Dodge), Marvin Panch (Ford), Joe Caspolich (Oldsmobile), Bob Burdick (Thuderbird), Speedy Thompson (Chevrolet), Richard Petty (Plymouth), Elmo Langley (Buick), and Fireball Roberts (Pontiac). Roberts was selected as the first president; Former Darlington Raceway president Bob Colvin contributed in creating the club.

The addition of car number colo(u)rs is not a new experience for me, so it's always nice for other users to waste so much space with them. All have been reverted to my last edits on the pages, which should be before they were introduced. Craig(talk)15:18, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The 2010 Ford 400 was a NASCARSprint Cup Seriesstock car race that was held on November 21, 2010 at Homestead Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. The 267 lap race was the thirty-sixth in the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, as well as the final race in the ten-race Chase for the Sprint Cup, which ends the season. The race was won by Carl Edwards for the Roush Fenway Racing team. Jimmie Johnson finished second, and Kevin Harvick clinched third. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead on the first lap of the race. Edwards started in the second position on the grid, and became the leader of the race on the fourth lap. Shortly after a restart on lap 22, championship leader Denny Hamlin spun sideways, resulting with damage to his splitter. Martin Truex, Jr. took the lead on lap 73, but after the final pit stops Edwards was first. He maintained the lead to win the race, having led it for 192 laps. A total of 67,000 people attended the race, while 5.605 million watched it on television. There were ten cautions in the race, as well as twenty-five lead changes among nine different drivers. Edwards' victory was his second win in the 2010 season, with the first coming the previous week at the Kobalt Tools 500. Jimmie Johnson won the Drivers' Championship, 39 points ahead of Denny Hamlin. Johnson's team owner Rick Hendrick won the Owners' Championship. Chevrolet won the Manufacturer Championship with 261 points, 44 points ahead of Toyota. (Read more...)
The way you're suggesting seems to tie into line with what was listed on the 2011 Sprint Cup page, and now that I'm looking at it, that does seem to be a cleaner way of doing the particular driver's races if they are not doing a complete schedule of races. So for instance, take the KHI #2 truck from 2011:
It can either be the number of the races, or the track that the races were at. Perhaps bring it up at the WikiProject, because it may be a change that could be universally adopted across the three series, rather than having the three series with three potential article setups...in regards to the Gaughan/Bodine/Mears situation, I'm not too sure, although on Jayski, it does say that the remaining driver for the #2 truck would be announced at a later date. Yeah, Bodine and Papis out of rides with the Germain closure...Papis may end up at RCR, but I can't see it personally...Bodine would be a grab for any team, but not many have placed their hands for 2012, what with the season-opener being a week later. Again, not too sure. Craig(talk)23:53, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there. We were waiting really to see what reliable sources we going to do with regards to splitting or keeping it as it is. However, I've just found the team profile on formula1.com has been updated, suggesting they will consider them the same team. How a team called Lotus can be considered the same as a team called Renault from the 1970s is rather difficult to understand, but hey. Anyway, there's no point in moving it to 'Lotus Renault GP' as you tried to do because that was their 2011 name - they will be 'Lotus F1 Team' in 2012. And also, the team has not rebranded itself yet like Team Lotus/Caterham did last week - so if the article is going to just going to be renamed that cannot be done just yet. But you are more than welcome to discuss the whole situation at WT:F1 in the meantime. Thanks - mspete9317:35, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The 2011 Subway Fresh Fit 500 was a NASCARSprint Cup Seriesstock car race held on February 27, 2011 at Phoenix International Raceway in Avondale, Arizona. Contested over 312 laps, it was the second race of the 2011 season and was won by Jeff Gordon for Hendrick Motorsports from Kyle Busch in second and Jimmie Johnson third. Carl Edwards led the first lap from pole position ahead of Kurt Busch who started second on the grid. The race was caution free until lap 29 (debris), and then 48 laps later a multiple crash occurred involving 13 drivers. Later there were several lead changes, and another four cautions. With nine laps remaining, Gordon took the lead from Kyle Busch to win his first race of the season, his first in more than 60 races. There were eight cautions and 29 lead changes among 12 different drivers during the race. Gordon's win moved him to sixth position in the drivers' championship, 15 points behind leader Kyle Busch and one ahead of Bobby Labonte in seventh.

Hey Gaeaman787, just so you know, I've removed the IP Block Exemption that I placed on your account some time ago.

Team Lotus/Caterham
It wasn't me that split them. I was just tidying up a bodged move by another editor. User:Prisonermonkeys decided without asking anyone that Marussia and Virgin needed seperate pages, their reasoning being that the constructor name has changed and therefore their results will start from zero (though they didn't have any evidence for this). I said that if we are going to use that logic then Caterham and Team Lotus need splitting as that was also a change of name. Prisonermonkeys then went ahead and created new articles for Lotus and Caterham. Personally I certainly think that the Lotus team of 2012 has absolutely nothing to do with the Renault of the 1970s, so there is no way they can be in the same article. - mspete9316:38, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Marussia/Caterham/Lotus
When a team changes its name, it is considered to be a new constructor. Any results that it scores are credits to its new name. There has never been a case where the FIA has considered a new team to be a "continuation" of an old one - not even when Jordan became Midland, then Spyker and then Force India - and there is no evidence that they are about to begin doing so now. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 22:39, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sahara Force India is not considered to be a new team. Sahara bought into the team, but they are only the title sponsor - the team never applied to change their name. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 22:13, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Each of those teams is a new constructor. They changed their cosntructor name. When the television rights are paid out at the end of the year, the historical multiplier will no longer be applied to them because of the change. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 23:30, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Technically, yes - but the results were credited to Renault, not Lotus. In the end-of-race results, Petrov and Heidfeld/Senna were listed as having driven a Renault. It is the constructor that the FIA is concerned with, not a title sponsor. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 01:04, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The raceway was originally constructed with a 2.5 miles (4.0 km) road course that ran both inside and outside of the main tri-oval. In 1991 the track was reconfigured with the current 1.51 miles (2.43 km) interior layout. PIR has an estimated grandstand seating capacity of around 67,000. Lights were installed around the track in 2004 following the addition of a second annual NASCAR race weekend.
Phoenix International Raceway is home to two annual NASCAR race weekends, one of 13 facilities on the NASCAR schedule to host more than one race weekend a year. The track is both the first and last stop on the West Coast, as well as the second and second-to-last track on the schedule. (Read more...)

The 2010 Auto Club 500 was a NASCARSprint Cup Seriesstock car race held on February 21, 2010 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. Contested over 250 laps, it was the second race of the 2010 Sprint Cup Series season. The race was won by Jimmie Johnson for the Hendrick Motorsports team. Kevin Harvick finished second, and Jeff Burton, who started fourteenth, clinched third. Pole position driver Jamie McMurray maintained his lead into the first corner, but Juan Pablo Montoya, who had started in the second position on the grid, took the lead before the first lap was over. Afterward, Johnson became the leader, and would eventually lead to the race high of 101 laps. During the final pit stops, Johnson was on pit lane as the caution flag came out. Burton, who led the race during Johnson's pit stop, did not pass Johnson to put him a lap down. Therefore, Johnson retained the first position upon the completion of his pit stop. On the final lap, Harvick was gaining on Johnson, but Johnson maintained his position to win his first race of the season. There were six caution flags and twenty-eight lead changes among fourteen different drivers throughout the course of the race. The result moved Johnson up twenty-three spots to tenth in the Drivers' Championship, 78 points behind of leader Kevin Harvick and one ahead of Kyle Busch. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, eight points points ahead of Toyota and nine ahead of Ford, with thirty-four races remaining in the season. (Read more...)
I deleted your recent edits on the NASCAR drivers page because I've previously been notified by NASCAR moderators about limiting the amount of color used on the page, such as you color-coating Timmy Hill's name to show he's a ROY contender. Also they made a change a few months ago wanting to show only the driver's home country flag, not their state flag. Sorry if it seemed I didn't want you "messing with my page," as I've been managing the page for the last year. I was just trying to keep it up to the standards that the mods want. Thanks anyways for trying to help out. Feel free to continue editing that and all other NASCAR pages. - JakePlummerFan (Talk) 21:36, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there; just for future reference but whenever you're inputting a range of numbers, say 4–16, can you use an en dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)? Complies with WP:DASH that way. Cheers! Craig(talk)10:41, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Danica in Cup - I have yet to find a reliable source for the change (and given NASCAR's secrecy with its rulebook, there might not be one), but I've seen it said enough places that I'm confident it's true (just not, as mentioned, citable yet) - when they changed the rules to "pick a series for points", they also changed it so that a driver who is not running for points in a series doesn't have their starts in that series count against their ROTY eligibility in that series - hence Patrick is eligible for Cup ROTY in 2013, Trevor Bayne is still elgible, and with Ryan Blaney switching from N'wide to Truck points starting last weekend he should still be eligible for N'wide ROTY next year. (Doesn't explain why Pastrana's thrown away his ROTY eligibility tho, oh well...) - The BushrangerOne ping only01:53, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Found this which says NASCAR was considering changing the rule, still looking for RS saying they did (hoping it's not one of those 'everybody knows it' things). And an explicit statement Bayne was exempted: [1]. - The BushrangerOne ping only01:57, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
And found it [2]Bayne is still eligible for the Rookie of the Year award. Why? He has yet to declare for Sprint Cup points for a full season, meaning that his 18-race run in 2011 did not count against his eligibility, nor will his schedule in the series in 2012. - The BushrangerOne ping only02:01, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Why is this wackiness not noted on the Rookie page? I understand Stenhouse being eligible for ROTY for 2013 since he's only made two Cup starts. Bayne ran rookie stripes on his #21 in 2011 because he was inexperienced at those tracks he ran at for the 18 race schedule with the Wood Brothers, but he did not earn any points towards the ROTY crown since he was ineligible for points in the series. So this also applies to Patrick, who despite making more than the maximum 7 starts for eligible Cup drivers (in her case 10), is ineligible for points in Cup. Though she will be eligible for points next year. And when did Ryan Blaney switch to Truck points? Grrr more plotholes -_-. Now a question that's been bugging me is if Parker Kligerman was released from Penske's development program or if he's still a part of it...and if Ryan Blaney's been picked up by Penske. Oh...I forgot Pastrana's making that 8th start with RFR at Richmond. Silly Season I thought was going to be a simple Kenseth to Gibbs, Logano to Penske, Kurt Busch ends up at 2nd Furniture Row car...but it brings up more plotholes in the lower series...ugghhhh. Since Logano's been doing most of the N'Wide starts for Gibbs, and he'll likely be splitting the #22 with BK, Blaney, and JV, where does that leave the #18 and #20? The factor in this will be Sam and Alliance Truck Parts. I remember Sam (or someone else stating in a interview that he and ATP wanted to go Cup Racing, so the third car is a possibility for Penske. Btw, I added a article tag for the #10 car's SHR history, since the car officially belongs to Baldwin no matter if DP, Reuti, or Yeley is driving the car.Gaeaman787 (talk) 02:15, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've just added it to the rookie page, as best I can with the sources I have anyway. And yes, it appears it applies to all drivers in all series. As for Blaney's switch to Truck points, that came and went in the night, as it were - nothing mentioned in the news, at all. Simply a line in the race report from Atlanta that Blaney received 33 points for his 11th place finish, not 0 as he had the previous race at Bristol for 6th. This is actually Pastrana's 9th start at Richmond, BTW - 8th was Atlanta. As for Kligerman, I've seen conflicting reports - some say he was released completely from Penske's program (which would make sense as he's now driving for the Dark Side - er, Toyota), others that he was just cut from BHR because of lack of sponsorship with Dodge/Ram going away next year, others saying it was Kligerman's call to leave... Elliott Sadler's supposed to be running a N'wide car for Gibbs next year according to Jayski's. Sam's up in the air aside from "with Penske". And as for Danica, while in the Daytona 500 it was pretty well stated that the 10 was always a TBR car, it was explicitly stated during the SPEED Channel qualifying broadcast at first Michigan (I think it was) that the #10 is a pure SHR operation when Danica runs it, just with Baldwin's name on the entry blank for the points. - The BushrangerOne ping only02:25, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
facepalm* If I'm Sadler, I'd stay with Childress, and just hand the 18 and 20 to Ryan Truex and Darrell Wallace. The cup series is so simple, but this also has ramifications for the lower series -_-. Did you note that RB switched points after Bristol on the 2012 Truck page?Gaeaman787 (talk) 03:03, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, that hadn't even occured to me, but it looks like somebody else beat me to it. Completely agree with regards to JGR's Busch cars, but it's already confirmed straight from the horse's mouth (Childress') that Sadler won't be back in the 2 next year for certain, with JGR being the grapevine's destination for him. I think the main problem JGR has is the same reason Kyle had to let Brian Ickler go from his Truck team - sponsors don't want to fund rookies... - The BushrangerOne ping only03:21, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Pole position driver Brad Keselowski maintained his lead in the first lap, but in the second lap Tony Stewart pulled ahead. Chase for the Sprint Cup participants Jimmie Johnson, Kurt Busch, and Hamlin were in the top ten for most of the race, but in the closing laps all of them suffered spins or other problems. Hamlin was the only one to recover and finish in the top five. With two laps remaining, Tony Stewart was leading the race when he ran out of fuel, giving the lead to Bowyer, who also led the most laps in the race with 176. There were eight cautions and twenty-three lead changes among eight different drivers during the race.
The race was Clint Bowyer's first win in the 2010 season, and the third of his career. The result advanced Bowyer to second in the Drivers' Championship, thirty-five points behind Hamlin and ten ahead of Kevin Harvick, but because of a penalty three days after the race, he fell to twelfth in the standings. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, thirty-two points ahead of Toyota and seventy-four ahead of Ford, with nine races remaining in the season. A total of 95,000 people attended the race, while 3.68 million watched it on television. (Read more...)

Tim Richmond (June 7, 1955 – August 13, 1989) was an Americanrace car driver from Ashland, Ohio. He competed in IndyCar racing before transferring to NASCAR's Winston Cup Series (now Sprint Cup Series). Richmond was one of the first drivers to change from open wheel racing to NASCAR stock cars full-time, which has since become an industry trend. He won the 1980 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year award and had 13 victories during eight NASCAR seasons.
Richmond achieved his top NASCAR season in 1986 when he finished third in points. He won seven races that season, more than any other driver on the tour. When he missed the season-opening Daytona 500 in February 1987, media reported that he had pneumonia. The infection most likely resulted from his compromised immune system, which was weakened by AIDS. The disease drastically shortened his life. Despite the state of his health, Richmond competed in eight races in 1987, winning two events and one pole position before his final race in August of that year. He attempted a comeback in 1988 before NASCAR banned him for testing positive for a banned substance; after NASCAR insisted on access to his entire medical record before reinstating him, Richmond withdrew from racing. NASCAR later stated their original test was inaccurate.
Richmond grew up in a wealthy family and lived a freewheeling lifestyle, earning him the nickname "Hollywood". In describing Richmond's influence in racing, Charlotte Motor Speedway president Humpy Wheeler said: "We've never had a race driver like Tim in stock car racing. He was almost a James Dean-like character." When Richmond was cast for a bit part in the 1983 movie Stroker Ace, "He fell right in with the group working on the film," said director Hal Needham. Cole Trickle, the main character in the movie Days of Thunder, played by Tom Cruise, was loosely based on Richmond and his interaction with Harry Hyde and Rick Hendrick. (Read more...)

Daytona International Speedway is a race track in Daytona Beach, Florida, United States. Since opening in 1959, it has been the home of the Daytona 500, the most prestigious race in NASCAR. In addition to NASCAR, the track also hosts races of ARCA, AMA Superbike, Grand-Am and Motocross. The track features multiple layouts including the primary 2.5 miles (4.0 km) high speed tri-oval, a 3.56 miles (5.73 km) sports car course, a 2.95 miles (4.75 km) motorcycle course, and a .25 miles (0.40 km) karting and motorcycle flat-track. The track's 180-acre (73 ha) infield includes the 29-acre (12 ha) Lake Lloyd, which has hosted powerboat racing. The speedway is owned and operated by International Speedway Corporation. The track was built in 1958 by NASCAR founder William France Sr. to host racing that was being held at the former Daytona Beach Road Course. His banked design permitted higher speeds and gave fans a better view of the cars. Lights were installed around the track in 1998, and today it is the third largest single lit outdoor sports facility. The speedway has been renovated three times, with the infield renovated in 2004, and the track repaved in 1978 and 2010. (Read more...)

Would you please inform this user in any other venue you may know him in that Wikipedia is no longer using the formatting that he tried to force on it just recently? No more separate pages for the rangers, villains, and zords per season. He never responds to talk page messages anymore.—Ryulong (琉竜) 19:05, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, he's been trying to do that on the RangerWiki for about a year now. He's more into fanfiction. He has very repetitive behavior and tries to use his own canonical fanfiction. If he gets banned then he'll get a username like a comic book hero or a previous Red Ranger. And he won't respond to your comments either, he'll only reply if he's threatened with a ban and say that he's sorry, but he'll come back and do it again. So I'd suggest reporting him if you feel as though its warranted, because he won't stop.Gaeaman787 (talk) 00:29, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've moved your response here because I like keeping things on one page.

The No. 90 Heilig Meyers Dick TrickleNASCAR Winston Cup car being worked on in the pits at Road America. The car had a different owner and was being used in a Formula Libre type event featuring Mid American Stock Cars. Trickle raced in this car somewhere between 1996 and 1998.
Richard "Dick" Trickle (October 27, 1941 – May 16, 2013) was an American race car driver. He raced for decades around the short tracks of Wisconsin, winning many championships along the way. Trickle competed in the ASA, ARTGO, ARCA, All Pro, IMCA, NASCAR, and USAC. In more than an estimated 2,200 races, Trickle logged one million laps and is believed to have won over 1,200 feature races. He was billed as the winningest short track driver in history. Trickle's career highlights include racing to 67 wins in 1972, winning seven ARTGO Championships in nine years between 1979 to 1987, winning back to back ASA AC-Delco Challenge championships in 1984 and 1985, the 1968 USAC Stock Car rookie of the year, and winning the 1989 NASCAR Rookie of the Year award in what was then called the Winston Cup (now Sprint Cup).

Conditions were sunny at the start of the race, making the track potentially slippery. Pole position driver Kasey Kahne maintained his lead into the first corner, but Johnson, who had started in the second position on the grid, took the lead before the first lap was over. Kahne suffered an ill-handling car during the beginning of the race, causing him to fall to seventh by the sixth lap. Seven laps before the finish, race leader Marcos Ambrose, turned his car off to try to save fuel, but he could not refire the engine and subsequently stalled. He dropped back from the lead to sixth place with seven laps remaining, allowing Kahne to finish fourth and Jeff Gordon fifth.
There were eight cautions and twelve lead changes among eight different drivers throughout the course of the race, Johnson's fourth win of the season and his first ever at Infineon. The result moved him up four spots to second in the Drivers' Championship, 140 points behind of leader Kevin Harvick and one ahead of Kyle Busch. Chevrolet maintained its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship, nine points ahead of Toyota and forty-three ahead of Dodge, with twenty races remaining in the season. (Read more...)

Tim Richmond (June 7, 1955 - August 13, 1989) was an Americanrace car driver from Ashland, Ohio. He competed in IndyCar racing before transferring to NASCAR's Winston Cup Series (now Sprint Cup Series). Richmond was the first driver to change from open wheel racing to NASCAR stock cars, which has since become an industry trend. He won the 1980 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year award and had 13 victories during eight NASCAR seasons.
Richmond achieved his top NASCAR season in 1986 when he finished third in points. He won seven races that season, more than any other driver on the tour. When he missed the season-opening Daytona 500 in February 1987, media reported that he had pneumonia. The infection most likely resulted from his compromised immune system, which had been weakened by AIDS. The disease would drastically shorten his life. Despite the state of his health, Richmond competed in eight races in 1987, winning two events and one pole position before his final race in August of that year. He attempted a comeback in 1988 before NASCAR banned him for testing positive for a banned substance.
Richmond grew up in a wealthy family and lived a debauched lifestyle, earning him the nickname "Hollywood". In describing Richmond's influence in the sport of racing, Lowe's Motor Speedway president Humpy Wheeler said: "We've never had a race driver like Tim in stock car racing. He was almost a James Dean-like character." When Richmond was cast for a bit part in the 1983 movie Stroker Ace, "He fell right in with the group working on the film," said director Hal Needham. Cole Trickle, the main character in the movie Days of Thunder, played by Tom Cruise, was loosely based on Richmond and his interaction with Harry Hyde and Rick Hendrick. (Read more...)

The page should be simple to read. If we write the full season lineups, it would be a mess. Take a look at other pages: F1, WEC, ELMS, 24H Series, Blancpain. We have never anticipated the entries for the other rounds. --62.173.162.187 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.173.162.187 (talk) 12:13, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
PWC/Sprint-X
Unfortunately, I don't have the time anymore to update points standings for PWC and Sprint-X. As much as I enjoy editing championship standings on multiple pages, PWC/Sprint-X simply take up too much time for me these days, as I'm also busy with Blancpain GT (Endurance/Sprint/Asia/Sports Club), all GT4 series, lower NASCAR series and more. I hope somebody else picks it up. Because you're the regular editor of the Entry lists, I just wanted to let you know. Vettelisthebest (talk) 8:29, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Table reflects values at 7:00 PM Eastern on April 26. Monthly goal: Improve all top-importance articles to start or better. It is important to pay close attention to the articles that we as a project value the most. Please remember to add reliable sources in all contributions!
Table reflects values at 8:00 PM Eastern on July 30. Monthly goal: Find the backstory. All too often, pages about drivers, teams or tracks have only content about NASCAR's top three national series. To improve article quality, information about other series or events that those drivers, teams and tracks are involved in should be added, backed up by reliable sources.
Shawna Robinson (born November 30, 1964) is an American retired professional stock car racing driver. She was a competitor in all three of NASCAR's national touring series, as well as the ARCA Bondo/Mar-Hyde Series and the Charlotte/Daytona Dash Series. Robinson is one of 16 women to participate in the NASCAR Cup Series, and one of three females to race in the sports' premier event, the Daytona 500.(Read more...)
Table reflects values at 7:00 PM Eastern on August 31. Monthly goal: Focus on the sources. In the thick of Silly Season, it is easy for random people to make a website, perpetuate a rumor, and have that be picked up here. Two sites that have proven to be big on rumors before, and sometimes eating it in a big way, are Beyond the Flag and TobyChristie.com. Please use other sources, such as NASCAR.com, Jayski.com, or team/driver releases as citations in articles. Additionally, there has been a decline in the quality of the new work being generated by the project. New content, related to silly season or not, should always be reliably sourced so we can avoid the ugly {{refimprove}} tags at the top of articles.
Table reflects values at 3:00 PM Eastern on September 30. Monthly goal: Improve our most-read content. There are 500 pages listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject NASCAR/Popular pages. This content is our most widely-read content and should be constantly worked on to ensure that our project is producing the highest quality content possible.
Table reflects values at 8:00 PM Eastern on October 31. Monthly goal: Tie a bow on the year. As the three national series season end in November, there should be time dedicated to doing season-ending copyedits on season series pages, updates on driver and team pages, and updating series pages as well as List of NASCAR drivers.
