NASCAR modifies 2015 Rulebook: NASCAR introduced several modifications to the 2015 Sprint Cup rule book on Wednesday that involves competition, driver eligibility and safety issues. Some of the changes:
Rookie Driver Responsibilities which addresses familiarization of the NSCS by a rising competitor and allowing the team to run a fifth car for said driver, the language changed to "Car owners will be permitted to enter such fifth vehicle in non-Championship Events, provided the car owner and driver are otherwise eligible to compete in the non-Championship Event, and the only driver permitted to drive the fifth vehicle is the designated rookie driver. Non-Championship Events will not count towards the vehicle's seven permissible starts."
Inspection: NASCAR issued changes for camber and rear axle housing location specifications and tolerances along with rear wheel toe alignments (specified for different tracks), wheelbase, wheel offset (ovals and road courses), rocker panel width, main frame rail width, engine location and track bar heights for superspeedways.
Wheels and tires: Valve stem location has been moved to the inside of the rim - center only. Goodyear updated the tire codes at 21 tracks and changed the minimum cold inflation for Kentucky.(more changes at Motorsport)(6-26-2015)

WGI is No. 1 in USA Today poll

The Watkins Glen International racetrack was victorious in USA Today's online competition to decide "America's Best NASCAR Track," it has been announced. WGI was chosen out of 20 nationwide finalists. State Senator Tom O'Mara and Assemblyman Phil Palmesano issued a joint statement thanking "everyone who took a turn at the wheel and kept voting, day after day, to support WGI," which they called "one of the renowned venues in all of sports and an absolute anchor of the culture and economy of our Finger Lakes and Southern Tier regions. It was a great ride, and a great show of support for one of our own." The contest ran from May 25-June 22. NASCAR returns to WGI in August, a stop in the annual Sprint Cup Series.

Sorry for not playing today...damned washing machine timer got smoked mid cycle. Had to pull a few markers to get parts on Sunday.

El Chodo, what is this thing you call, USA Today? Upper States of America? Hmmm....;-)

A fun race to watch. Beautiful area. Glad to see a large crowd there. I’d like to see Sonoma as a chase race too but rain tires have a better chance of being approved then a road course in the chase.
