One day after word leaked out that AJ Allmendinger will drive the #43 Best Buy Ford full-time in the Sprint Cup Series in 2010, the Richard Petty Motorsports driver was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated.
Allmendinger was pulled over at roughly 1:30 yesterday morning, and reportedly failed a field sobriety test. Sources also say that Allmendinger blew a .08 on a breathalyzer test. The limit in North Carolina is .08.
Allmendinger had this to say:
“I honestly felt fine, but I obviously should have erred more on the side of caution, particularly given what I do for a living,” Allmendinger said. “It was [...]

In sports, you often see judgment calls made by game officials according to the game’s rules. In NASCAR, it is no different. However, in other sports, fans have access to the rule books via the web, which allows them to educate themselves on the rules if they have a question about the way the game is played, a penalty, etc.
In NASCAR, taking a peek at the rule book will cost you $400.
Sure, NASCAR will let you see their points system, what their flags mean, and what different terms mean for free. That’s all fine and good for the new fans. But what [...]

Hey NASCAR fans, did you know that under ESPN’s company policy, it is illegal to suggest that Colombians like Mexican food? Now you do.
According to reports from ESPN, Bob Griese has been suspended from his college football announcing duties for one week. Griese, if you haven’t gathered by now, works for ESPN.
Griese was suspended for making the following comment during Saturday’s Ohio State/Minnesota game. An advertisement was run for Sunday’s Sprint Cup race at Martinsville. The network showed the top 5 drivers in points on the bottom of the screen. Griese’s fellow analyst asked, “Where is [Juan Pablo] Montoya?”
Griese’s response:
“He’s probably out having [...]

Every Monday, Stock Car Spin runs a feature called Stock Car Shoutouts, which gives props to drivers who you may not hear much about and who had a good run the previous week. This week is slightly different, as we include in this week’s edition a winner from the previous week, and an unexpected guest.
So without further ado, Stock Car Spin would like to give a Shoutout to:
Timothy Peters: He won Saturday’s Camping World Truck Series race at Martinsville. And while you may not have heard of Peters until this year, or perhaps even this week, the road to his [...]

If you slept in on this Sunday morning, you likely missed Jeremy Mayfield’s first 1-on-1 interview since testing positive for methamphetomines back in May.
If you missed the interview on ESPN’s Outside The Lines, you didn’t miss much. Mayfield basically told reporter Steve Delsohn that he did not ever use meth, and that he doesn’t even know what it looks like. He also said, once again, that he believes he was targeted and used as an example.
However, we did learn a few things, beginning with:
-NASCAR has no case against Mayfield. At least, not one they wanted to defend too badly on national [...]

Our buddy Jeremy Mayfield is coming back into the spotlight.
Mayfield did his first 1-on-1 interview since testing positive for methamphetomines with ESPN’s Outside the Lines. In the interview, Mayfield discussed the future of his career, if he has one, as well as the drug accusations and other topics.
The interview will air on Sunday morning, October 25, at 9:00 A.M. Eastern time.
I hope people will watch the interview and listen to what Jeremy has to say.

In these tough times, it’s good to know that there are people out there doing good things.
Jeff Gordon, as well as the members of AJ Allmendinger’s crew are some of those people.
Gordon has announced that his Jeff Gordon Foundation will be donating $2.5 million this year to a variety of causes. These include the development of the Pediatric Pulmonary Lab and Community Outreach Program at the Jeff Gordon Children’s Hospital, the establishment of the Jeff Gordon Pediatric Cancer Research Fund at Riley Hospital for Children, and funding for the Phase I Long-Term Follow-Up Program, which focuses on cancer patients.
Meanwhile, AJ Allmendinger’s [...]
