NASCAR is expanding how many Xfinity and Truck series races Cup drivers can enter in 2026. Good idea?

Cup Series drivers with more than three years of full-time experience will be allowed to enter a maximum of 10 races in the O’Reilly Auto Parts (currently Xfinity) Series and eight in Trucks in 2026.

Corey Heim is the 2025 Craftsman Truck Series Champion.

The best man won on Friday night, but it was far from a foregone conclusion.Statistics might suggest otherwise. In winning the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway, Corey Heim swept the first and second stages, led a race-high 100 of 161 laps and took the checkered flag...

There was a non-race related incident at the Runoffs and a member of our race family needs our help. Mike West had a medical emergency at the track, fell and hit his head. It left him with a traumatic brain injury. He's been in Wisconsin hospitals since the Runoffs and in the near future he'll be ready for transfer to a facility nearer to his Memphis home. Insurance doesn't cover the air ambulance and the bills for his wife and his family to be with him in Wisconsin are piling up.

I first met Mike two years ago when I joined the Super Tour traveling circus. I quickly learned how talented he was dealing with the various challenges that pop up as a race director of a national touring series. Even more important... over the last two years I've learned Mike is top notch human being.

His family has started a Go-Fund-Me.

I always tell my non-racing friends how I started racing for the cars and I stay for the people. I share how much I love my racing family... it's time to us take care of one of our own.
Please give what you can.

Missed my stack of gear shot. But here I am at LAX once again from my redeye to the runoffs. Weather in Wisconsin looks great for the week. And I’m flying out of the Tom Bradley terminal for the first time. So this is what $1.9 billion dollars buys you!! Hopefully I’ll get a few hours of sleep.

A good day at Lake Elsinore with Cal Club Solo Autocross. I didn't finish last! So maybe some of the dust is coming off the tires. Learning more each time out... Like, who knew when you turn off traction control on a Honda it really isn't off? Some knew... but I wasn't on that list. I'll be learning how to do that before Solo Nationals.

My favorite part of the day... As I was rolling down to grid for my run group I heard an announcement that they were looking for an announcer. I couldn't help because I was about to compete... then a few minutes later... I heard a voice. After a few minutes, I thought to myself, that sure sounds like Alex. I still wasn't sure... until after one of my runs... and I heard the voice on the PA nail the pronunciation on Bielanski.

I announced for the final two groups... so if you were at Lake Elsinore today hopefully you enjoyed the Bielanski Duo on the PA!

Thanks Cal Club Solo Autocross for a great day.

One of the highights of my weekend was sharing the broadcast booth with a true trailblazer… Lyn St. James.

Her take on the state of motorsports today was spot on. Women racing today are standing on the foundation she helped build and continues to build today.

Tools... every once in a while, I'll pick up something on sale because someday I'll need it. I've had this in the box for years. It's not even a good set.

Well, today I needed it and it worked. I had a tiny screw on the base of a computer monitor stripped -- fully fuccaca'ed.

The smallest extractor brought it right out.

Today was a good tool day!

Parnelli Jones was my dad's favorite driver. That's why dad's car number was #98. Going forward I will race the #98 to honor them both.

I hope they are upstairs bench racing and swapping stories about the good old days.

One of the toughest, fastest, most determined and versatile drivers to ever grace motorsport has left us, aged 90. Rufus Parnell Jones, born in Texarkana, Ark., in 1933, died of natural causes on J…
