Keelan Harvick’s Toyota signing was just the latest in a list of #nascar next generation kids finding their footing on the racetrack. A closer look at where they stand and just how soon they might move up: @frontstretch.com frontstretch.com/2026/02/25/n...

The latest @frontstretch.com story from me … about Michael Jordan’s rising power in #nascar

After all that, @23xi.bsky.social gets all three of their full-time teams inside the top 10 at the #nascar #daytona500. Reddick: Won Herbst: Career-best 8th Wallace: 10th, led race-high 40 laps

Five of the last six #nascar #daytona500 winners have led 10 laps or less. Two of them @23xi.bsky.social ‘s Tyler Reddick today and Michael McDowell in 2021 - led only one lap. The last one. The only one that matters. Reddick and Michael Jordan are now 500 winners.

First big wreck of the #nascar #daytona500 frontstretch.com/2026/02/15/1... 17 cars involved. Notables behind the wall: Alex Bowman, Justin Allgaier. Joey Logano also has heavy damage.

17 Cars Involved in 1st 'Big One' of Daytona 500

The wrecked stemmed from Justin Allgaier's block on Denny Hamlin. The ensuing caution ended stage two.

Three years ago, what would you have said if I told you Shane Van Gisbergen was leading around the halfway point of the 2026 #daytona500? Pretty crazy. And pretty wide open race so far. 10 of the top 11 drivers right now have led at least one lap. #nascar

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

Some unexpected contenders so far in the #Daytona500 . Zane Smith wins stage one after stretching his fuel tank nearly 60 laps as most everyone else pitted. Top 10 cars never made a green-flag stop: 38-2-12-77-17. 7-60-71-48-4. 5 Fords and 5 Chevys. #NASCAR

Hey everyone! Done a bad job of posting here: looking to change that for 2026. But for BlueSky folk, there’s news! We’re going to try & utilize our @frontstretch.bsky.social for #nascar and #indycar coverage. So be sure to follow us!! Videos, links, commentary and news heading into the #daytona500.

OK! Trying to find my way back on here :) We’ll see how it goes. 4 days after the #indy500 whether Kyle Larson will do another double remains uncertain. Only one thing is clear: 5 crashes later, Larson may have bitten off more than he could chew this time. #nascar frontstretch.com/2025/05/27/k...

Kyle Larson Might Have Burned Himself Out

Was trying a second Indy 500 / Coca-Cola 600 a step too far for Kyle Larson - and should a weekend's worth of ugly results kill off a third attempt?

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 17/02/2025

Consider this: Legacy Motor Club had just one top-5 finish ALL SEASON last year among all 2 cars (and the part-time one driven by Jimmie Johnson). Two top-5 finishes by them in the #NASCAR #Daytona500. What a start.

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 17/02/2025

Zane Smith in the garage but remember - no damaged vehicle policy this year. So the No. 38 team can make repairs and get him back into the race at anytine. #NASCAR #Daytona500

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

First crash starts with Denny Hamlin but Zane Smith and Josh Berry get the worst of it. Real shame for Berry, who'd had a strong Speedweeks up to this point with the Wood Brothers. The No. 21 team won the last Daytona Cup race here last August. #NASCAR #Daytona500

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

Allmendinger the first car out (engine). He'll also be the sport's first 41st-place finisher in #NASCAR Cup since the 2015 season finale. #Daytona500

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

First person who won't win the 500: AJ Allmendinger. Mechanical problems sidelining a driver who has six top 10s in his last seven Daytona Cup starts. #NASCAR #Daytona500

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

Corey LaJoie doesn't have a full-time ride right now. He's driving for a team that has never finished better than 4th in well over 600 #NASCAR Cup starts. But he's out there, in a part-time "open" car, leading the #Daytona500. Impressive.

Tom Bowles @nascarbowles.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

#NASCAR #Daytona500 is back green some four hours after lengthy rain delays. Just over 50 miles complete and any one of 41 cars could still win it.

Carson Hocevar radio: "It's raining hard as %^&*." Cell not supposed to last long but it may be enough to force track drying again. #NASCAR #Daytona500
