Jimmie and Chandra Johnson have two daughters. Genevieve Marie was born on July 7, 2010 and Lydia Norriss was born on September 6, 2013.

Horse races were probably the leading spectator sport in 1800, however foot races and walking races were also popular.

No one died with Davey Allison. Red Farmer was the only person on board with Davey at the time of the crash. Mr Farmer suffered only some broken bones and minor cuts. Mr Farmer who was a former driver stated that right before the crash he had braced himself which he feels saved his life, while Davey fought to gain control of the aircraft all the way until impact.

Well, the cars need a track to race on. If it was just a dirt track, the cars' tires wouldn't get any grip. So they made tracks with concrete or asphalt pavement. NASCAR tracks also impact racing from all of the people it can hold. If it has a lot of seats, more people can come and watch it and some people might have never seen NASCAR before, so then they would become a fan if they wanted to and so on.

The last to drive the Mountain Dew car was Darrell Waltrip.

During a routine pit stop in either series, the tires are laid out and three of the four tire changers are pre-positioned before the car enters its pit stall; the fourth tire changer, whose responsibility is the rear tire on the far side of pit road from the pit wall, doesn't take his position until after the car arrives, due to a rule against having the car run over the feed hose for the impact wrench used to change the tires.Simultaneously, the four tire changers remove the tires and install the new ones. Once the tire changes are complete, the front tire changers may use manual adjusters to adjust the angle of the car's front wing.

The premier builders with top teams can exceed $100,000 easily.

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series began as the SuperTruck Series in 1995, then was renamed the Craftsman Truck Series in 1996, Mike Skinner won the 1st Championship, he has 24 wins in the series, and Ron Hornaday, the 2007 Craftsman Truck series Champion and 3 time title winner leads with most wins-33. Mike Skinner also won the 1st Truck race held at Phoenix Int'l Raceway, the Copper Classic.

No, he did not. Dale Sr. died on February 18, 2001 and Jimmie Johnson's first Cup Series race was on October 7, 2001.

The only track Jeff Gordon never won at in the Cup Series is Kentucky Speedway.

Military aircraft are flying all the time. Pilots have to fly enough hours to keep their ratings. The aircraft you see doing a fly over is not wasting taxpayer money, if they were not there they would be somewhere where that many people would not see them. SO, we as taxpayers are paying for them to fly. Thankfully we get to see them and should appreciate it. AND, it is not a waste of money!

The term is called "Banked" not slanted. The drivers use the banking to keep the car planted thru the turns via the force pushing down on the car.

They go much faster than on a flat track.

In 1970, when Dale Earnhardt was 19 years old, his neighbors let him have their 1956 Ford Victoria. His father Ralph built the engine and the friends of the family helped paint it. When they mixed the paint it accidentally came out pink. Since they did not have enough money to repaint the car, it was left that way. Dale drove the pink race car around the local dirt tracks of North Carolina.

NASCAR races usually take place every week. There is the Camping World Truck Series, which is usually on Friday nights, the Nationwide Series, on Saturday, and the Sprint cup Series on Sundays, though sometimes on Saturday nights. If a Series "takes off" the lower series takes its day.

Darrell Waltrip has won the most Nascar Cup Series races at Bristol with 12.
