The Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the 1920s, like most businesses in Indiana during the time, was rigidly segregated. Though there were no "official" rules outlining segregation at the track overt prejudices sent a powerful signal to talented African-American mechanics and drivers. In the summer of 1924, with the Ku Klux Klan in the midst of its climb to power, a group of African-American business leaders and sports promoters gathered in a small office above a local jazz club on Indiana Avenue in Indianapolis. There they planned an extravagant black autoracing event that would parallel the grandeur and pageantry of the Indy 500. Led by charismatic contractor William Rucker, the group dubbed themselves the Colored Speedway Association. They devised plans for a "Negro Racing Circuit" that spanned the Midwest, from Chicago to Cleveland, from Pittsburgh to Des Moines. The "crown jewel" of the circuit was a 100-mile event held on the dirt track at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Twenty-five of the nation's top African-American drivers and mechanics competed for more than $2,500 in cash, one of the largest purses in auto racing during the era. A sportswriter from the Chicago Defender wrote of the initial race on August 2, 1924, "Chocolate jockeys will spur their gas-snorting, rubber-shod speedway monsters to death-defying speeds in hopes of winning gold for themselves and glory for their race." The race was dubbed "the Gold & Glory Sweepstakes." * http://www.allbusiness.com/north-america/united-states-indiana/553878-1.html

Joe Gibbs Racing made their Cup Series debut at the 1992 Daytona 500. The teams first driver was Dale Jarrett.

My favorite was Cielo Garcia. i worked on the #88 team back then. She was the sweetest person you ever met and the only one that never slept around like em racer chasers. her and Jamie were the real deal and she never changed with all that money. Only girlfriend still wearing a t-shirt and said hi to everybody. When they brike up she would still come to the Charlotte race and hang out. Coolest girl around. I knew Brooke Gordon a little. She was a B. Always and to everybody.

One off a full-size pickup. It's stronger than one off a car.

Dale Sr. had several crew chiefs during his career. He won his championships with three different crew chiefs. Doug Richert(1980), Kirk Shelmerdine (1986, 1987, 1990, 1991) and Andy Petree (1993, 1994). Dale also won the 1998 Daytona 500 with Larry McReynolds.

Nothing. Old Spice and Office Depot combine to pay about $25-30 Million to Stewart-Haas Racing for sponsorship of Tony Stewart's Sprint Cup car. Home Depot pays about $20 Million to Joe Gibbs Racing for sponsorship on Joey Logano's car.

No. When the Chase for the Sprint Cup begins, all 12 drivers will have their points reset to 2,000.

Each driver in the top 10 who won a race during the season will receive an additional 3 points per win. The wild card drivers will not receive any bonus points.

Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Richard Petty both have won seven Nascar Cup Series championships. Jimmie Johnson is next with five.

It was June 1991 - car owner Junior Johnson had been suspended for four races in 1991 and his #11 was not legally eligible to race. The equipment was renumbered and listed under an alternate owner's name (Flossie Johnson, then his wife) to race.
