Uneventful All-Star Race Leaves Newman Disappointed
For Ryan Newman and the No. 39 Haas Automation team of Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), Saturday night’s NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway didn’t live up to their expectations. With a $1 million payday on the line in the non-points event, Newman and his crew hoped to capitalize on strong runs of late at other intermediate racetracks, but it wasn’t to be. Instead, Newman struggled with a tight-handling racecar and track position issues for much of the 100-lap contest. He finished 10th to score his seventh top-15 finish in 10 career All-Star Races. “It just wasn’t our night,” said Newman, who won the 2002 All-Star Race in his rookie season in the Sprint Cup Series. “We couldn’t quite get our Haas Automation Chevy’s handling just right, and when we did, … Read entire article »

Tony Stewart Friday All-Star Race Media Visit
TONY STEWART met with members of the media at Charlotte Motor Speedway and discussed racing the All-Star versus the Coke 600, health of short track racing, driving Lewis Hamilton’s car and other topics. Full transcript: IS THERE A DIFFERENCE IN HOW YOU PUSH FOR QUALIFYING VERSUS THE RACE? “Yes. When you are doing qualifying you only have to make it last one lap where when we are in our race, you want to push it hard, but you can’t run qualifying laps because the tires won’t last if you do that. So, you have to know how hard you can push it for 35 laps or 40 laps versus one lap.” DO YOU TRY TO LEARN SOMETHING FROM THE ALL-STAR RACE FOR THE COKE … Read entire article »

Bad Boy Newman Gunning for A Million Bucks
KANNAPOLIS, N.C. – For Ryan Newman, perhaps there’s no better time than this weekend’s NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway, where the South Bend, Ind., native should embrace his new image as one of NASCAR’s “bad boys.” After being embroiled in turmoil on and off the racetrack for a couple of weeks, Newman joked with the media gathered at Dover (Del.) International Speedway this past weekend that he was “kind of new to the bad boy market” and was learning the rules of being a “bad boy” as he went. But, all joking aside, it just may take a “bad boy” to win this weekend’s Sprint All-Star Race. On Saturday night, there are no points on the line, which … Read entire article »
