Talk all things NASCAR for @Frontstretch, @WDUNRacing. 6-time NMPA award winner, connoisseur of horsepower in many forms. Opinions are my own.

Sunday night races should not be a thing on non-holiday weekends. Especially when it's still a school night in a lot of places. #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

Endings are inevitable in #NASCAR and in life. But some of them really hurt.

An emotional pre race at the Coke 600. Kurt Busch lays down 8 flowers on the infield No. 8 for his late brother Kyle Busch. Not a dry-eye in the speedway.

Forever in our hearts.

Godspeed, racer ❤️

As a writer, I'm supposed to have words. That's what we do. But I can't find any for this.

Two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Busch has passed away at age 41.

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

@MLFootball The Patriots in Super Bowl LI, coming from down 28-3 in the 3rd to win

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

While @BeardOil62 and @CJMearsGang probably disagree, an overlooked positive in the Cup Series this weekend was that there were actually enough cars entered that someone had to go home. Outside of the Daytona 500, that's a rarity these days. #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

This was exactly what the sport has been sorely missing--a young, talented driver who isn't afraid to show real personality. I don't remember the last time the crowd was this excited about a race win. #NASCAR

[Frontstretch @Frontstretch]

Very unique celebration.

Will he go to Chili's?

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

I was out running errands and started home from across town with 33 laps to go. Thinking “oh, shit, I’, running late and with my luck the winner will be someone I didn’t already upload a photo for” Get home a solid 20 minutes later and …nope! Or, should I say, NOAPS?! #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

Well, we have a crash before they crossed the start-finish to take the green... #NASCAR

[Aaron Bearden @aaronbearden93]

One race in and it’s already refreshing to celebrate a win for what it is and not worry about playoff berths.

I won’t mention this again. It’d be overkill. Just wanted to say that early.

Alfredo DQ brings a little more Daytona Duel Drama. McLeod in pending tech on his car. #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

Some unexpected emotion from @anthonyalfredo after he races into the 500. Think it's just another race? Tears from Alfredo and @CJMearsGang say otherwise. #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

A much tamer second Duel with Anthony Alfredo racing his way in for part-time Beard Motorsports. Not a lot of moves attempted at the end. That probably won't be the case on Sunday. #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

Whoaaa that was a whole lotta block right there #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

Usually, one Daytona Duel is chaos on wheels and one is pretty tame. Will Duel 2 be uneventful or make Duel 1 look like a Sunday drive? #NASCAR

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

If you wanted a feel-good story to kick off the year, @CJMearsGang making the race for Carl Long's underdog team (and finally getting to finish on his own terms) is it. #NASCAR

[Holly Cain @_HollyCain]

Casey Mears has raced into Sunday’s #Daytona500
It will be his first start in the race since 2019 and 495th race of his NASCAR Cup career. He’s hoping to reach 500! And this one …clearly means a lot as he was emotional in tonight’s press conference!

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

Daytona is nuts. Logano opens with a Duel win, LaJoie is out of the 500, @CJMearsGang is in for the first time since 2019 thanks to last lap mayhem and Mears staying in the gas. And so begins the 2026 #NASCAR season.

@brandon_reed32 @TheSceneVault That's Bucky F****** Dent to you.

[Amy Henderson @Writer_Amy]

@TheSceneVault That's much better!
