It’s been a long time coming, but IZOD IndyCar Series driver Ed Carpenter picked up his first ever series win Sunday at Kentucky Speedway in dramatic fashion.
In almost the complete opposite of his luck in 2009 (when he lost to Ryan Briscoe by .0162 of a second), Carpenter edged out Dario Franchitti by .0098 of a second after having a 20-lap wheel-to-wheel battle with …
Before the Chase started, someone asked me who I thought could pose a threat to Jimmie Johnson’s bid for six straight NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championships. I replied, “Tony Stewart.” Things were just too quiet surrounding him this year. There was something eerie about it. Even without winning a race in the first 26 races of the year, you looked at his history of winning …
If you are a fan of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, you have more than likely had BOTH of the following thoughts in each game so far:
1.) “We are unbeatable.”
2.) “We cannot hang on to the ball!”

When the schedule came out last year, one of the first races that caught my eye was the street race in Baltimore. I thought to myself, “This could be a big event.”
Guess what? After the inaugural running of the Baltimore Grand Prix Sunday, there is no doubt that the race will be a marquee event on the IZOD IndyCar Series schedule for years to …
Today marks the start of the 2011-2012 NCAA football season…and if it’s going to be anything like last year, then expect fireworks.

Of course in Indiana, it’s an exciting time with the three football teams in the state: Notre Dame, …
Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Jimmie Johnson and Paul Menard? It won’t take you long to spot the outlier of this group. But, after yesterday’s 18th Running of the Brickyard 400, Menard is allowed to put himself in this exclusive group of Brickyard champions.
This race again was a typical NASCAR race at the Brickyard (minus the first ten laps and the final ten laps). There …
This weekend marks one of the best races on the MotoGP calendar…the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix from Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
Any American who loves motorcycle racing would love to go to this race. But, if they logistically cannot go, they always watch. There is so much history at that track even outside of motorcycle racing that creates the lure for people to witness …
When you look at the IZOD IndyCar Series schedule, you notice that Edmonton is slated for this upcoming weekend. You probably think that there is nothing different about it from previous years. But, wait just a minute…there is something different about this year’s event: THE TRACK!
After three years of racing on the same track layout at Edmonton City Centre Airport, the league decided to …
