| July 3rd, 2010 - NASCAR Sprint Cup: Coke Zero 400 | |
| On Saturday night, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series was in Daytona Beach to host the Coke Zero 400. The only thing hotter then the temperatures all day was Mark Martin's car, which caught fire after about a 20 car crash entering turn 3. With a brief shower that delayed the race for nearly 2 hours, the track officials got the track dry and the race was run in whole. Kevin Harvick went on to win, while my driver, Kasey Kahne, finished second. To see the full results of the race, head on over to NASCAR.com! Don't forget to check out the pre-race concert from Darius Rucker! |

| March 29th, 2010 - The 24 Hours of St. Petersburg? | |
| The 2010 Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg was postponed an extra day due to a severe storm. Towards the end of the IndyLights race, high winds, lightning and eventually heavy rain flooding most parts of the track and infield caused the race to be moved to 10am on Monday. Only the seagulls, shown left, enjoyed any part of Sunday as fans were ordered to find shelter and possibly wait out the weather to get the race in. With Monday came much better weather, eventually with sun coming out and clouds moving away. But the smile on Will Power's face was the brightest, as he went on to dominate and win on the street course. For full results of the race, visit IndyCar.com! |
