NASCAR will be stationed in Charlotte, NC for the next two weekends as the league's top drivers prepare to tame Charlotte Motor Speedway.  This weekend NASCAR will feature their annual All-Star event and the track will host the Coca-Cola 600 on Memorial Day weekend.  Most teams in NASCAR have their shops located in and around the Charlotte area so this event also serves as somewhat of a homecoming.

Most professional sports hold their all-star event much later in the season but NASCAR goes against the traditional all-star grain.  The Sprint Cup is just 11 races into the season and less than a third through the season, but this an all-star break nonetheless.  In light of the early season pause, lets take a moment to review the first 3 months or so of Sprint Cup racing.

The NASCAR season comes to a close this weekend at the Homestead Speedway in Miami, FL.  The Chase now focuses on the final race of 2011 with the championship coming down to just 2 drivers.  Tony Stewart and Carl Edwards are separated by just 3 points going into this weekend's Ford 400.  Both drivers have had success at the track but Carl Edwards has a clear advantage with only one finish outside of the top 10 in his Sprint Cup career.  Edwards' made first cup start, and only finish outside the top 10, at Homestead in 2006 while running part-time in the Sprint Cup.  Since then he has also managed to rack up 2 wins at the season finale.  The last race of the year should be one for the NASCAR history books.  The new points system creates more opportunities for the Sprint Cup to have such close finishes between drivers, which is good for the sport and all the great NASCAR fans.

The 2011 NASCAR season prepares for night racing at Bristol this weekend and the field for The Chase is just about set.  This is an exciting time of the season for NASCAR fans everywhere.  This Saturday the Sprint Cup will pack 43 cars into Bristol Motor Speedway to race under the lights, and in just a few weeks the NASCAR "playoffs" will open up at Chicagoland Speedway (GEICO 400) for the track's first Chase appearance.

Summer is in full force and so is the NASCAR regular season.  After 17 races the Chase picture is beginning to take shape.  Kevin Harvick established a lead early on in the season and has held on to the top spot for the most part and will essentially be able to cruise into the Chase.  With only 9 races remaining there are several teams that will be using the "make or break" mantra for the remainder of the regular season.  Currently the standings show Tony Stewart

The 2011 Irwin Tools 500 (previously Sharpie 500) will be held under the lights at Bristol Motor Speedway on the evening of August 27. Do not miss out on your opportunity to see the most talked about NASCAR race of the season.
