AMS, RED CROSS TEAMING UP FOR ‘DRIVE FOR LIFE BLOOD DRIVE’

 

Atlanta Motor Speedway and the American Red Cross are racing to save lives and collect blood donations during the “Drive For Life Blood Drive” on September 11.

With blood supplies dangerously low, the American Red Cross is urging anyone who is able to donate blood to do so. The Drive For Life Blood Drive is an opportunity to do just that, with donation times available between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. in the Marcy Scott Media Center, located in the Speedway’s infield.

 

MONTE DUTTON - WHAT’S IT GONNA TAKE?

At the moment, it seems as if everything is getting better in NASCAR except the bottom line.

Based on my conversations around town, lots of folks still haven’t noticed. Interest in these parts still seems confined to two words, an apostrophe and a question mark.

When’s Darlington? The fact that I thought everyone knew it’s the Sunday before Labor Day is not encouraging.

KURT BUSCH WINS IN A BATTLE OF BROTHERS AT KENTUCKY

 
Redemption, that’s all Kurt Busch and his crew chief, Matt McCall, wanted after a late call to pit from the lead before the rain rolled in ruined their chance to win at Daytona. Saturday night during the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Quaker State 400 at Kentucky speedway; they got what they asked for.

 

MONTE DUTTON - HOW DID THEY ALL SURVIVE?

Some years ago, I was wandering around under the stands at Daytona International Speedway during a (probably still) Winston Cup practice. Near one of the portals sat a David Pearson Wood Brothers Mercury, all refurbished and bright.

I wouldn’t have gotten there quickly had it been a human magnet. As a practical matter, it was.

MONTE DUTTON - MIRACLES APPEAR IN THE STRANGEST PLACES

​As I wrote almost immediately in the virtual, irate town hall that is often known as Twitter, Justin Haley’s victory in the Coke Zero Sugar 400, which I find myself wanting to call the Sugar 400, was a miracle.

It’s a miiirrrracle!

I was happy to see an underdog win, but it came by the most extraordinary of circumstances since it prevented Haley and his obscure team, by virtue of fate and lack of sufficient communication from NASCAR, from finishing about 27th.

LIGHTNING AND RAIN ARE JUSTIN HALEY’S BEST FRIENDS AT DAYTONA

 

On Saturday night, no one wanted the rain to come in and disrupt the race; on Sunday night, there was one. The race had been held off a day after NASCAR seeing no chance of getting a full race in.

Justin Haley picked up his first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, with a big boost from Mother Nature. It was a bit of payback for the Xfinity racer.

 

MONTE DUTTON - SLINGSHOTS AT THE PODIUM

Hardly a day goes by without my mind at least considering briefly the decline of NASCAR, which has dominated my life as a journalist.

A Democratic presidential primary debate may seem like an odd time to ponder stock car racing, but this is what occurred to me as I watched Joe Biden blubbering in the face of Kamala Harris’s withering assault.

This country has too many sports. Politics has become one of them. That debate was a Talladega draft. I watched it, and I knew an ARCA race was on another channel from Joliet. The debate didn’t have too many commercials. Few were the opportunities to check on the race. I saw on Twitter that Ty Majeski won.
