Even the best laid plans can go awry and Cameron Hayley’s experience on Saturday afternoon in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series UNOH 175 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway was that kind of day.

Making his third start at the New Hampshire 1.058-mile short track, Hayley raced from eighth-place and ran in the top-ten for most of the event running as high as fifth.  The day was going well, after overcoming some challenges his No. 13 ThorSport Racing team faced during two earlier practice sessions, when he finished 15th and fourth.  Continue reading →

For all appearances, Matt Kenseth and Martin Truex Jr. were going to settle Sunday’s Bad Boy Off Road 300 between them.

Truex led a race-high 141-of-300 laps at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Kenseth led 105.

From a restart on lap 249 until the fifth caution of the race on lap 285, the Toyota drivers ran 1-2, with Kenseth playing defense from the lead and Truex trying every trick he knew to get past Kenseth’s No. 20 Camry. Continue reading →

There’s no statistical category for “saves” in NASCAR racing, but if there were, Joey Logano would be the clear leader at New Hampshire.

With perseverance, Logano and the No. 22 Team Penske outfit turned a potentially disastrous day into a respectable finish and gave themselves a modicum of breathing room in the Chase for NASCAR Sprint Cup standings.

After a so-so qualifying effort, Logano started 15th in Sunday’s Bad Boy Off Road 300 and quickly went backwards. On lap 114 of a long green-flag run to start the race, leader Martin Truex Jr. passed Logano to put the No. 22 Ford a lap down. Continue reading →
