Richard Blair, from Arizona, thought he'd found a promising digital asset when he bought Lambo.com for $10,000 in 2018. Lambo is a well known nickname for a Lamborghini and so has a certain cachet. In a bid for legitimacy, after buying the domain Blair started calling himself "Lambo" online. He said it came from a word play on Lamb and had absolutely nothing to do with the well known sports car maker. He directed Lambo.com to a personal site where Road & Track says he posted, "I AM LAMBO of LAMBO.com and I will defend, defeat…...

1+ hour, 1+ min ago (246+ words) Dec 9, 2025 | 9:40 PM EST Kyle Larson faces challenges not just in NASCAR but in the sprint racing world as well. In 2025, the Hendrick Motorsports driver crashed multiple times, like in a World of Outlaws race in June when his winged vehicle flipped over. Then just last month, Larson flipped again at a USAC race after contact from a rival. However, these incidents hardly compare to the danger he faced many years ago. Before Kyle Larson laid his foundations in NASCAR, he was a golden streak in sprint cars. He faced many rivals, among whom was Tommy Tarlton. One of the instances where the two faced off was at Ocean Speedway back in 2010. The two were locked fiercely in battle until Tarlton fended off Larson in the final half of the Golden State Challenge sprint car race. "I legit hated him. Like,…...

1+ hour, 24+ min ago (577+ words) When the Next Gen car arrived in 2022, it turned the competitive order on its head. Drivers who had ruled the roost suddenly found the ground shifting under their feet, while a younger surge seized the moment. Kyle Busch landed squarely in the group hit hardest by the overhaul, a veteran whose mastery of the old formula no longer translated to the new era. The car's symmetry alone sent a shock through the garage. NASCAR stripped away the skew and right-side side force that had defined Cup handling for years, erasing the skill of leaning on the right-rear tire, a work some drivers had mastered to perfection. Mechanical grip replaced aerodynamic crutches. The ride height changed. A new splitter, a flat underbody, a rear diffuser that forced half the field to learn a new vocabulary word, and a shorter rear deck…...

"I've been able to start training on the dirt bike, but I like to keep it exciting on the dirt bike " extra exciting," Barcia said during pre-season media sessions. "We didn't have enough excitement on the new team, so I decided to go and have a little of a hiccup. "I didn't have a lot of time on the bike. I probably have a total of two weeks maybe, but the feeling I was getting obviously was good. We were on a base engine full stock, so we didn't get into getting the power for Supercross yet, but all in all, it…...

1+ hour, 35+ min ago (225+ words) Kris Wright has signed a deal that will see him competing full-time in 2026, driving the No. 81 McAnally-Hilgemann (MHR) Racing'Chevrolet. Wright parted ways with Our Motorsports in the middle of the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series season, and has since made appearances in a handful of Truck and ARCA races. He has 49 starts in the NCTS, and both of his 2025 starts came with MHR. He finished 26th at the Charlotte Roval and 11th at Talladega. The team also fields the No. 18 with Tyler Ankrum, as well as the No. 91 with Christian Eckes. Ankrum took the team all the way to the Championship 4 this past year, placing fourth in the standings after the one-race finale. "We're glad we were able to run Kris in a couple of races before the end of the season and to have him on board in 2026," team owner Bill McAnally said....

1+ hour, 36+ min ago (571+ words) NASCAR chairman and CEO Jim France testified on Tuesday, the seventh day of an antitrust trial in Charlotte, that he has not budged from his position on granting racing teams permanent charters. Front Row Motorsports and 23XI Racing filed the federal antitrust lawsuit, with the latter team co-owned by NBA legend Michael Jordan and driver Denny Hamlin. The plaintiffs have accused NASCAR of employing anti-competitive tactics to pressure teams into compliance, and France was the final witness called by their attorneys. Plaintiffs' attorney Jeffrey Kessler presented evidence that showed the likes of Joe Gibbs, Rick Hendrick, and Roger Penske had pleaded with France in the past for permanent charters for their teams, similar to other sports franchises. "They're all telling you they need permanent charters, and you said no," Kessler said, prompting France to reply, "We did not do evergreen or…...

1+ hour, 38+ min ago (500+ words) The antitrust lawsuit filed by 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports delivered a long list of grievances, from revenue-sharing inequities to NASCAR's alleged attempts to tighten its grip on the stock-car landscape. Then came last month's leaked text messages between Steve Phelps, Steve O'Donnell, and other senior executives, a reveal that pulled the curtain back on NASCAR's internal worries. Those messages showed, in plain language, that the rise of Tony Stewart's SRX Series had struck a nerve among the senior officials. And while Denny Hamlin, Michael Jordan, and Bob Jenkins continue to push for a level playing field, longtime NASCAR figure'Kenny Wallace can see why NASCAR saw SRX as a potential thorn in its side. On Chase Holden's podcast, Wallace didn't mince words as he reacted to the leaks. The texts, which date back roughly two years, exposed conflicts tied to…...

The official is asked a series of specific questions about their knowledge of something that should fall under their authority. The official then deflects with a "I don't know' or "I wasn't there' because the presumed answer would be legally disadvantageous. Or, in the name of fairness, their memories are truly adversely affected by…...

1+ hour, 45+ min ago (513+ words) CHARLOTTE, N.C. " The'legal battle between NASCAR and two race teams'has shifted from the witness stand to jury instructions, as both sides fight over how jurors will interpret antitrust law in a case that could redefine the business model of stock car racing. Three filings submitted in federal court this week reveal deep divisions over what jurors should be told before deliberations begin. The dispute comes as testimony on Monday and Tuesday highlighted the core issue driving the lawsuit: NASCAR's refusal to grant teams permanent charters and its hard-line stance during two years of revenue-sharing negotiations. In its Monday filing, NASCAR urged the court to add three supplemental instructions to the jury charge. The proposed language would emphasize that antitrust law "is not a negotiating tool for a party seeking better contract terms," and that businesses are generally free to choose their…...

2+ hour, 2+ min ago (434+ words) Red Bull's influential motorsport adviser Helmut Marko is retiring from his role at the age of 82, ending a 20-year stint in which he helped Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen develop into four-time Formula One champions. Marko was a key figure who prepared Verstappen to become the youngest driver in F1 history when he made his debut aged just 17 in 2015, and the pair have been close ever since. "Thank you, Helmut," Verstappen wrote on Instagram. "We've achieved everything we ever dreamed of together. I'm forever grateful for your belief in me." Marko was the last man standing of a top "trio that ran the team during a dominant period in its history. Team boss Christian Horner was ousted in July and design supremo Adrian Newey departed last year, moving to Aston Martin. Marko leaves after Verstappen missed out on winning a fifth…...
