Early Season NASCAR Headlines

Matt Kenseth - (1) Back on top ... Reunion with spotter the key to return?
- (2) Is a championship in play? Is another Roush title imminent?

Jeff Gordon - (1) Is the winless streak destined to end? Possibly by today (Las Vegas)?
- (2) Has fatherhood mellowed the California "Kid" who has to reflect on an excellent career to date?

Jimmie Johnson - Remember "three-peat"? Where is he hanging out after two races? Probably right where he wants to be ... the "underdog" again ...

Tony Stewart - (1) This ownership thing isn't so difficult ... when you're the driver, too
- (2) Can Stewart-Haas fix the #39 team with Ryan Newman?

David Ragan - Growing pains? Accident in Nationwide race leaves some doubts for Sunday's Cup battle ...

The Brothers Busch (Kyle, Kurt) - Is the "hometown track" an advantage ... or disadvantage ... while driving in Las Vegas?

Joey Logano - Is he really "sliced bread" ... or are the expectations just unrealistically high (i.e. he's "toast" before he gets a legitimate shot)? [Casey Atwood anyone? Even Reed Sorenson fits in this camp to an extent ...]
