The Failed NASCAR Superteam Everyone Forgot

The collapse of two promising, historic teams led to a failed superteam. That team was HScott Motorsports. Started in 2013 after Turner Scott Motorsports’ shutdown, co-owner Harry Scott Jr. bought out long-time Cup Series backmarker Phoenix Racing to form the team. Moves like moving the team’s operations from Spartanburg, South Carolina, to Mooresville, North Carolina, and hiring young, promising drivers with sponsorship.

His Atlanta Performance Shows Shane van Gisbergen Continues to Improve on Ovals

Before the start of the 2026 Cup Series season, Shane van Gisbergen had a whopping seven Top 10 finishes on oval tracks across his combined NASCAR Series starts.

Zilisch and his Miserable Rookie Campaign Continues at Chicagoland with 7th DNF

Following his first career Top 10 Cup finish at Sonoma last weekend, Connor Zilisch came into Chicagoland with some momentum. Unfortunately, the momentum just didn’t last. On lap one of Sunday’s Chicagoland race, contact from the outside caused the 60 car of Ryan Preece to spin out in front of Connor, forcing him to react and sending his 88 car into the inside wall down … Continue reading Zilisch and his Miserable Rookie Campaign Continues at Chicagoland with 7th DNF
