    2 months ago | mlive.com | Taylor DesOrmeau

    Michigan racer Carson Hocevar was making a bold, three-wide pass for the lead in the final corner of the NASCAR Cup Series race Sunday, Feb. 23, when a caution flag ended the race early. Upon replay review, NASCAR determined Christopher Bell was the winner, as he was in the lead when the caution flew. Hocevar finished second – his best career finish – while Kyle Larson finished third in Sunday’s Atlanta Motor Speedway race.

  • NASCAR makes rule change after car went airborne at Michigan race

    Aug 24, 2024 | mlive.com | Taylor DesOrmeau

    BROOKLYN, MI – A simple spin turned into a barrel-rolling nightmare for Corey LaJoie at Michigan International Speedway earlier this week – and now, NASCAR is making a change in hopes of preventing more cars from going airborne. NASCAR is mandating teams add a right side rear-window air deflector, starting this week at Daytona International Speedway. After wind-tunnel testing, NASCAR determined this will help aerodynamics so a car is less likely to lift off the ground during a spin.

  • We measured the decibels at a Michigan NASCAR race. It’s like a Lions playoff game.

    BROOKLYN, MI – Race cars are loud. But depending where you sit, it ranges from “ear plugs might be wise” to “is this a jet engine taking off.”Or perhaps a better comparison for Detroit sports fans: Lions playoff game levels. We measured the decibels at this weekend’s races at Michigan International Speedway, taking 20 recordings in various areas. A disclaimer – this wasn’t done by an audio expert with a professional device, so take it with a grain of salt.

CMU vs. WMU is back on a Saturday this year (where it belongs). Officials are hoping it can stay on a Saturday for years to come. Story from @matthewehler: https://t.co/jY1aZl1RSK

Portage racer @CarsonHocevar was just feet away from earning his first career NASCAR Cup Series win tonight. A late crash behind him spoiled what could have been the race-winning move. https://t.co/bk2GVrVzAa
