Congrats to Horn, Ren, Carelli, the entire No. 33 team, Delana and Kevin Harvick, for winning both Drivers and Owners Championships and also to the Goat, J.R. and Newman for making the 2009 Truck season the best ever stats wise for KHI.

"We spend so much time sweating the small things, rather than seeing the big picture and anything is attainable when you see the whole picture."

Thank You and God Bless Fort Hood Police SGT. Kimberly Munley, for putting yourself in the line of fire and saving lives. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

I'm a avid auto racing fan, but only like the NCWTS in NASCAR, it's my favorite series these days and the series reminds me of old school NASCAR. I'm talking NASCAR 20+ years ago, like the mix of the young talent, with the wily veterans...

A simple Nascar fan from Cali trying to bring a different writing style, as well as a different perspective to our sport! I am a 25+ year fan, and have written over 750 blogs on NASCAR alone, which most of them can be found at NASCAR.com under the screen name frevr3fan. I love Saturday nights at Irwindale Speedway, which I call my second home. I’ve met alot of drivers there, Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne, David Gilliland, JJ Yeley, Jason Leffler, Ron Hornaday, Joey Logano just to name a few. I can be very opinionated at times, because of the high energy level that NASCAR brings out in its fans. I always try to write for the sport, without being biased towards any driver or team. Every driver deserves an equal chance, and what gives us fans the right to deny them that opportunity. I also lov...

Writer bio

I'm from a small town in central Pennsylvania named West Decatur, which is about 45 minutes west of Penn State University. That is where I got my Bachelor's Degree in Communication, where I specialized in writing and broadcasting. My main focus was on sports, as can be seen by my articles. I'm into football, mainly the Steelers and the Nittany Lions (obviously), basketball, baseball, and also some MMA fighting, but my real passion is motorsports.

Since I was five, I have been a fan of anything that had to do with motorsports. I am a huge fan of NASCAR. The first driver I cheered for was Davey Allison because of his exuberance and driving. He had so much ahead of him that it was tragic that it all ended so suddenly in 1993. Since then, I have jumped on the wagon of Jeff Gordon ...

"Ability May Get You To The Top, But It Takes Character To Keep You There."

Kelly's has a love of NASCAR that borders on obsession. Since July of 2001 she has been hooked on this fast paced sport and it only took 160 laps at the Daytona International Speedway and a Dale Earnhardt Jr. victory to seal her fate.

Since then she has made NASCAR a major part of her life and plans for that to continue as she earns her Bachelors Degree in Corporate Communications in hopes of becoming a journalist for the sport she loves so very much.

You can normally find her in front of the TV whenever there are cars on the track: practice, qualifying and racing. And if it's July you'll find her at the Daytona International Speedway, her home away from home, for the July Coke Zero 400, a tra...

I want a job in this business. I think I write pretty damn well, I'm knowledgeable, and other than basketball, I've pretty much got the big four (and NASCAR) covered. Are you listening, ESPN?

I get very frustrated when technology doesn't work properly, or the way it's designed to work. I apologize if it causes me to blow my top.

I believe that journalism can be an art form.

I'm generally not online much on the weekends - it's good to take a break from the computer screen and refocus on those who are close to you, and my studies in college. If you have anything urgent to get to me, my Gmail account (which can be accessed from my phone) is ...

I write mostly about NASCAR, but do venture to the other side of the bleachers on occasion, writing about the Carolina Panthers, USC Gamecocks, or what ever else I have an interest in.

While achieving status on B/R is basically a numbers game, and some play it very well, I choose quality over quantity.

Besides writing, I am also an accomplished photographer. I have taken pictures at most every race track in the south, as well as other locations around the world.

My pictures make regular appearances on B/R slide shows, in my articles, and at times, in other writers articles.

My bio picture changes from time to time.

Massive F1 and WRC fan studying History at Southampton University. I would say I am a Brawn GP fanatic! But I also like Renault and Ferrari, Toyota were my favourite WRC team, then Subaru, now well I guess it's out of Ford and Citroen!? (Ford win it as I passed my test in a Focus, and Mikko is my favourite driver). I also love Tennis, Rafael Nadal and Ana Ivanovic are my favourite players. Raffa, because he is probably the nicest guy in the world...and Ana because she is probably the best looking sportswoman! (but she is also really nice and a great player). Finally, Tottenham is my Soccer team.

I love the sport as much as I love my family, they would say I love it more. I enjoy following the NASCAR Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series as well as the NASCAR Sprint Cup series.

Important things you need to know.

Firstly, my photo is not me. It's a rusty old Dodge truck with at least two flat tyres. I am a person.

Secondly, I will up sticks for work/money/glory.

Basically if it goes fast and has an engine and wheels I like it. I follow F1, NASCAR, Indycar, Sportscars, Touring Cars, Rallying. Basically anything.

I'm a 23 year old witha Masters' Degree in English Language and with this knowledge I, of course, want to be a sports hack, although I'm fully aware I am probably destined for middle management, soup stained clip on tie and all.

I'm the writer of the weekly argument starter that is the All Motorsport Power Rankings, which also features on "Midweek Motorsport" on Radio Le Mans, and occasional visits to CBSsports.

Writer bio

I'm from New Jersey, and I've been a NASCAR fan my whole life. I really want to be a sports writer when I grow up and I've been announcing some hockey games and basketball games for the past few months.

I went to a broadcasting camp in Philly in 2004. That was a lot of fun and I learned a lot.

My goal in life is to get NASCAR's popularity in the Northeast equal to the popularity in the south east. It needs to be exposed more. We don't even mention it on our radio shows in NYC, and I really want that to change, this is the greatest sport in the world, and it deserves to be mentioned!

I will NEVER let anyone affect my point of view, on anything. I don't care, this is America, and what's the point of saying something people want to hear. I've never been one to sugar coat anything....

Writer bio

My name is Adam Flinn. I am 18 years old and I am from Oxfordshire - the heart of British Motorsport. I am studying a journalism course at Southampton Solent University, so this website has been giving me some good practice recently.

I have been following the world of Formula 1 since about 1998-ish. Being only 7 at the time, I supported Michael Schumacher because he won a lot. However, I have stuck with Ferrari for the past eleven years, and support Felipe Massa.

I watch football occasionally as well, and support Northwich Victoria (no, not Norwich), and despite being relegated into conference north, are no longer the most useless team in the country. The vics will be back!

I also occasionally play golf, snooker, darts, anything that requires very little effort.

I've been a diehard New York Yankees fan since I was eight, a loyal Randy Orton fan since I started watching wrestling in 2005, and became a Chicago Bears fan the day I found out my beloved Jay Cutler had been traded.

I'm a 23 year old from Fountain Hills, Arizona. I graduated from Northern Arizona University this past July and currently live in Scottsdale, AZ. I have loved sports my entire life and have been writing about them for various websites and blogs for the past few years.

I grew up mainly a basketball player but football has always been my favorite sport. I have been a diehard Washington Redskins fan since I was six years old and no team can match my enthusiasm for them. As far as the NBA goes, I am a Los Angeles Lakers fan all the way. I was born in Los Angeles but grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii.

When I was 10 years old, the Lakers were playing an exhibition game against the Nuggets at the University of Hawaii's stadium. A friend of mine had courtside tickets and before the game...

Writer bio

First Cup race attended: the 1963 World 600. I'm on the Lower Peninsula of Virginia. My Dad built race cars for the local tracks (he was an owner/builder, not a driver) until I was about 4 years old. (Someone once told me many years later that Dad's 1950 Mercury street car was the "fastest car on the Peninsula!" All I know for sure is that Mom usually told Dad to 'slow down.') Dad and his brother-in-law decided that the idea of "if one is good, two are better" was NOT a good idea. Dad said one of the cars always seemed to be broken. So they sold all the racing cars and Mom and Dad bought the house I lived and grew up in. How I wound up joining Dad and his buddies for the 1963 World 600 is a story in itself; but from then on I usually was part of the crew heading to t...

I was born in Brasilia, Brazil which means I have been tuning into Football and F1 since I was in my mothers womb. I'm lucky enough to have grown up watching Ayrton Senna and the Brazilian national football squad push the envelope of the sports I enjoy most. It is a special feeling.

Football and F1 asside; I enjoy most other sports very much as well. I have lived in various countries throughout my life and find that sport does a great job of bringing people with big differences together to share common experiences.

I'm looking forward to having detailed and heated (yet diplomatic) discussions on a variety of subjects within various sports with all you educated sports fans on here.

Another passion of mine is music, if you are interested, I post music that I make on www.myspac...

When I started writing for The Bleacher Report, my main goal was to see that Rex White got some RESPECT from a sport that he once dominated, but has totally been ignored by Nascar. I'm now Rex White's PR Spokesman and will try to see that Rex is inducted into the 2010 International Hall of Fame. It seems that the Old School Nascar fans are upset with what is happening in the Sprint Cup Series. Safety for the Driver's and Fan's is Nascar's first priority and I applaud that. However, the Car of Today has some issues and I hope Nascar address's them in the off season. I have been both a crew man and a spectator in Nascar's premiere series for 49 years and want to thank everyone who has taken the time to read one of my articles. I hope to write a lot more about BACK IN THE DAY. My Facebook ...

I have been an avid fan of both Juventus and Italian Football since childhood. Always followed as closely as possible, reading as much as I can about the league, its players, coaches, teams and fans.

Bleacher Report gives me a chance to indulge my passion, and write my opinion on all things Calcio.

I follow other sports, particularly Tennis, Basketball and Formula One (forza la Scuderia!), but usually confine my writing to Football as I feel at my best writing about subjects I understand.

I hope my articles engage their readers, spark debate & most importantly, are enjoyed!

One of the things that I truly love in life is tennis: the passion, the skill, the determination, the escape that watching Roger Federer hitting beautiful backhands and fiery forehands gives to me. I've always been fascinated by the world of sports journalism and the opportunities for investigation, analysis and supposition that every journalist can explore, so perhaps I feel that by joining this great network I can contribute to that in the smallest way.

If you do happen to stumble on one of my articles, try to enjoy - and try to be nice in your comments...

He is one of two featured writers at the NASCAR section of www.fanzonesports.net. On March 8, 2009, Ocker began writing for SpeedwayMedia.com.
