Element of Speed
Element of Speed Kyle Busch takes the last win of the season at Homestead, and with it, his first Nationwide championship. It's also Busch's 30th Nationwide win - he might not be that popular, but he can sure drive a race car. Video linked below. Love him, or hate him?

Jimmie Johnson talks with NASCAR.COM's David Caraviello about his historical fourth consecutive title and what he wants his legacy to be.

Element of Speed Wow, did you guys hear this? Kimi Raikkonen is taking a 1-year sabbatical from F1 and will be racing for the World Rally Championship (WRC) in 2010. He rocked that race in August... maybe he'll give them all a run for their money next year!

Element of Speed Time for some fan love. Welcome and thanks to new fans Shawn, Jess, Angel, Nina, Robert, Chris and Bill! Bill - is that your weekend car in your profile pic? :) Awesome!
Element of Speed Wow. Is it possible Kyle Busch could be less sportsmanlike? After spinning out early in Saturday's Nationwide race, he stated the reason was not driver error, not circumstances of racing... it was because he was "driving a bucket of [expletive]". Too bad he's one start away from clinching the title next weekend. Carl E...dwards took the win, and more sparks flew in the Keselowski-Hamlin feud. Video of driver reactions to the race below. Phew. Xanax anyone?

Element of Speed Does NASCAR have too many "safety" rules governing how racers should drive (ie: restrictor plates, no bump drafting)?

Element of Speed Kyle Busch dominated the NASCAR Nationwide race at Texas Motor Speedway this weekend, leading 179 of 200 laps - his fourth consecutive Nationwide victory at that track. After a great restart on lap 187, he pushed to beat second-place finisher Casey Mears by 3.154 seconds. Busch opened up his championship lead to 272 ov...er Carl Edwards, and can clinch the championship next weekend at Phoenix with a finish of 15th or better. But the most interesting story? Busch had the opportunity to take an unprecedented trifecta win (winning all three leagues in a single weekend) if he were to win the Sprint Cup race on Sunday... but we all know that idea kinda ran outta gas... video linked below.

Kenny Wallace and Larry Mac answer fan questions about impact wrenches, Jimmie Johnson's qualifying effort and the fan who won a million dollars.
See MoreElement of Speed The last race of the MotoGP season was held in Valencia, Spain this weekend. While Rossi has already been crowned champion, riders continued to fight for the remaining positions. Casey Stoner dominated in qualifying, securing the pole. His crash in the warm-up lap, however, prevented him from starting the race. D'oh! T...his crash made it a lot easier for Dani Pedrosa to take the win on home soil. Rossi came second, and Lorenzo third. Due to Stoner's crash, Lorenzo finishes second in points. Wow. Polesitter crashes on warm-up lap. That's gotta hurt. Thanks for a great season, MotoGP - see you next year!

Dani Pedrosa doubled his race-victory tally for the season in the final race of the year with a win at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit on Sunday, as Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo completed the podium.
See MoreElement of Speed NASCAR Sprint Cup was at Texas Motor Speedway this w/e, and what a show! Race leader Kyle Busch, hoping to make history with a trifecta win (took Truck and Nationwide checkered at Texas), ran out of gas with 3 laps to go! Brother Kurt took the checkered on fumes and was pushed into victory lane. Is there a gas shortage...? Others who ran out of gas in the last seven laps: Earnhardt Jr., Reutimann and Ambrose. Chase contenders Montoya, Edwards and Gordon out in the same incident. Points leader Johnson crashed on the 3rd lap, now leading only by 73 points with two races left. Hamlin and Kenseth took 2nd and 3rd. Video highlights linked below.
