In a role reversal from last week’s race in Pocono, Greg Biffle held off a late charge from Jimmie Johnson to take home the victory Sunday at the Quicken Loans 400 at Michigan International Speedway.

NASCAR driver Jason Leffler died late Wednesday after an accident in a dirt car race at New Jersey's Bridgeport Speedway.

After a heartbreaking penalty last week robbed him of a win in Dover, Jimmie Johnson got his vengeance Sunday by winning the Party in the Poconos 400. Or did he? “It doesn’t make up for much,” Johnson said.  “But, we know we’re a great race team...

Kyle Larson’s horrifying crash at Daytona International Speedway in the Nationwide Series race Saturday has stunned the nation. During the crash, parts of the car and the engine flew into the grandstands and a fan was able to catch it all on video.
