1. In what 5 year period was the Car of Tomorrow active?
2007-2011
2008-2012
2009-2013
2006-2010
The Car of Tomorrow was a 5 year project to make a safer car for the drivers to drive in. It was mostly hated, and is widely considered a failed experiment.
2. Which driver flipped off a NASCAR official during the 2010 AAA Texas 500?
Kevin Harvick
Kurt Busch
Kyle Busch
Tony Stewart
3. Who had the most wins in the 2010 NASCAR Cup Series season?
Denny Hamlin
Tie: Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin
Jimmie Johnson
Tie: Kevin Harvick, Jimmie Johnson, Kyle Busch
Possibly the closest that Denny Hamlin has even come to legitimately winning a championship. He led the pack with 8 wins on the season, but Jimmie Johnson was more consistent that year. Even though he only scored 6 wins, he beat Denny Hamlin by 39 points.
4. Which one of these drivers did NOT have their car flip in the 3 premier NASCAR series during the 2010 season?
Mike Wallace - Nationwide Series
A.J. Allmendinger - Cup Series
Dale Earnhardt Jr. - Nationwide Series
Ron Hornaday Jr. - Truck Series
5. Which of these drivers was winless during the 2010 NASCAR Cup Series Season?
Clint Bowyer
Tony Stewart
Carl Edwards
Dale Earnhardt, Jr.
If you are a big NASCAR fan, you may have picked Clint Bowyer for this question. However, Bowyer had 2 wins that season. Stewart scored 5 wins and Edwards scored one that season.
6. NASCAR driver David Reutimann has 2 career wins. Which tracks did these wins occur at?
Chicagoland and Charlotte
Dover and Pocono
Daytona and Talladega
Daytona and Charlotte
Ruetimann won a rain-shortened 2009 Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte and won the NSCS Lifelock 400 at Chicagoland in 2010. His win at Charlotte gave him a full-time sponsorship that year from team owner Michael Waltrip, of Michael Waltrip Racing.
7. What was Brad Keselowski's penalty for tweeting during the 2012 AdvoCare 500?
$25,000 + 0 points
$50,000 + 5 points
$18,500 + 10 points
$15,000 + 0 points
Many fans were confused by this penalty, as earlier in the year he had tweeted from his car during the Daytona 500 and was celebrated.
8. Which driver filled in for Kyle Busch during the 2015 Daytona 500?
Chase Elliot
Elliot Sadler
Johnny Sauter
Matt Crafton
As Kyle Busch had a broken leg from the Xfinity race that season, his replacement for that race was the 2-time NASCAR Cup Series champion. It is currently the only Cup Series race that Crafton has ever competed in. He finished 19th after being minimally involved in a last-lap crash that involved multiple drivers, including Jeff Gordon and then-rookie Kyle Larson.
9. Which year was Mike Joy's first year being the lead broadcaster with NASCAR on FOX?
2003
2000
1998
2001
While it's only been 21 years (as of now) since Mike Joy has started being the lead broadcaster, he has called nearly 40 Daytona 500s.
10. Which of these is NOT true of driver Randy Lajoie?
Predominantly drove the number 7 car
Winless in the NASCAR Cup Series
Uncle of current NASCAR driver Corey Lajoie
2-time NASCAR Busch (now Xfinity) Series champion
I may have tricked you a bit on this one. Randy is the FATHER of driver Corey Lajoie. Not the uncle.
