Hamlin wins NASCAR Sprint Cup in Pocono, Marrant wins Modifieds at Lakeside, Nashville and Texas too

If you like stock car racing, there were lots of places to go see it over the weekend. NASCAR’s top series were all at different tracks; Texas for the Camping World Series Trucks, Nashville for the Nationwide Series, and Pocono for the Sprint Cup Series. Or for a little local flavor, Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kan., had a great show—for the second week in-a-row!

Lakeside has had a rough go of it this year. Well over half the season has already been rained-out or otherwise cancelled due to track-related issues thus far. Now that things seem to be headed in the right direction, track owner Marc Olson’s biggest challenge will be to get people back in the habit of heading to the track every Friday night. That shouldn’t be an impossible task, because once people see a show like the one this weekend, they tend to come back.
