Part 2 of the NASCAR 101 series rolls off the grid with some helpful information about (almost) everything that happens in a NASCAR race. This episode was geared specifically for fans that are new to the sport, but also, longtime fans of racing who may not have learned some of the more technical aspects of what they are seeing. 

Below is a directory of topics that will hopefully help you find some answers to some questions you never even knew you had, or were too afraid to ask.
