Myth: The Fastest Car Always Wins The Race
Busted! While having a fast car is important, many other factors determine the outcome of a NASCAR race, such as pit strategy, fuel management, tire wear, driver skill, track position, and even luck with incidents or caution periods. It’s not unusual for a car that isn’t the outright fastest to win through clever strategy or by avoiding trouble.
