With only two races in the books, it's still too early to separate the contenders from the pretenders. But we should know a lot more after Sunday's Cup race in Vegas.

Tony Stewart was a nervous wreck figuring out how to make his track ready for the Prelude to the Dream as rain rutted Eldora Speedway. He needn't have worried. The skies cleared, his buddies had a blast and he delivered on his promise to write a $1 million check to Victory Junction Gang Camp. Oh yeah, he won, too, writes John Schwarb.

Rain visited Indianapolis Motor Speedway again, meaning Carb Day adjustments for Sunday's Indy 500 were limited to all of 11 minutes, writes John Schwarb.

It's not time to panic ... yet. A second straight day of practice for the 92nd Indy 500 was canceled because of rain, which means Fast Friday on the 2.5-mile oval will be fast and furious indeed, writes John Schwarb.

A.J. Allmendinger was a rising star in the open-wheel ranks. But when it comes to stock cars and trucks, he admits he's still a work in progress, writes John Schwarb.

The first weekend of qualifications for the Indianapolis 500 were rained out for the first time since 1983.

Rain hampered Sam Hornish Jr.'s quest to earn the Indy 500 pole. Pole Day was postponed until Sunday with portions broadcast live on ESPN2. &#8226 Chat with the pole winner Sunday
