getting rid of the old Coke 200 redirect
PErsonally, since there's no other race named the Coca-Cola 200 currently on the NASCAR schedule, I think we should get rid of the old page that leads to the Nationwide Series page (I forget which one it leads to). Basically I was wondering if we could just have the Coca-Cola 200 (NCWTS) just say "Coca-Cola 200".Gaeaman787 (talk) 04:33, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
 * No, because there was a different race at one time. Its better to make it a redirect. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 05:15, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

Good Article promotion

 * Thanks for the congratulations. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 21:07, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Atlanta 200
Why is there a race on the Truck Series former races that says the Atlanta 200 which was known as the EZ-GO 200?  Wayne  Slam 19:35, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Is it a discontinued race? --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 19:47, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * It is put there. The same article has been mentioned as a former race and a current race. The Atlanta race this is year not brand new. There is no reference that says it's an inaugural race.  Wayne  Slam 19:49, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * They are two separate races from what they say. One is the spring race, and one was the fall race. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 19:52, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * But why are there two former Atlanta races if the Trucks still go to Atlanta?  Wayne  Slam 20:52, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I removed the Atlanta 200 from the previous races template. It seems that the reason, the other Atlanta article has the sponsor name is because the current race on the schedule does not have a sponsor.
 * Thanks.  Wayne  Slam 21:31, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Travis Pastrana
Shouldn't there be a section about what has Travis Pastrana done in NASCAR on his page?  Wayne  Slam 22:37, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
 * There should be, but he hasn't made his Nationwide Series debut yet has he? --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 02:43, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
 * He will make his debut at Indianapolis this upcoming weekend.  Wayne  Slam 21:34, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I would wait until after the race then before you state anything. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 22:02, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay.  Wayne  Slam 22:12, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Help needed
Hi. I hope you could help me. I updated Infobox NASCAR driver code so that image works with bare filenames like the vast majority of infoboxes. Many infoboxes still use the old style. Could you also help in stripping the filenames in this parameter? -- Magioladitis (talk) 13:59, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Hello. You should be able to do it somehow with AWB, but I don't know how to. I'll be able to help you once I fix some other problems with the infoboxes. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 14:11, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Question
With the Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series not going to Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis and Nashville Superspeedway anymore, should I move the Truck and Nationwide events to the Former section on the Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis and the Current races section or wait until the NASCAR season is finished?  Wayne  Slam 00:40, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * We don't normally merge the articles together. I would keep them as their own separate articles. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 01:48, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not talking about move as in merging, I'm talking about move as putting it in another section.  Wayne  Slam 01:07, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I still dislike the idea. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 01:39, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Driver History?
Some drivers who have raced for more than 10 seasons are getting extremely long "Cup Series career" sections. Should we make a new Article and separate the complete race by race commentary into another article like split Jeff Gordon into Jeff Gordon Cup Series career?-- intelati  talk  20:25, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Good question; I'm not really for or against it. It may help you to ask Royalbroil since he is another major editor to WP:NASCAR. The only driver who had a super-long career was Richard Petty, and he doesn't have a separate article. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 21:19, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
 * If I (we) Do split the article, what should we put on the main driver page? The season stats for each year? A brief plot of the season..., and how should we start the new article, Something like "Jeff Gordon has won the Sprint cup four times. After 19 seasons he has 85 wins..."-- intelati  talk  21:36, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
 * On the main driver's article, I would just put a short summary, maybe 3-4 paragraphs. On the sub-page, I would probably have the years broke down in to five years per section, then for the introduction have a a summary of the entire subpage. One good introduction would be when he started his career, then you could go into more detail. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 00:46, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

co-primary sponsors
Just a question, but other sites have the co-primary sponsored drivers listed with slashes instead of commas. Like Mobil 1/Office Depot. So is it a wikipedia thing that we're doing commas?Gaeaman787 (talk) 10:48, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I just read WP:SLASH, and it states, An unspaced slash may be used: where a slash occurs in a phrase widely used outside Wikipedia, and a different construction would be inaccurate, unfamiliar, or ambiguous. So maybe I should revert the changes. --  Nascar 1996 ( Talk • Contribs ) 16:23, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
