  • Stewart-Haas Racing: NASCAR Timeline
    Stewart-Haas Racing: NASCAR Timeline During a media session at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway, Tony Stewart acknowledges that he has April 25, 2008 offers from other teams to drive that include acquiring an equity stake in the organization when his contract with Joe Gibbs Racing comes to an end. Stewart and Joe Gibbs Racing officials announce that they will part ways at the end of the 2008 July 9, 2008 NASCAR Cup Series season. In a press conference at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois, Stewart announces that in 2009 he will serve as driver/owner of Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR). The team will be co-owned by Stewart July 10, 2008 and Gene Haas, founder of Oxnard, California-based Haas Automation, which owned Haas CNC Racing. The team will receive chassis, engines and technical support from Hendrick Motorsports. Stewart announces he will drive the No. 14 Chevrolet in 2009 with sponsorship from Office Depot July 25, 2008 and Old Spice. The press conference takes place at the IMS Productions studios across from Indianapolis Motor Speedway. In a press conference at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Stewart announces that Aug. 15, 2008 Ryan Newman will be his teammate at SHR and drive the No. 4 Chevrolet beginning in 2009. Stewart announces on SIRIUS’ “Tony Stewart Live” that Newman will drive the No. 39 Chevrolet instead of the No. 4. Aug. 19, 2008 Morgan-McClure Motorsports, which had used the No. 4 for several years in NASCAR competition, asked to keep the number for future use. Stewart and Newman opted for No. 39, the number Newman used to score his first United State Auto Club (USAC) victory.

    A QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS OF NASCAR FAN IDENTITY A Dissertation Submitted to The Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Erin M. Halloran Temple University January 2010 ii © By Erin M. Halloran 2010 All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT A QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS OF NASCAR FAN IDENTITY by Erin M. Halloran Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, January, 2010 Major Advisor: Dr. Michael L. Sachs The purpose of this research study was to provide a rich and thick description of what it means to be a NASCAR (National Association of Stock Car Racing) fan. Specifically, the researcher examined how NASCAR fans create their sport fan identity, how being a NASCAR fan influences their overall identity, and the social and cultural aspects associated with being a NASCAR fan. The participants consisted of 12 (10 male & 2 female) self- identified NASCAR fans in attendance at one of three races (Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, FL; Samsung/RadioShack 500 at Texas Motor Speedway in Justin, TX; or the Richmond 400 at the Richmond International Raceway (RIR) in Richmond, VA) during the 2006 NASCAR Nextel Cup Series season. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed, yielding four major iv themes. The themes that emerged included: (a) entry into NASCAR, (b) being A NASCAR Fan, (c) “ya’ll NASCAR fans ”: fan camaraderie, and (d) win on Sunday...sell on Monday. In general, the participants expressed that their entrance into the sport of NASCAR had been facilitated by close friends and family. Whether they grew up going to the racetrack with their family or were persuaded by a close friend to attend a race, the experience of attending a NASCAR Sprint Cup event propelled them on a lifelong journey following the sport.
