• USAC)Throughout the past 199 USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car races held at Eldora Speedway, there are just a few who've displayed the kind of sustained dominance on the western Ohio half-mile that Tyler Courtney has shown over the past 10 months. In the 200th series race Wednesday at the "Big E," Courtney put one in the record books as just the fourth driver to win three-straight USAC National Sprint Car features at Eldora. Jud Larson was the first to do it in 1964-65, followed by Bubby Jones in 1978-79 and Jack Hewitt, who put together two sets of back-to-back-to-back victories in 1988 and 1990-91, already putting Courtney in exclusive company in his young career.

• KWS NARC)It took eight races before the King of the West-NARC Fujitsu 410 Sprint Car Series finally revisited a race track this season. And, that’s the way it should be. Not to take anything away from points chasers who lock in to a local track, but I think the true talent of a driver and team shines through when they must adjust to new variables, or in this case, different racetracks on a weekly basis. It’s the same reason why I have played at over 450 golf courses in 29 states and four different countries during my lifetime. It never gets boring and you always have to be on top of your game, or you get your butt kicked. King of the West/NARC 7/18

But behind the façade of being content with another podium was the raging fire to win again.DIRT/World of Outlaws 7/13

However, what the quote doesn't tell you is that, more often than not, it's consistency that wins championships. If an athlete's final product of results is "boom or bust," and met with the unpredictability of highs and lows throughout the duration of the campaign, the short-term reward may pay its dividends, but the ultimate result will find you behind the one who's always in the hunt, always has a chance, and never, seemingly, has a night off.
