2026 NASCAR Daytona: Drivers, Cars, and Predictions
The Daytona 500 on February 15, 2026 I’ll be spending the next 9 or 10 months immersed in the data created by the magnificent NASCAR drivers. Today is the Daytona 500, which starts in a couple of hours (as I’m writing this). Each season, I do my best to learn the drivers, car numbers, and color schemes for each car. I also have to learn which team each driver represents, and which teams drive…
Behind the Scenes of GM's F1 Team: Data and Innovation
Introduction I have a confession to make. I love my job because #IWorkForGM. General Motors (GM) has been the best company I have ever worked for, and I hope it is the last company I work for.

In the tangled web of my brain, the…

Quantifying How NASCAR Races Have Ended Over Time
NASCAR is a sport that has changed significantly over time. Using 75 years of data, I examined how race endings have changed. I compared these results to my childhood views on NASCAR.
Introduction In the podcast embedded in my previous article, I mentioned some of the changes I perceived in NASCAR over the past few decades. I surmised that NASCAR has transformed from a demolition derby-type event to a highly-engineered, much safer sport full of parity and excitement. In this short article, I will show some data that validates my observations. Before I leave the topic of that…

Of course, this is a high-level overview of my work rather than a detailed look into the data science and computational methods I’ve developed to do certain things with NASCAR data. To get an idea of what this discussion sounds like, you can…

Introduction Today’s NASCAR organization looks completely different than the one I watched as a kid growing up in Chicago in the 1970s. Back then, watching a NASCAR race was a little like watching a demolition derby. It seemed to me that the crashes created the allure within the races. Continue reading Untitled

Introduction I like time lapse photography. I typically use this technique during vacations to capture events that span minutes of time. Sometimes I see things in the time lapse movie that I didn’t see happening as I filmed it. This is one of the greatest benefits of time-lapse movies. The Port of Ravenna, Italy on July 3, 2022 Near the end of this 34 second time-lapse movie, a sail boat made…
