“The NASCAR Historian” is a project for /r/NASCAR subreddit by user /u/the_colbeast , started in 2014.
During the NASCAR off-season, the members of the subreddit pass the time by counting down the 100 days leading up to the official start of the season- The Daytona 500. While the subreddit counts down one number per day at a particular time of year, all of the data and articles are available year-round on this website. Feel free to browse here at your leisure, or join the /r/NASCAR subreddit everyday from November to February as we countdown to the Daytona 500 with conversations, facts, stories, and trivia from the sport’s past.
Information comes from thousands of sources, but most prominently drivingaverages.com, Jayski.com, and wikipedia.
