David Ragan cites the Coca-Cola 600 right up there with the rest of NASCAR's historic races: the Daytona 500, the Brickyard 400 and the Southern 500.
Only the 600-miler is an even greater test of the endurance of both the driver and the car. "Half-way into the Coca-Cola 600, you're 300 miles in. And in a typical race you don't have much longer to go. In fact, that's about the standard distance of a Nationwide race. But in the 600, they tell you you're just half-way and you've got to do 300 miles all over again. So, it is a long night."-Breaking Limits May 21 - 9:43 PM

At 66 years old, Martinsville (Va.) Speedway is the oldest track on the NASCAR circuit and its old-school feel makes it a favorite of driver David Ragan.

Ragan takes his No. 34 Front Row Motorsports team to the .526-mile paperclip-shaped track for Sunday's STP Gas Booster 500 after consecutive top-25 finishes at Bristol and Fontana. The driver expects to improve on his early-season results with Race 6 at Martinsville, where he has a solid record in his 13 career starts. The driver has one top-10 and one top-15 finish and a best result of eighth (2011).-Breaking Limits

Auto Club Speedway is rough, worn out and abrasive, but David Ragan is looking forward to racing on the two-mile oval in Fontana, Calif.

The character-filled track will be a good test of Front Row Motorsports' new Ford Fusions and how they handle on an intermediate track. The team made strides in the off-season to improve the aero platform for its cars. Sunday's Auto Club 400 will be Ragan's 11th start at the Southern California speedway. He has one top-10 and four top-15 finishes at the track, with a top result of seventh (2009).-Breaking Limits

Like most drivers, David Ragan circles the Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway race on the calendar as one to look forward to.

But this year, he also put a question mark next to it. Without any Sprint Cup Series testing at the .533-mile oval in the new Gen-6 car, the driver says the short track will be the first "wild card" on the 2013 schedule. But he likes his chances. Ragan earned his second NASCAR win at the track in 2009 in the Nationwide Series. He has 12 Sprint Cup starts at Bristol with a top finish of 10th.-Breaking Limits

David Ragan got caught up in "wrong place, wrong time" accidents in the series' first two races of the year, so he's looking for a day of no surprises in Sunday's Kobalt Tools 400.

The weekend will produce some uncertainty, however, with the event marking the first time the new Gen-6 car races on a mile-and-a-half track. To help alleviate some of that uncertainty, the team will participate in an open test at the track Thursday before race practice officially begins Friday. Ragan has six Cup career starts at Las Vegas with a top finish of seventh (2008).-Breaking Limits

After falling victim to a multi-car, accordion-style pile-up in the season-opening Daytona 500 last weekend, David Ragan looks forward to having more control of his own destiny on the flat, one-mile oval in Avondale, AZ.

The lower banking and significantly slower speeds traditionally make racing at Phoenix more about finesse and handling and put a driver's fate more in his own hands. Ragan has 12 starts under his belt at PIR. He has one top-10 finish - a 10th-place run in 2008.-Breaking Limits

The Detail Doctor, the vinyl, leather and plastic "As Seen on TV" car restorer will be the primary sponsor of Ragan's No. 34 Ford for NASCAR's season-opening event at Daytona.

Detail Doctor is endorsed by TV personality Danny "The Count" Koker. Fans of custom choppers and hot rods know Koker from his appearances on the History Channel's hit series "Counting Cars" and "Pawn Stars." "This is a perfect partnership for me," said Ragan, who, like Koker, is an avid car collector. "I've got a whole garage full of older cars that I've acquired over the years that I like to tinker with and fix up. The Detail Doctor is just what I need."-Breaking Limits
