It's the end of the month, and so let's take a look back at the big stories that dominated April 2011 here at The Marbles. Away we go:
? Talladega ended with the closest finish in NASCAR history. Whether you enjoyed it or think it's a travesty, you have to admit those last few yards were pretty cool.
? NASCAR announced its 2011 nominees for the Hall of Fame, and who didn't get nominated was almost as interesting as who did.
? Dale Earnhardt Jr. sailed past 100 straight winless races. How important is that in the grand scheme of things?
? Jimmie Johnson got dinged for a penalty at Martinsville that could have cost him the race, and he blasted NASCAR. Shortly after some reeducation efforts, he apologized. Profusely.
? Kimi Raikkonen is coming to NASCAR, and he's driving for Kyle Busch. For now.
? The NFL's Randy Moss once scared the heck out of Tony Stewart. Great story.
? With two straight last-second wins, Kevin Harvick earned a new nickname: The Closer.
? For the first time, Brian Vickers opened the door to other teams besides Red Bull for the 2012 season.
? It's entirely possible the 2011 Nationwide champ won't win a single race.
? And finally in podcast news, this month The King himself, Mr. Richard Petty, stopped by to chat with us, as did Matt Kenseth, who once almost had to dress as a chicken for a radio stunt, and Kurt Busch, who's convinced it's all about to come together, any second now.
