Pitiful or Powerful? said...: Brock...I purchased the Kindle edition of the book...I couldn't put it down until I was finished...great job! One queston...does the hard copy edition have pictures? The Kindle edition didn't as near as I can tell...; August 13, 2018 at 3:46 AM
Brock Beard said...: @PitifulorPowerful - Thank you for picking up my book! To answer your question, yes the paperback has a photo chapter in the book after the chapter about Jimmy Means. I'm surprised the Kindle version doesn't have it; the advance digital version sent to reviewers had it.; August 13, 2018 at 9:12 PM
Pitiful or Powerful? said...: Ok thanks Brock...i'll double check my Kindle Edition again to see if somehow I missed the pictures...if they aren't there, I want to buy a copy direct from you...I can imagine those pictures would be too good to miss out on...thanks again for writing such a wonderful book and helping keep the memory of JD alive...; August 14, 2018 at 3:32 AM
Pitiful or Powerful? said...: Hi Brock...I checked my Kindle edition again and lo and behold the pictures ARE there! No clue how I missed them the first go round...sorry for the confusion! Again, GREAT BOOK!!! Really enjoyed it!!!; August 15, 2018 at 3:06 AM
Brock Beard said...: Excellent - I'm glad. Yes, the Kindle edition should be the same as the digital version the publisher gave me, and it sounds like it is.; August 20, 2018 at 11:37 AM

40 drivers start a NASCAR Cup Series race. 38 fill the grid in the XFINITY Series. 36 take the green in Trucks. Yet, even when the field is short, only a handful of these stories are ever told.

The mission of LASTCAR.info is to fill in these missing pieces one week at a time, especially regarding the least-covered racers in motorsports - the last-place finishers.

Since 2009, LASTCAR.info has covered the untold "race" for the most last-place finishes in NASCAR history - and, in doing so, continues to chronicle the trials and triumphs of those who race for something as meaningful as victory: survival.

New NASCAR articles and statistical updates are added following each Monster Energy NASCAR Cup, XFINITY, and Truck Series race weekend, plus driver features, historical retrospectives, editorials, and more.

LASTCAR's Official Definition of a "Last-Place Finisher" (LPF)

For LASTCAR purposes, including rankings and statistics, a “last-place finisher” (LPF) shall be defined as any single NASCAR driver who, after earning a starting spot in the field for a NASCAR-sanctioned points-paying race against other NASCAR Cup, XFINITY, or Truck Series drivers, was at race’s conclusion classified as the last-ranked qualified driver in the field for said race. This classification must be recognized on official NASCAR results, or failing this, by a preponderance of unofficial sources. Only one driver can be classified as the LPF for any single NASCAR-sanctioned race.

So long as the above is met, the LPF can be any one driver classified as such for any reason, including but not limited to (1) a “did not start,” that is, an entrant who qualifies for a starting spot in the race, but for any reason is subsequently unable to start the event, including a post-qualifying driver switch if it is still recognized as the LPF in the results (2) an entrant who encounters an event once the race has started which prevents the driver from finishing ahead of any other qualified entrants, including both DNFs and a driver who finishes under power but laps down, (3) a decision to “start and park” the driver’s entry, (4) a disqualification handed down by NASCAR and/or track officials that subsequently classifies the driver in the final position behind the unofficial LPF.

LASTCAR shall not consider the LPF as anything else, including but not limited to (1) the lowest-ranked driver who finishes the race under power, (2) the fastest driver who does not qualify for the event in question, (3) a driver who was originally the LPF, but sometime after the race was usurped for the spot by a disqualified entrant NASCAR and/or track officials classified as the official LPF, (4) a driver who may be categorized as finishing last for exhibition events (these entrants shall be ranked only in the rankings for that event, and not commingled with LPFs).

In the rare event where official results or a preponderance of unofficial results are later updated with more accurate information about who was the LPF for that event, LASTCAR rankings and statistics shall be updated to reflect that change.
