With a lifetime devoted to stock-car racing, Leonard Wood and his family still look forward to race day after all these years. Wood Brothers Racing's current driver is Matt DiBenedetto, who guided the No. 21 Ford to the playoffs in 2020. He will be back behind the wheel for the team in 2021.
One of the most successful teams in NASCAR history is from Patrick County. The Wood Brothers Racing Museum is located at 21 Performance Drive in Stuart, just 30 minutes from Martinsville Speedway. Wood Brothers Racing is one of the oldest continuously operating teams in NASCAR.

Toyota was the most active sponsor during the event, with the company generating over 13.8 thousand posts and social interactions about the Daytona 500.
The Dodge Charger Daytona Was so Dominant NASCAR Had to Ban It. There was once a car so powerful and so aggressive that the officials determined it would be an unfair advantage on the NASCAR track. This car to many, was more than a car.
The HEMI engine was a mechanical marvel that was so successful it was banned from NASCAR after its first year. By 1963, the 426-cubic-inch Wedge engine used in NASCAR was deemed to have hit its limit for horsepower.
Still, NASCAR has seen interest wane in recent years on several fronts. But the sport is certainly not dead, and far from dying, according to executives at NASCAR and race team execs, as well as drivers and television network analysts.

We knew it was coming to an end: Monster Energy, after three years, is no longer NASCAR's title sponsor.
The Miller Brewing Company, promoting their Miller Lite beer, only signed on with Team Penske to sponsor Brad Keselowski's #2 Ford for the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway during the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season. Last year, they sponsored Keselowski for nine races.
Dodge has already announced that they're looking into a return to NASCAR. Despite designing a Gen-6 car, Dodge stepped away from the sport after Brad Keselowski's 2012 championship. The American automaker pulled its support, unable to find a flagship team to replace the departing Penske Racing.
After years away from the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, Dodge will announce later this week of plans to return to NASCAR. An official announcement is scheduled for Thursday at the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
Statistics current as of November 17, 2019. John Paul Menard (born August 21, 1980) is an American former professional stock car racing driver. He last competed full-time in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series in the No. 21 Ford Mustang for Wood Brothers Racing, retiring from regular competition after the 2019 season.
Menard actually had a year left on his current deal with the Wood Brothers and his family's home improvement chain is set to sponsor the No. 21 and various Team Penske programs next year regardless of the driver. As a result, Menard had a large amount of input into who replaced him.

Paul Menard handed over the keys Tuesday to one of NASCAR's most recognizable rides. The 39-year-old from Eau Claire will step away from full-time competition at the end of the season, and Matt DiBenedetto, the replacement he suggested and the only person considered, will take over the Wood Brothers Racing No.
