This sounds like it has some awesome potential for our Applejack! :ajsmug:

5695498 Oh trust me I have big plans for her in this story :ajsmug:

Sweet! Can't wait until more! By any chance ya gonna add any friendshipping between RD and AJ? Not like romance or anything. But I mean as in like best friends type of stuff?

5695542 I was actually thinking of in a later chapter that RD was going to be racing a car as well, but for another team then the one Applejack is with, but they agree to help each other out on the track. So yes Rainbow Dash will be in the story and yes there will be friend shipping with Applejack

Haha awesome, I can't wait! So far so good, keep it up! :ajsmug:

5695556 Thanks!!!! It means a lot to already be getting positive comments on my first story ever :pinkiehappy:

Great to see another NASCAR fan on here. Hope to see more soon.

5695598 Great? More like absolutely positively 20% cooler to see another NASCAR fan. Like I said I will try to post a new chapter every day if I can. No promises on Sundays, those being race day and I'll be too busy watching the races, but more will be coming I promise

5695613 well don't want to take up too much of your time, but I completely understand about your Sunday's being occupied. In fact, if you want to use Checkered Flag (the OC pony in my avatar) you can if you want.

5695624 That would be great. I would be honored to use your OC in the story. If you have any suggestions on what I could use him for, that would be greatly appreciated my friend :twilightsmile:

5695634 well he IS based on my favorite racer, Jeff Gordon, though I don't know if you plan to actually use Jeff at all. But Checkered is normally a friend in the garage area others can talk to or he can give racing advice to Applejack, or her team owner.

5695659 2 things. 1. Jeff Gordon is my all time favorite driver and 2. Since this is basically a cross over with the humans and ponies the actual Jeff Gordon will be used in the story. Here's an idea, how bout your OC be a part of Applejacks pit crew? So he's with her all the time at every race?

5695682 first off, excellent choice ;) second, I got to MEET him nine years ago in Vegas. Third, Checkered could be her crew chief?

5695698 Thanks, absolutely amazing and how bout assistant crew chief since I already had Steve LeTart casted as Applejacks crew chief. Would that work for Checkered?

5695718 sorry, I forgot about Steve for a sec. How about Spotter?

5695731 That works perfectly because that was a spot I had yet to fill. Congratulations, Checkered Flag will be Applejacks spotter. It will be a few chapters before he's brought into the story though, still working up to that part still

5695742 no problem on the help. And I'm close to publishing my first story on this site. I have another Captain Alaska account on Fanfiction that I've uploaded a few stories to first.

5695788 Nice, can't wait to read them! Now back to writing up the rough drafts of the next couple of chapters on the story. I will defiantly have chapter 2 uploaded tomorrow

Needs more Danica Patrick. :trollestia:

5696980 I do have some very minor plans for Danica Patrick in this story. Applejack will meet her and a bit of a lengthy conversation with Danica, mostly Danica giving Applejack advice, and some interactions with between the two during races but that's it, nothing more

Alright everypony, chapter 2 has been published! Go and check it out and let me know what y'all think.

Thanks,
The NASCAR Grand Martial

Nice, though how big is Ponyville International Speedway?

5697464 It's basically identical to Daytona and Talladega. Ponyville International Speedway is a 2.54 mile long superspeedway

5697475 well then, she's probably going to want to talk to Jr too about that

5697491 Don't worry, a Mr. Dale Earnhardt Jr will not only been introduced with in the next chapter or so, he is going to be having a major role in the story, along with Jeff

Clever Farmer's insurance joke. I wonder what Applejack's sponsor will be.

As for the track, technically the track we see today wasn't built until the late 1950s. From 1948 until the first Daytona 500, the racers raced on the actual beach

5702779 I was just going with what I read in my book, NASCAR: The Complete History. I didn't want to get to far into detail on Daytona just yet. But what about the rest of the chapter?

5702795 I liked it. The drivers were acting like the real drivers and it was sad reminiscing about The Intimidator

5702978 Glad you did. That was what I was trying to aim for bout the drivers acting like them selfs and the whole reminiscing part on Dale Sr, especially with the sentence "Jr watched his father" off on its own

5702779 Also you'll find out soon enough on who Applejacks sponsor will be

Just wait until she sees the Axalta car! Ah, the 1994 Coca-Cola 600, what a great race, and I wasn't even born yet.

I know this is your story, but I think her number should be 25, 84, 94 or 96. 25 because that's a Hendrick number, 84 is the reversal of 48 for Jimmie, 94 is the same year Jeff won his first two Cup Races and 96 is double of 48 and quadruple of 24, kind of like the reason they gave Jimmie the 48.

5706099 Oh just wait and see, I've already got her number decided, but I ain't tellin ya yet. She's in a 24 car for the practice and her tryout because her teacher/mentor is Gordon

Just inform everypony that the real Jeff Gordon has captuered the Pole Position for this weekends race in the Kobalt Tools 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway

Sorry everypony, usually by now I would have had chapter 5 uploaded for you all to enjoy but I've had a bit of a busy day. I actually just got back from playing football (or in our universe hoofball) with some friends of mine. But rest assured I will defiantly have chapter 5 uploaded by midnight tonight, unless Princess Luna throws me a curve ball I should be fine.

Also chapter 6 will not be uploaded tomorrow due to the Kobalt Tools 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. So to make up for it I will be posting both chapter 6 and chapter 7 on Monday.

Have a great rest of your day everypony and in the words of Darrell Waltrip "BOGITY BOGITY BOGITY LETS GO RACING BOYS!!!!!!!"

Sincerely,

The NASCAR Grand Martial

5706099 Also don't forget Jeff also has a 3M and a Panasonic car she hasn't seen yet

5711884 yes I was. Very cool and thanks for using him. He and Eddie D'Hont can chill together atop the grandstands during the races and spot Jeff and AJ

Well congratulations to the #4 car of Kevin Harvick on taking home the W today. I am absolutely proud of the #78 car of Martin Truex Jr for finishing 2nd, 2nd!!!!!!!! Downer about Gordon though, as he finishes 18th

Hi! Great Story! It's nice to see another NASCAR fan on Fimfiction! I was just wondering if my Oc could have a part in this fic? (Perferably as a driver, but I would be honored if he could have even just a little part in a NASCAR fic) ...if that's okay with you:fluttershyouch:. If so he is a male yellow pegasus with a orange and red mane. His name is Flamefly. His cutie mark looks like the Detroit Red Wings symbol. Either way great fic :rainbowdetermined2:! So Have a Derpy:derpytongue2:. Addition/edit: I am pumped for Monday 2 chapters of a Great Fic *squee*

So Flamefly's with NASCAR's most popular driver. (I was hoping for Jimmie or Logano but I'm fine with Jr. Something tells me that GAP Trixie is with Johnson or Mcmurray. :rainbowdetermined2:)That's interesting. Hope he gets in the cup series! As always great chapter. :rainbowdetermined2: (first again!:derpytongue2:)

<<The NASCAR Grand Martial

Your editor will probably catch this but you don't say the Vinyl is with Kevin Harvick. Just saying.

5761219 Um what? As in I shouldn't have Vinyl with Harvick or what?

5761213 Yeah I will still wish for Logano or Johnson but Jr. like my 5th favorite Driver so I'm not mad/sad. He's popular so I feel fine.

5761251 Reason why I didn't put him with Logano is because I absolutely despise Logano and his teammate Brad Keselowski. They are my 2 most hated drivers ever. Dale is my 2nd favorite driver after Gordon and ahead of my 3rd favorite in the #78 of Martin Truex Jr. But what's that whole thing about Vinyl and Harvick?
