141:, like the others, is exceptionally short of inline citations. Within the body of the article, there are no citations at all in the second paragraph of the "Background" section, in the "Entry list" (although the table does have one), the first three paragraphs of the "Qualifying" section, the first two paragraphs of the "Budweiser Duel" section, two of the three paragraphs describing "Race Two". Within the "Race" section, there are only four inline citations, and they are mostly appear to be backing up specific facts, rather than providing a citation for the whole race summary. All the race statistics, awards, media and post-race standings have no inline citations. The prose itself isn't particularly engaging, but given the serious verifiability concerns, I haven't read it closely enough to offer full comment. 199:(a former FAC of mine that cannot seem to get a reviewer). Those three have been to FAC and back and are, in my opinion, the three best articles WikiProject NASCAR has to offer. They are all better articles because of the FAC process, which can be frustrating, but always gets articles into better shape once the process is complete. One problem that perhaps may not sit well with you, Nascarking, given the amount of work you've put into these articles, is that they may be over-detailed. For example, is it really necessary to give the entry list in a table of its own? Should the Budweiser Duels have that much detail given the fact that they have an article of their own? Additionally, the prose needs to be engaging, not just a bunch of one-liners (such as are seen 137:, the nominator did not seem to sufficiently grasp the problem, leading me to believe that placing those articles on hold would not be an effective process. To avoid any accusations of a grudge against this user, I think a community reassessment would be more appropriate. This article, 294:
would be the best option here. As it is an FA, it is of the highest quality possible and I truly think it can help you in getting this article to the same level. But sometimes, to move forward, you have to take a step back, which is why I'm voting to delist here. Good luck!
203:) or disjointed sentences. I also don't think all of those headers in the race section are necessary either. And most of all, citations, citations, citations. It's hard to have such a thing as "too many citations." The more, the better, so long as there aren't 375:. After briefly looking through the article, I found some sections, such as Entry list, Qualifying and Media, that have large amounts unsourced information. That alone is enough to disqualify the article from meeting 128:

Looking at the version I reviewed, I am ashamed to say that I overlooked some of what is mentioned above. I'll try to make up for it by providing citations later today. Thank you for keeping an eye out!

With great reluctance, I'm also putting my vote for delisting. Having personally reviewed other GAN's, I can't continue to ignore that an article I've put so much work into is not GA material.--

Not up to par with the other GAs in the project; however, I firmly believe it can get there. It needs a trim (there are too many odd-ball, unsourced stats that are being tracked) and copyedit.
