Going to take a look at this NASCAR article. The review should be up soon. good888 (talk) 19:50, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

Review is now complete. good888 (talk) 13:40, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Lead section

• "65,000 people attended the race." Do you have the TV figures as well?

• No, only the ratings. I guess that TV figures for NASCAR races during the early to mid 2000's were not published Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Report

• "Chevrolet were leading with 237 points. Dodge followed in second with 189 in front of Ford, who was in third with 183" Change the first full stop to a comma.

•  Done Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• "During the first practice session, Scott Riggs, who was scored eighteenth" Rewrite to: "During the first practice session, Scott Riggs, who finished eighteenth"

•  Done Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• "and Jared Fogle gave the command for drivers to start their engines." I think you need to explain who Jared Fogle is.

• He is a spokesman for Subway. I have added that information in.  Done Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• "One lap later, Gordon reclaimed the lead position." I would perfer "the first position"

• Rewritten  Done Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• "On lap 218, Burton drove to his garage because of a carburettor problem." Link carburettor.

• Linked carburettor  Done Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• "Seven laps later, Johnson passed Labonte to reclaim the lead position." Once again I would perfer "the first position"

• Rewritten  Done Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• If you have the TV figures, add them in the post-race section.

• See my lead section comment Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Overall, I am happy with this article. I will promote once the issues above are addressed. good888 (talk) 13:40, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

@Good888: I've dealt with the issues. However, for the TV figures, I was unable to find a source. Once again, Thank you Z105space (Talk to me!) 18:58, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
