This weekend finds the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series in California’s wine country as they visit the Sonoma Raceway. Considering road courses have been providing some of the best racing in recent years, it is hard to pick one memorable moment out of many, such as Jeff Gordon’s sixth-straight road course win in 2000 or Davey Allison’s tainted win in 1991 at Ricky Rudd’s expense. Here, members of the BeyondTheFlag.com staff weigh in with their favorites.

Although it isn’t as impactful a moment as anything above, Josh Wise running the event last year in Dogecoin livery will definitely stick above the rest for me. An avid Reddit.com user (or “redditor”), I frequent both their /r/NASCAR and /r/dogecoin subreddits and also took part in the crowdfunding drive to adorn Wise’s No. 98 in Dogecoin livery. Granted, it wasn’t as big as when he was voted into the All-Star race in May 2014, but anytime the “DogeCar” was on the track it was an awesome reminder of what a group of fans had the power to accomplish.

My favorite Sonoma moment would have to be when Smoke beat Ricky Rudd to the finish line back in 2005 (pictured above). He was racing for Joe Gibbs and man, that was an amazing season as a whole. I have always been a sucker for a road course so watching the best drivers in the sport go at it, on a real driver’s track, is a sight to behold.

For me, it was June of 2011 and the Tony Stewart vs. Brian Vickers issues. Tony claimed Brian was blocking, and took matters into his own hands to police it. Vickers returned the favor a few laps later and put Tony on top of a tire barrier, effectively ending his day.
