Well, let me tell ya, them NASCAR boys that race on them short tracks sure do know how to get the crowd goin’. I ain’t talkin’ about them big ol’ fancy tracks with long straights and wide turns—nah, I mean them short tracks where it’s tight, where they gotta fight for every inch. Them drivers that shine on them short tracks, they got something special, that’s for sure. Now, if you ask me, here’s a handful of the best short track drivers that you just can’t overlook.
Denny Hamlin
Now, Denny Hamlin, he’s like a bulldog on them short tracks. I ain’t kiddin’. Out of all the races he done run on them shorter ovals, he’s won 14 times. That’s no small feat, lemme tell ya. He’s been around for a long time, and he knows how to handle them tight corners and them tricky turns better than most folks. Now, if you’ve ever watched him race at tracks like Martinsville, you’ll see what I mean. He don’t back down, no matter how close them other cars get to him. He’s a real master of them short tracks.

Tyler Reddick
Next up, we got this young fella, Tyler Reddick. You might not think much of him cause he’s a little feller, standing at just 5 feet 2 inches, but don’t let that fool ya. He drives the #45 Toyota Camry for 23XI Racing, and when it comes to short track racing, he’s got the skills. In just his fifth full-time season, he’s been showin’ that he’s one to watch. You wouldn’t believe how good he is on them tight little ovals. If you ask me, he’s gonna be around for a long time, and he’s gonna keep turnin’ heads on them short tracks.
Joey Logano
Then, you got Joey Logano. Now, he might rub some folks the wrong way sometimes, but there ain’t no doubt about it—he’s one of the best when it comes to short track races. I reckon he’s been around long enough to know how to handle the pressure and them tight corners. If you look at his track record at places like Martinsville, you’ll see what I mean. He’s tough, he’s gritty, and he can get real aggressive when he needs to. That’s the kind of driver you want on a short track. If you don’t think so, just watch how he handles himself when it’s crunch time.
Kyle Busch
Now, let’s not forget about Kyle Busch. Some folks love him, others not so much, but there’s no denying that he’s got skill on them short tracks. He’s got the experience, and he don’t make too many mistakes. You watch him race at them places like Bristol or Richmond, and you’ll see him out there, makin’ moves and fightin’ for position like he’s got something to prove. Whether you like him or not, you gotta respect how he races on them tight tracks.

Brad Keselowski
And then we got Brad Keselowski, now there’s a driver who knows his way around short tracks too. He might not get as much attention as some of the others, but when it comes to short track races, he’s right up there with the best of ‘em. He’s raced at places like Bristol and Martinsville plenty of times, and he knows how to get the job done. Ain’t no track too small for Brad, and he’s always lookin’ to move up the ranks when it gets tight out there.
So, if you ever get the chance to watch any of these drivers race on a short track, don’t miss it. Them short tracks, they sure do bring out the best in ’em. It’s a whole different ball game compared to them big, wide tracks. It’s all about bein’ quick, bein’ aggressive, and makin’ sure you don’t make no mistakes. It don’t matter if you’re a veteran like Hamlin, or a young buck like Reddick, if you can handle them short tracks, you can handle just about anything. And trust me, them short track races? They sure do put on a show.
