The 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season kicks off on Saturday night with the annual Sprint Unlimited where five Ford drivers – Aric Almirola, Greg Biffle, Brad Keselowski, Joey Logano, and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. – will be looking to win the race for the first time.

THE FIRST TIME…Ford won the Sprint Unlimited was on Feb. 8, 1987 when Bill Elliott captured what was then known as the Busch Clash. The format that year was a single 20-lap run (50 miles) with no pit stop required. Elliott, who started on the pole in his No. 9 Coors Thunderbird after a blind draw, fell back to sixth on the start after Terry Labonte and Ricky Rudd were involved in an accident on the first lap. On the ensuing restart, Elliott steadily reeled in leader Darrell Waltrip and passed him on lap eight. Elliott led the final 13 laps and won with an average speed of 197.802 mph, a record that still stands for the event. A week later, Elliott won his second Daytona 500.

Hybrids come in all sizes these days, with even large SUVs offering eco-friendly mpg sippers in an effort to draw more buyers.

But one of the key categories for hybrids remains the compact car, and there’s quite a bit of competition in this area from both the U.S. and foreign automakers. One consistent competitor is the Honda Civic, which continues to wage a strong fight in the compact hybrid battlefield.

I recently spent some time in a 2014 Civic hybrid, and I’m back with a full report.
