2011 NASCAR RCA Cup Series (Johnsonverse)

The 2011 NASCAR RCA Cup Series was the 63rd season of professional stock car racing in the United States and the 40th modern-era Cup series season. The season included 43 races and two exhibition races, beginning with the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Infineon Raceway and ending with the Los Angeles Times 500 at Ontario Motor Speedway.
The 2011 season was considered by many to be one of the greatest and most exciting Cup Series seasons ever for many different reasons. To much surprise, Renee Walters, after barely making a showing that year and having zero wins, went on to win five of the final thirteen races and then the title over Dale Earnhardt Jr., who led the points for most of the year despite only scoring one win early in the season at Las Vegas. There were nineteen different race winners, the most since 2001. There were also five first-time Cup Series winners, most notably Trevor Bayne, the first of those, with his upset win in the Daytona 500 in just his second career Cup race. The other first-time winners were David Ragan at Daytona in July, Joey Logano at Indianapolis, and Marcos Ambrose at Watkins Glen. Some of those races the first-time winners won are also the biggest and most prestigious on the schedule. In addition, Adam Petty's photo finish win over Clint Bowyer at the spring Talladega race became tied (with Jerry Nadeau's photo finish with Kurt Busch at Darlington in 2003) for the closest finish in the series, and six other races were decided by a margin of 0.059 or fewer.
During the 2010 season, NASCAR announced several calendar changes for 2011, including race additions at North Wilkesboro Speedway and Kentucky Speedway. Once the 2010 season had concluded, NASCAR also announced that the fuel would be changed from Sunoco unleaded to an ethanol blend called 'Sunoco Green E15'.
In addition, Earnhardt-Childress Racing, owned by Dale Earnhardt and Richard Childress, won the Owners' Championship, while Chevrolet won their ninth-consecutive Manufacturers' Championship with 248 points. TBA won Rookie of the Year honors.

===Calendar changes===
For the 2011 season, NASCAR made several major changes to the schedule. One change was that the Kobalt Tools 500, held at Atlanta Motor Speedway, was discontinued. The Auto Club 500 at Auto Club Speedway was reduced to 400 miles, making the name Auto Club 400. More changes to the schedule included North Wilkesboro Speedway regaining its spring date (the First Union 400), which was run on June 5, 2011, and Kentucky Speedway hosted its first RCA Cup Series race, the Quaker State 400 on July 9, 2011. Finally, Martinsville's traditional fall date was replaced by Iowa Speedway.
==Changes==
===Rule changes===
After the 2010 season, the catch can man, who caught excess fuel during pit stops and adjusts the track bar, is no longer needed, because of the addition of a self-venting fuel can. On January 11, 2011, NASCAR reported drivers can only be able to compete for the championship in one of NASCAR's three national racing series, which means the drivers who race in multiple series, most notably in the Cup and Nationwide Series, are able to compete in the races, but not for the championship.
The rule does not affect the exemption rule, as exemptions are determined by the top 35 in NASCAR car owner points. Drivers ineligible for RCA Cup driver points earned RCA Cup owner points for their team.
===Other changes===
The fuel for all major series in NASCAR changed from Sunoco unleaded to an ethanol blend called 'Sunoco Green E15'.
