Plot of NASCAR Drivers by Payout

Plot of NASCAR Winners by Payout

This scatterplot displays NASCAR race winners from 1975 to 2003, plotting the year of the race against the payout amount. Points are colored by track name and sized by track length, revealing patterns such as larger superspeedways producing winners from further back in the field. The visualization uses d3.v5 for data loading via `d3.csv` and the Vega-Lite API to encode the marks, with a custom tooltip showing driver and track information. The data comes from a GitHub-hosted winners.csv dataset.

Plot of NASCAR Winners by Starting Position

This scatterplot visualizes NASCAR winners from 1975 to 2003 by starting position across race years, with points colored by track name and sized by track length. Larger dots, such as Talladega Superspeedway, reveal patterns where winners start further back compared to shorter tracks like Martinsville. The visualization uses vega-lite-api with d3.v5 to load CSV data, while a single-selection brush and tooltip displaying driver and track enhance interactivity. The config.js file customizes axis and label appearance for improved readability.

Plot of NASCAR Winners by Starting Position

This scatterplot displays NASCAR race winners from 1975 to 2003, plotting each winner’s starting position against the race year. Points are colored by track name and sized by track length, revealing patterns such as larger ovals like Talladega producing winners from farther back in the field, while short tracks like Martinsville reward front-runners. The visualization uses d3.csv to load the winners dataset and builds the chart with Vega-Lite API, encoding positions, colors, sizes, and tooltips. A custom config ensures axis and label styling for readability.

Fork of Plot of NASCAR Winners by Starting Position

A scatterplot shows NASCAR winners' starting positions over time, with each point colored by track name and sized by track length, revealing that larger tracks like Talladega Superspeedway allow winners from farther back in the field than short tracks like Martinsville. The interactive visualization, built with Vega-Lite and the vega-lite-api framework, uses brush selection on the x-axis and click filtering on color to explore subsets, while data is loaded via D3's `csv` from a GitHub-hosted NASCAR dataset spanning 1975 to 2003.

Plot of NASCAR Winners by Number of Lead Changes

This visualization plots NASCAR race winners by year and number of lead changes, with each circle colored by track name and sized by track length. The scatterplot uses Vega-Lite’s API for encoding, with `vl.x().fieldN('Year')`, `vl.y().fieldQ('Lead Changes')`, and `vl.size().fieldN('Length')` to differentiate track dimensions. Data is loaded asynchronously from a CSV via D3’s `csv` function, then rendered using Vega’s SVG view. The tooltip, built with `vega-tooltip`, displays the driver and track name on hover. Colors and sizes reveal patterns, such as larger ovals enabling more overtaking than short tracks.

NASCAR Scatterplot With Dropdown, Filter

This interactive scatterplot displays NASCAR race winner statistics from 1975 to 2003, plotting year on the x-axis against a user-selectable y-axis metric, including starting position, payout, caution flags, lead changes, and winning time. A dropdown menu from ReactDropdown enables switching between these attributes, while points are colored by track name using a d3.scaleOrdinal color scale. Hovering over the color legend highlights data points for a selected track and fades others to 12% opacity. The visualization uses d3.scaleTime and d3.scaleLinear scales, renders SVG circles via React components, and loads CSV data with d3.csv.

NASCAR Winners Plot with Menu

This interactive scatter plot displays NASCAR race statistics, comparing race years against selectable metrics such as start position, payout, track length, or caution flags. A dropdown menu updates the y-axis attribute dynamically, while circle color encodes track name and size encodes race length. Built with React and D3 v5, it uses scaleLinear, scaleOrdinal, and CSV-loaded race data with SVG rendering for marks and axes.

NASCAR history of drivers and tracks

This visualization shows NASCAR race winners across years, with each circle representing a driver’s starting position in a race. The x-axis maps the year, the y-axis lists drivers sorted by their first winning year, circle size encodes starting position, and color distinguishes tracks. Built with Vega-Lite API, it loads CSV data via D3’s `csv` function and renders to SVG using Vega’s renderer, with tooltips enabled through Vega Tooltip.
