There are a few special paint schemes to look out for at the Dickie’s 500 at Texas Motor Speedway this Sunday. Petty Enterprises announced that the Richard Petty Driving Experience will be the primary sponsor of the #45 Dodge, driven by Chad McCumbee. "Mad Max” Papis will be behind the wheel of the #13 Geico Toyota Camry. Joey Logano, who has tried three times to race the #02 car in the Sprint Cup Series, but qualifying was washed out by rain, will try to qualify again. And, Jamie McMurray’s #26 Crown Royal will promote the ‘Your Name Here 400’ contest on its hood, where they name the May, 2009 Sprint Cup Series event at Richmond International Raceway after an adult fan.
On Saturday, Tim Trout, Beckett’s Racing Magazine and co-host of NASCAR Collector, will be joining 10 lucky RCCA Platinum members, and their guests, at Texas Motor Speedway for the President’s luncheon at the Speedway Club with Mark Dyer, President and CEO of Motorsports Authentics, special guest Jim Hunter from NASCAR, Jeff Hammond from SPEED and Marty Smith from ESPN. They’re going to go on a tour of the garage and do a few meet and greets, be out on pit road for driver introductions for the Nationwide Race and watch that race from a suite at the Speedway Club.
Tune in to NASCAR Collector tomorrow morning from 7:00 to 9:00 on Sirius Satellite. Terry Labonte, one of Texas' favorite NASCAR drivers, will be joining us live. Tune in to participate in the show and have a chance to win one of our great giveaways including 1:24 scale autographed standard paint scheme die-cast of two-time Cup Champion (and winner of last fall’s Texas race) Jimmie Johnson, Kyle Busch and Kasey Kahne.
