Harvick & Martin to Race at Iowa Speedway
Kevin Harvick and Mark Martin – the top two finishers at this year's Daytona 500 – will race at Iowa Speedway this year.
Harvick, driving for Richard Childress Racing, will race in the track's first NASCAR race, the NASCAR Grand National East-West Sunday, May 20. Martin, driving for Ginn Racing, will race Friday night, July 13, in the Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series race.
"I look forward to racing in this year's NASCAR Grand National East-West race at Iowa Speedway," said Harvick. "I've heard a lot about the track, that it's a fast track, and it should be a great race".
The 7/8-mile asphalt tri-oval was designed by former NASCAR champion Rusty Wallace.
"When we cut back to a limited schedule this season, one of the great things about it was that it would give me time to do a lot of other things that I've wanted to do," Martin said. "I love to race all types of stuff, and I think we'll have a blast up there in Iowa in July."
