I will be at this race. Im heading out Thursday to get down there in time to watch the first practice Thursday evening.
 
Update from Penske website.

"..with the hand injury suffered by Parker Klingerman on Monday, and Brad's sponsor obligations keeping him busy at the track next week, Jacques Villeneuve will be competing on a NASCAR oval for the first time. He has participated in many Penske test sessions at various oval tracks and has always conveyed a strong desire to compete in a stock car on an oval track. Since Jacques was at Penske headquarters when the decision was made to sit Parker out for the next 2 races while his hand heals, Jacques was the natural choice to fill the seat of the Discount Tire entry. Althought no decision has been made concerning Daytona in July, we are excited to have Jacques Villeneuve behind the wheel of the 22 car for the Feed the Children 300 at Kentucky Speedway on June 29th".

Scary, huh?
 
Joe Gibbs Racing has withdrew the #20 car for Joey Logano due to no sponsorship.
