SPEED to air specials from Bristol COT test
SPEED will air a pair of 30-minute specials from the Car of Tomorrow test sessions from Bristol at 7 p.m. ET on February 28 and March 1.
"NASCAR is expecting somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 cars to participate ... with some teams bringing more than one car," said Frank Wilson, SPEED vice president of production. "This is a huge test that will set the table for the rest of the NASCAR race season ... how teams handle this car will go a long way toward determining the 2007 Nextel Cup championship."
John Roberts will host the SPEED coverage with analysis from 18-year NASCAR crew chief Larry McReynolds and reporting from Bob Dillner.
"SPEED was there when the first wheel was turned at Daytona testing in January and coverage of the Car of Tomorrow tests from Bristol simply reaffirms the network's commitment to covering NASCAR in the most comprehensive way possible," Wilson added.
