#NASCAR Sprint Unlimited format set for 2015

#NASCAR Fans To Join Crew Chiefs In Setting Starting Grid
Fans To Join Crew Chiefs In Setting Starting Grid
NASCAR announced today that the season-opening 75-lap Sprint Unlimited at Daytona International Speedway on Saturday, Feb. 14, will be split into two segments. A competition caution at lap 25 will separate the segments in the non-points event, scheduled for an 8:15 p.m. ET start (live on FOX, Motor Racing Network Radio, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).

New this year, select fans will be paired with each crew chief for a random drawing to determine starting and pit road positions. The drawings will take place on Friday, Feb. 13 at the FDOT Main Stage inside the Sprint FANZONE beginning at 3:30 p.m.

“Anticipation for the start of the NASCAR season is at an all-time high among fans and drivers,” said NASCAR Executive Vice President and Chief Racing Development Officer Steve O’Donnell. “Fans have a unique opportunity to participate in key elements of the event, making this year’s Sprint Unlimited even more exciting.”

The field of 25 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers will include 2014 Coors Light Pole Award winners, former Sprint Unlimited race winners and Daytona 500 pole winners who competed full time in 2014, and all 16 Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers from 2014. If an eligible driver does not enter the race, the open position will be filled based on 2014 Championship driver points. The first five provisional drivers, respectively, are Clint Bowyer, Paul Menard, Marcos Ambrose, Casey Mears, and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Tickets for the Sprint Unlimited are available online at DaytonaInternationalSpeedway.com or by calling 1-800-PITSHOP. Fans can follow @NASCAR and @MissSprintCup on Twitter to engage in the #SprintUnlimited conversation.

#IWasThereJG - #NASCAR Race Mom




2015 is going to be an exciting and emotional year as Jeff Gordon runs his final season competing for a NASCAR championship.  Right now, you can share your special moments and memories from Jeff’s career using the #IWasThereJG on social media!



Yup #IWasThereJG!

NASCAR Race Mom was lucky enough to be there when Jeff Gordon became the first five-time NASCAR winner at Indy, snatching the lead from Hendrick Motorsports teammate Kasey Kahne on a restart with 17 laps remaining and holding on for his second Sprint Cup victory this season and the 90th of his career!

I was able to capture that Iconic NASCAR Moment on the video above as I watched from victory Lane.   I was also on track as Gordon and his family and team kissed the bricks!


Yup #IWasThereJG!


NASCAR Race Mom has never had the pleasure of meeting Jeff Gordon in person.  However, I do have the fond memory of speaking with him via the telephone! 

I won a prize in the Pepsi ‘Max It Now’ Sweepstakes.  
“Hello, this is Jeff Gordon,” our conversation started. “How are you doing?” he asked. I am sure that this NASCAR legend had no idea just how great I was feeling. Jeff Gordon presented himself so at ease and polite, he immediately calmed my nerves.

2015 will be full of historic moments. NASCAR Great Jeff Gordon hopes that you share them with him. Will you be able to say #IWasThereJG?
