SPEED to air two COT specials

SPEED will air a pair of 30-minute specials from the NASCAR “Car of Tomorrow" test sessions from Bristol on February 28 and March 1 at 7 p.m. ET.

“NASCAR is expecting somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 cars to participate … with some teams bringing more than one car," said Frank Wilson, SPEED VP 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 NASCAR 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.
