The hood will showcase driver Kenny Wallace in front of an American flag. The hood art is a key component in a multi-tiered campaign effort to encourage fans to vote Kenny Wallace into the NASCAR Nextel All-Star Challenge event on May 19 at Lowes Motor Speedway.
The Number 78 hood also will feature the campaign slogan Vote for Kenny, and
www.voteinkenny.com, the campaigns Web site. This Web link directs fans to the
www.nascar.com registration page for the contest. After registering, fans may scroll down and select Kenny Wallace as the driver they would like to see voted into the NASCAR Nextel All-Star Challenge.
The NASCAR Nextel All-Star Challenge event showcases race winners from the previous and current NASCAR Nextel Cup Series seasons, plus the winner and runner-up of the NEXTEL All-Star Challenge Open; a preliminary event for teams not qualified for the NASCAR NEXTEL All-Star Challenge event; and another NEXTEL Open driver who wins the NEXTEL Fan Vote into the NEXTEL All-Star Challenge event.
