2010 NASCAR Media Tour

[BMuddMan]

Curious if any of our NASCAR folks know when the annual January pre-season media tour will take place in Charlotte in 2010. Wondering if the track announced those dates at last weekend's race? Trying to plan ahead and get travel approved.

Thanks very much.

Yeah, they did - starts Jan. 18 (and usually runs through that Thursday, which would be 1.21.10)

The NASCAR media tour will be from Jan. 18-21 (Monday-Thursday). Also, the National Motorsports Press Association's Hall of Fame Induction ceremony will be Sat. Jan. 16. And, the NMPA's convention and awards banquet will be Sun. Jan. 17. Both events will be at the same Concord, N.C., hotel that serves as the base for the media tour. The NMPA will induct Roger Penske, Rusty Wallace, Robert Yates and Jack Roush into the Hall of Fame.
