The Newest Face In The Nationwide Series
All eyes will be on Danica Patrick as she makes her debut in the Nationwide series this year.
Season #6 Starts At Daytona
The sixth season of Lucky Dog Racing's Nationwide Series will start with the Camping World 300 at Daytona. This year marks the sixth season of our league which started in 2005. This year we will have a milestone, while the cup series celebrated their 200th race last year, the Nationwide series will celebrate their 200th this year.
We remain with 45 members in the field and will have seven rookies starting at Daytona. Those members who are coming up from the Truck series are David Latimer, Natalie Rush-Jones, David Smith and Rodney Webb. Cup veteran Ray Perrotta begins his first full season in the Nationwide series and we have a brand new player in the league as well, Leon Winstanley.
There is a new rule regarding the claim jumper bonuses. The season has been divided into three segments. You can now use a driver once in each of those segments instead of the entire season. This should alleviate the problems of rookies having a big advantage over the rest of the field when they sign up late in the season.
So get ready for a new season starting very soon. Everyone will be chasing President Lou Demian who will be looking to become the first person to win three championships in a series. There will be lots of competition and lots of members who will be looking to win this cup in 2010!
Kyle Busch celebrated his Nationwide Championship during the off-season and there's a chance he might be going for it again in 2010.
