· Listen and Watch … The Lucas Oil 150 is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. MST, Friday, Nov. 7. It will broadcast on SPEED (TV), MRN (radio) and Sirius Satellite Radio (Ch. 128).
Bill Davis Racing Quotes:
Scott Speed on racing at Phoenix International Raceway:
“The last five years of my racing career I have made Phoenix my home in the winter for training, so I am excited to race at PIR. I have a lot of family and friends that will be at the race this weekend, and I hope to run well in front of them. I have never run on this track, but I will be racing the Truck along with the Cup car, so I should get enough seat time to learn the track.”
