NASCAR & POP CULTURE

In NASCAR, we know how to have a good time -- NASCAR attracts some of the biggest stars of music, film and television. It's not uncommon to see top-tier stars like Will Ferrell, Stevie Wonder, Vince Vaughn, Usher, Nicolas Cage or Kelly Clarkson joining us at NASCAR events.

NASCAR drivers are no strangers to Hollywood, either -- Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon, Jamie McMurray and others have made appearances in major motion pictures, sitcoms, dramas and talk shows. The growing world of satellite radio is part of NASCAR, too, with drivers like Tony Stewart and Juan Montoya hosting their own weekly programs on Sirius Satellite Radio.
