I guess all five of us NASCAR afficianados on this board might find this interesting. Tony Stewart, living legend of various forms of auto racing, was doing a promotional event at the Charlotte Motor Speedway this week and gave the TMNT a little love for the sake of the sponsors.

I've gone to a couple of races in Charlotte in my life, and the track really does a good job on their pre-race shows. It would be cool to see what they do with the TMNT license.

Charlotte Motor Speedway officials also announced that country music superstars Big & Rich will perform prior to the Bank of America 500 on Oct. 13. Charlotte Motor Speedway is famous for elaborate pre-race shows and this year’s will also include world-famous tightrope walker Nik Wallenda, who will walk a high wire from the grandstands to Victory Circle, at times more than 100 feet above the ground, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

“Charlotte Motor Speedway has always been the benchmark for pre-race shows and thinking outside the box,” said Stewart. “Whether it’s jumping school buses or military pre-race shows, it’s always been entertaining. “It’ll be pretty cool to see Big & Rich and I was younger when Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came out, so that’ll be neat and I know my niece and nephew will like that.”
