IROC Voting Update:

Voting continues to heat up among the 12 nominees in the Crown Royal IROC Legends of Victory Lane, a program representing the first “all-time team” in series history selected by the fans. A handful of votes separate Mark Martin and Dale Earnhardt for the lead in the Stock Car category. Mario Andretti is the early front-runner in the Open-Wheel category, with Al Unser Jr. a close second. Scott Pruett holds a comfortable lead in the Road Racing category, with Mark Donohue and Tom Kendall battling for second. Voting will conclude in September, and the four finalists will be honored at the final Crown Royal IROC race in Atlanta in late October. Fans can vote for the 12 nominated finalists at www.crownroyalracing.com.(Alan Taylor Communications)(5-11-2005)
