Five NASCAR Nationwide Series teams will participate in a test session Tuesday at Iowa Speedway as the track prepares to host the Get To Know Newton 250 on Sunday, May 18. Brian Scott (Richard Childress Racing #2 Chevrolet), Trevor Bayne (Roush Fenway Racing #6 Ford), Chase Elliott and Austin Theriault (JR Motorsports #9 Chevrolet), Brad Keselowski (Team Penske #22 Ford) and Sam Hornish Jr. (Team Penske #54 Toyota) will be on hand. ‘It’s basically a confirmation test for the track,’ Wayne Auton, NASCAR Nationwide Series director, said. ‘There are a couple of areas we want to look at and, if necessary, address before we get into the race week. We told the teams they can bring as many drivers as they want, but we limited them to just the five cars. There’s an open test on Friday of race week, so we believe everyone will have (adequate) track time.’ According to track officials, fans are welcome to attend Tuesday’s test, which is scheduled to run from 10am-12pm and 1-6 pm Backstretch viewing will be available.(NASCAR.com)
