From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
NASCAR RaceDay is a pre-race show on Speed Channel. Hosted by John Roberts, the show features driver/analysts Kenny Wallace and Jimmy Spencer, as well as pit reporter Wendy Venturini who provide news from the track right before each weekend’s race. Roberts, Wallace & Spencer along with Bob Dillner are also part of the post race show NASCAR Victory Lane.
The show replaced the recently cancelled NASCAR 2Day, that had aired on ESPN until the end of the 2000, racing season when NASCAR began a new television contract. The original name of the show was NASCAR This Morning, and it aired on Fox Sports Net from 2001 to 2004 from a studio in Charlotte, North Carolina. During the 2004 Chase for the Nextel Cup, some segments were broadcast from the site of that week's race with Steve Byrnes serving as co-host. In 2005, the program was moved to Speed Channel and the entire broadcast was sent to the race site. The show became NASCAR RaceDay in 2006.
