Many NASCAR Winston Cup Series and NASCAR Busch Series drivers are expected to participate in the auction which affords race fans the opportunity to bid for a chance to meet their favourite racers during pre-race driver introductions. The winning bidders on NASCAR Winston Cup Series drivers will ride along with them in an open convertible during the pre-race parade lap prior to the UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday, March 2. Winning bidders on NASCAR Busch Series competitors will have the opportunity to meet their drivers in the pit area prior to the start of the Sam's Town 300 on Saturday, March 1.
