Other Chevy Silverado 150 Info

The Chevy Silverado 150 Nascar truck series race will be held at the Phoenix International Raceway. In the 2003 season, Kevin Harvick, although stuck in heavy traffic, held off a charging Ted Musgrave to win the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Silverado 150 at the Phoenix International Raceway. The gap between the drivers closed significantly over the last two laps around the one-mile Phoenix international speedway and evaporated as Harvick couldn't immediately clear fellow NASCAR Winston Cup Series driver Ken Schrader. The Phoenix International Raceway, since its opening in 1964 has earned a reputation as one of the top facilities for motor sports. Carved out of the Estrella mountains, the Phoenix International Raceway was intended to be a new jewel in the crown of American open wheel racing. Drivers and fans alike love the one mile paved oval and Phoenix, where tourism and natural art is as big as its auto counterparts and its western style hospitality is second to none. The weekend of Basha's supermarkets 200 also has the Nascar-Nextel series Checker Auto Parts 500 race scheduled at the Phoenix International Raceway.
