Ronnie
Mund, also known as “Ronnie the Limo Driver” from “The Howard Stern Show” on
SiriusXM, has been selected to drive the Chevrolet Silverado pace truck for the
1-800-Car-Cash Mud Summer Classic NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race
Wednesday night at Eldora Speedway.
“I
was blown away when I got the invite,” Mund said. “I’m so excited and
especially honored that it is at Tony’s (Stewart) track. I can’t wait to
experience the legendary Eldora and an event that is becoming a must-see event
for NASCAR fans.”
Mund
has worked with Stern since 1985. He will work with Stern on Wednesday morning
and then fly to Ohio for the race.
“This
is a dream come true for Ronnie,” said Roger Slack, general manager of Eldora.
“He is a huge NASCAR fan, a big fan of what we do here at Eldora and we’re
pumped to have him drive the Chevrolet Silverado pace truck outfitted with
SiriusXM in the 1-800-Car-Cash Mud Summer Classic.”
The
150-lap Truck Series race is contested in 60-50-40 lap segments. As is
dirt-track tradition, the starting field is set by five qualifying heat races.
For
the third straight year, the American Legion Post 648 Honor Guard from St.
Henry, Ohio , will present the colors of the United States and the St. Henry
(Ohio) High School marching band will perform the National Anthem.
