Gaughan To Play In The Dirt at Schrader's Missouri Track on Wednesday

Brendan Gaughan will once again participate in Kenny Schrader’s annual charity dirt race next week in Pevely , Mo. , on Wednesday, July 25.

Gaughan along with NASCAR NEXTEL Cup regulars Dave Blaney, Clint Bowyer, Carl Edwards, David Gilliland, Kevin Harvick, David Reutimann, and Kenny Wallace; NASCAR Busch Series drivers Stephen Leicht, Jason Leffler and Mike Wallace; NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series veterans Rick Crawford and Ron Hornaday, Jr. and SPEED announcer Phil Parsons will compete in Dirt Modifieds for bragging rights.

“I’m going to go have some fun again this week,” Gaughan said. “I’m really glad that Schrader asked me to come back to his track this year. I had so much fun last year, but I didn’t do that great of a job. I had a car that didn’t want to race in the high groove – and you know me, the higher on the race track I am, the happier I am.

“I want to go back there and redeem myself this time around.”

This year, the celebrity drivers will compete in Dirt Modifieds in heat races as well as a feature race. The All-Star event will benefit a variety of racing charities selected by the drivers.
