Keselowski, Harvick Lead NNS Practice at Gateway

July 17, 2010

MADISON, Ill. - It's going to be a true double feature at Gateway International Raceway with last night's postponed CampingWorld.com 200 underway right now and the Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250 scheduled to start at 7.

NASCAR Nationwide Series practice wrapped up at Noon with GIR qualifying record holder Brad Keselowski leading the first practice with a speed of 133.960 mph. Two-time race winner Kevin Harvick, today's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series polesitter, had the fast lap in Happy Hour with a speed of 134.312 mph. Harvick turned over the reins of his No. 33 machine to Austin Dillon to give the young driver some seat time.

Today's schedule for Nationwide activity remains the same with qualifying set to start at 3:35.

Tickets for both races will be honored today, but fans will be seated based on the event they purchased. If a fan bought a CampingWorld.com 200 ticket, they can stay for tonight's Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250, but will have to allow the seat holder for that race to have the seat. The same is in effect for today's NCWTS race in regards to NNS ticketholders.
