NASCAR offers free Daytona 500 preview on iTunes
NASCAR has made a free preview of Sunday’s Daytona 500 available on Apple’s iTunes Music Store. The 20-minute video “takes you inside the world of NASCAR and the Daytona 500 in a way that’s never before been experienced,” according to the description. Interestingly, the preview is listed under a new iTunes section called “NASCAR 2006 Races,” hinting that this season’s race events could also be offered on iTunes.
“‘NASCAR Daytona 500 Preview’ delivers something for everyone. You’ll see never-before-seen footage from full-restored historical film to a first-hand look at the 2006 Daytona 500 test cars. You’ll watch exclusive interviews of veterans and rookies as they look ahead to the upcoming season. You’ll go on the track and inside the garage, where you’ll see and hear behind-the-scenes sounds from drivers and crew chiefs. And you’ll relive some of the greatest triumphs and tragedies in the host of ‘The Great American Race.’”

“NASCAR 2006 Races”... Just what I need on my player: 300mb worth of guys turning left.

At least they have the skill to turn left while going exceptionally fast—as opposed to drag racing, where they don’t even need a steering wheel.
I find this an incredibly AWESOME addition to iTunes. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to put it on your iPod.
