SPEED will deliver an additional 30 minutes of pre-race coverage as part of the network's live and exclusive coverage of the NASCAR Craftsman Trucks Series for seven of the season's final nine events.

SPEED pit reporter Ray Dunlap will anchor the expanded coverage.

"As summer begins to fade and fall inches in, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series teams will compete in eight races over 10 weeks," Dunlap said. "During that time, our newly expanded pre-race show will take viewers inside the garage area and introduce them to the people making news. The 'chase' for the Truck Series title began back at Daytona … stay with SPEED all the way to Homestead."

Expanded pre-race coverage is now planned for the following events (all times ET and subject to change):

Race site	Date	Time
· Bristol	Aug. 23	8:30 p.m.
· New Hampshire	Sept. 16	1:30 p.m.
