FOX NASCAR at MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE at Charlotte Motor Speedway Quotes & Programming Schedule FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Megan Englehart Tuesday, May 16, 2017 [email protected] FOX NASCAR AT MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE AT CHARLOTTE MOTOR SPEEDWAY QUOTES & PROGRAMMING SCHEDULE MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE, MONSTER ENERGY OPEN & NASCAR CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES Live on FS1 under the Lights Key Players Larry McReynolds & Mike Joy Recall 1992 “One Hot Night” 25 Years Later CHARLOTTE, N.C. – It’s all about the trophy and the $1 million winner’s bonus in this weekend’s MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE at Charlotte Motor Speedway, which celebrates the 25th anniversary of the iconic 1992 race dubbed “One Hot Night” this year. FOX Sports is set to offer 16 hours of live action from the 1.5-mile circuit, which, in 1992, became the first superspeedway to light the entire track. Included are FS1’s live race coverage of the MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE (Saturday, May 20 at 8:00 PM ET), the MONSTER ENERGY OPEN last-chance qualifier (Saturday, May 20 at 6:00 PM ET) and the NASCAR CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES (Friday, May 19 at 8:30 PM ET). ARCA RACING SERIES: Stock car action continues on Sunday from Ohio, when FS1 offers a delayed broadcast of the ARCA RACING SERIES race from Toledo Speedway at 5:00 PM ET. NASCAR RACE HUB: During the week, FS1’s NASCAR RACE HUB, NASCAR’s most-watched daily news and information program, continues Mondays through Thursdays at 6:00 PM ET.

During the evening, the group reflected on the night and relived their roles in the iconic event. Also on Wednesday, May 17 at 7:00 PM ET, FOX NASCAR offers a special Facebook Live red carpet show from Sherry Pollex and Martin Truex Jr.’s Catwalk for a Cause in Charlotte. Kaitlyn Vincie reports during the live stream. MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE: It wasn’t the race that put NASCAR on the map, but the 1992 MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE (then-The Winston) was the one that truly put it under the lights and in the history books. With pressure mounting on Charlotte Motor Speedway President Humpy Wheeler to maintain the non-points race’s relevance, the innovative promoter pulled off what many said couldn’t be done -- lighting a 1.5-mile track for a night race. The spectacle that unfolded in front of 130,000 fans, the largest-ever live audience to see a primetime sporting event, became one for the ages on May 16, 1992, as young guns Allison and Petty crashed after crossing the finish line. Wheeler’s enormous gamble, coupled with a unique field inversion format and riveting finish, catapulted the 1992 race into NASCAR history and validated the “One Hot Night” moniker given the race in the weeks preceding it. Below are McReynolds’ and Joy’s recollections of that night, in addition to the complete FOX Sports programming schedule from Charlotte: MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE o Date/Time: Saturday, May 20 (8:00 PM ET) o Network: FS1 o Announcers: Mike Joy, Hall of Famer and three-time champion Darrell Waltrip, four-time champ Jeff Gordon and Larry McReynolds o Pit reporters: Jamie Little, Vince Welch and Matt Yocum o Hosts: Chris Myers and Michael Waltrip o Pre-race: o NASCAR RACEDAY (7:30 PM ET on FS1), hosted by Chris Myers with analysts Darrell Waltrip and Gordon; reporters Little, Welch and Yocum Format: 70 laps - an ode to the 1992 race, dubbed “One Hot Night,” with three 20-lap segments, followed by a final 10-lap shootout MONSTER ENERGY OPEN Date/Time: Saturday, May 20 (6:00 PM ET) Network: FS1 Announcers: Mike Joy, Hall of Famer and three-time champion Darrell Waltrip, four-time champ Jeff Gordon and Larry McReynolds Pit reporters: Jamie Little, Vince Welch and Matt Yocum Hosts: Chris Myers and Michael Waltrip Format: 50 laps in three stages – 20 laps, 20 laps and 10 laps.

FOX NASCAR QUOTES How significant was the 1992 MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE to the future of NASCAR? “Seeing so large a speedway dazzle in the glow of all those lights made the '92 Winston a ‘first- time’ event that would never be forgotten. An hour after it was over, the lights were still blazing, and the grandstand still held a large crowd. Seven-time champion Richard Petty looked up at the crowd from the garage area and said to TNN's Glenn Jarrett, ‘Why are all these folks still here? Do they think we are going to go back out there and do this again?’” --Mike Joy What precipitated the move to light Charlotte Motor Speedway? What was the race lacking prior to 1992? “There were a lot of races in that area in a short amount of time. The traditional NASCAR race was 500 miles or 500 laps, and it was a little difficult to get the fans to go for the idea of seeing the same stars in a short race. The format, even with a lot of money at stake, maybe just didn’t seem compelling enough for fans who were used to getting 500 miles or 500 laps of entertainment for their ticket.” --Mike Joy You joined Roberts Yates Racing and driver Davey Allison at the beginning of the 1991 season. How did that come about and how well did you and Davey click in the beginning? “Davey had been trying to get me to go over there and work with him for a couple of years, but I wouldn’t leave the No. 26 car that I had been with since the beginning. Finally, Robert and Davey convinced me to move. There was no question, from the very beginning, how great the chemistry between Davey and I was. It didn’t take me long to realize that if we just dotted our I’s and crossed our T’s, with Davey’s talent and knowledge of the race car, we could win a lot of races and battle for some championships. Davey made my job pretty easy because his father, Bobby, made him work on his race cars growing up. He was smart and always thinking about we could do to improve. He was still climbing to the pinnacle of his career, and he was spot-on every week.” --Larry McReynolds How strong was your car in the 1992 MONSTER ENERGY ALL-STAR RACE? “All our cars at the No. 28 team had names, and that one was James Bond 007. It was our mile- and-a-half track car, and we were in contention to win with it or won every time we took it. It was the same car we won the 1991 All-Star Race with and came back the next weekend and won the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte with. In 1992, the series sponsor, Winston, had a bonus called the Winston Million. If you won three of the big four races – the Daytona 500, the Winston 500 at Talladega, the Coke 600 and the Southern 500 at Darlington – they paid a $1 million bonus. We already had won the Daytona 500 and the Winston 500, so we only had one race to go. We debated about taking that car to the All-Star Race because we knew the 600 was the next week. However, it didn’t take Robert, Davey and me but 15 seconds to decide that the next race – the All-Star Race – was the most important one, and what better test session for the Coke 600 than to run that car the week before. All our cars were fast but that one had something special.” --Larry McReynolds How do you recall the final few laps of the 1992 race? “It didn’t take me long into that final segment to figure out that we probably weren’t going to win the race. We had gotten a little bit off on our chassis adjustments, but it was part of building the notebook that we were trying to create for racing under the lights at Charlotte because we didn’t have a previous notebook for that.

Supporters are also able to start their own personal fundraising campaign on behalf of the VFW to support the thousands of troops who have returned home and face a long road to recovery. Photos of these supporters will be featured on UnitedforVeterans.org. Throughout the month of November, photos of supporters standing UNITED FOR VETERANS will also be published on the digital screens of Time Square, generating millions of impressions each Online Version: http://stage.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2012/11/vfw-larry-mcreynolds-joins-troy-polamalu-in-standing- united-for-veterans Online Version: http://stage.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2012/11/vfw-larry-mcreynolds-joins-troy-polamalu- in-standing-united-for-veterans day.
