The rescheduled Prelude to the Dream on Wednesday, Sept. 9 from Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio is back on HBO
Pay-Per-View. Now known as the fifth annual Gillette Young Guns Prelude to the Dream, the all-star dirt Late Model
race returns after its June 3 date was washed out by rain.
Headlining the returning driver lineup are the Gillette Young Guns: Ryan Newman, Kasey Kahne, Carl Edwards, Clint
Bowyer, Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin and Joey Logano. All will join Tony Stewart, the two-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series
champion and owner of Eldora Speedway, in a battle for dirt supremacy that will be presented live to the entire nation
on HBO Pay-Per-View, with proceeds from the telecast going to support four military-themed charities:
-
Wounded Warrior Project
-
Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund
-
Operation Homefront
-
Fisher House
The live, commercial-free broadcast featuring 25 drivers piloting 2,300-pound dirt Late Model stock cars capable of
putting out over 800 horsepower will begin at 7 PM ET (4 PM PT), with an immediate replay and subsequent replays
throughout the week and the following weekend. HBO Pay-Per-View's racing telecast has a suggested retail price of
$24.95 and is available to more than 71 million pay-per-view homes. HBO Pay-Per-View is the leading supplier of event
programming in the pay-per-view industry.
