Tony Stewart will host the fourth annual Prelude To The Dream charity event Wednesday June 4, 2008 at his famed Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio.
A star studded field of NASCAR drivers are scheduled to compete in the thirty lap feature race including Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, Jeff Gordon, Carl Edwards, Kyle Petty, Jimmie Johnson, Kevin Harvick and Kasey Kahne among others.
The race raised some $800,000 last year and Stewart says his goal is to raise $1 million for charity from tomorrow night's dirt track gala, with proceeds benefitting the Victory Junction Gang Camp in North Carolina. Last year's Prelude To The Dream was a memorable one with an exciting last lap duel between Carl Edwards and Jeff Gordon with Edwards taking the win. For those hardcore race fans unable to make the trip, The Prelude To The Dream race will be televised live on HBO Pay-Per-View.
