Hardcore race fans visiting the Daytona International Speedway this weekend may have noticed a change in the look of the Goodyear tires used by NASACAR Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series teams. 

The design features the patriotic red, white, and blue colors, reading "Support Our Troops" on the tire's sidewall. This new design was made to say "thank you" toall United States military personnel.

Goodyear is hosting an online auction to help raise money for their Support Our Troops program.  Starting tonight, at the drop of the green flag of the Coke Zero 400, fans can start bidding on these tires.  The auction is July 3rd through July 17th.  If you would like to bid on a set of these tires go to Goodyear's webiste, www.Goodyear.com.
