Following the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Nashville Superspeedway on April 3rd, country music duo Steel Magnolia will perform a post-race concert.

Meghan Linsey and Joshua Scott Jones paired up as Steel Magnolia for the CMT show “Can You Duet”  and won the show’s second season. Their current hit “Keep On Lovin’ You” is the lead single off the Valentine’s Day soundtrack.

The concert will be performed on the frontstretch of the racetrack immediately following the 300 mile race and will be free to all race ticket holders.

Former open wheel driver Nelson Piquet has signed on to run in “several” ARCA Racing Series presented by RE/MAX and Menards races during the 2010 season.

Piquet already ran one race for the team at the season opening Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 at Daytona International Speedway last month. He qualified 7th for the race and finished a disappointing 27th but made up for the rough start with a 6th place finish in his first NASCAR Camping World Truck Series event the following weekend.

So far the 2010 NASCAR Nationwide Series has been rough on JR Motorsports.

IndyCar driver Danica Patrick made her stock car debut in the ARCA Racing Series presented by RE/MAX and Menards season opener at Daytona International Speedway in early February. After performing well and earning a 6th place finish, Patrick decided to try her hand behind the wheel in the Nationwide opener the following weekend.

That decision bumped fellow JR Motorsports teammate Kelly Bires out of the Daytona race since team owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. was scheduled to run in the event as well.

Key Motorsports announced today that long time sponsor Western Companies has agreed to an eight race sponsorship of the NASCAR Nationwide Series #40 team for 2010, beginning at Richmond on April 30.

"Westerman Companies have agreed to remain a partner with Key Motorsports in 2010," said Curtis Key. "We at Key Motorsports appreciate the opportunity to continue to grow and build the Westerman Companies brand through our Nationwide Series program. Their commitment to Key Motorsports has allowed steady growth throughout the entire organization and I want to thank them for their participation with our race team."
