NASCAR WCUP: Jeff Green to do double duty on Brickyard weekend

Jeff Green will do double duty on Brickyard 400 weekend, running his Busch Series car at Indianapolis Raceway Park on Saturday, Aug. 4, the same day as qualifying takes place at the Speedway.

"The schedules are working out for us," he said July 17 at the Speedway test. "We're going to have to miss a little bit of practice on each side of the fence. But hopefully what we do today will help that. We'll be able to come in here, make a few laps and qualify the thing and have it ready for Happy Hour.

"(For the Busch race), we'll have to helicopter back. It's a pretty easy deal. You get out and practice, qualify and race the same setup."
