Warren Johnson To Appear on Tuesday's Wind Tunnel
  

SUGAR HILL, GA., October 20, 2003 - Six-time NHRA Pro Stock champion Warren Johnson will be the featured guest on this Tuesday's edition of Wind Tunnel with Dave Despain, which will air from 9:00 - 10:00 p.m. (ET) on the Speed Channel.

Johnson, who has earned the title of "The Professor of Pro Stock" for the many innovations he has brought to the sport, is in the midst of another outstanding season. His four national event wins to date in 2003 bring his career total to 92, the most by any Pro Stock driver in NHRA history, and second only to John Force in all professional categories.  

This weekend, Johnson's GM Performance Parts Grand Am will take on an entirely new look, highlighting ACDelco's title sponsorship of this weekend's ACDelco Las Vegas Nationals at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Hosted by veteran motorsports broadcaster Dave Despain from the network's studios in Charlotte, NC, Wind Tunnel is a fast-paced, one-hour show which airs live four nights a week.  Blending interviews of the top names in motorsports with phone calls and e-mails from the viewers, it has quickly become one of the most popular shows in the racing community.

Viewers interested in interacting with "W.J." during this Tuesday's program are encouraged to call the show at 1-866-WTUNNEL between 9:00 - 10:00 p.m. or to e-mail their questions and comments to windtunnel@speedtv.com.
