Top Qualifier Will Go Head-to-Head Against Tony Stewart

Center Line, Mich. - For those who have ever watched an open wheel racing 
event and thought "I can do that," Mopar presents an opportunity to back up their 
claim. On November 2-3 the Mopar Virtual Dirt Track Challenge will take place 
during the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show at the Las 
Vegas Convention Center. 

SEMA show attendees will have an opportunity to go head-to-head against 
themselves and NASCAR® champion Tony Stewart in the Mopar Virtual Dirt Track 
Challenge. Competitors inside the cockpit of the No. 20 or No. 21 Mopar sprint cars 
will take on the high-banks of the famed Eldora Speedway, courtesy of the 
Ratbag World of Outlaws Sprintcars game. 

Qualifying for the Mopar Virtual Dirt Track Challenge will begin at 9 a.m. 
PST on Tuesday, November 2, and continue through the show's close at 5 p.m. that 
evening. Time trials will resume at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, November 3, and 
conclude at 12:30 p.m. Competitors are allowed one qualification attempt per 
day. The top eight qualifiers will be placed in a tournament bracket that will 
feature single eliminations, and the eventual winner will face Stewart in the 
final round. The bracket elimination round is scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m., 
and the final round is scheduled for 2 p.m. 

If Stewart's opponent is able to defeat him in the final round, he or she 
will win his or her choice of an all-inclusive trip for two to either the Chili 
Bowl in Tulsa, Okla., USAC's Copper World Classic in Phoenix, Ariz., or the 
NHRA Winternationals in Pomona, Calif. If Stewart is victorious, his opponent 
will receive a Playstation 2 game system, courtesy of Mopar. Each of the top 
eight qualifiers will receive a "MoPowered" T-shirt, and the top qualifier will 
also receive a Mopar hat. 

Mopar's display for the SEMA show is located at booth No. 42327 at the Las 
Vegas Convention Center. Participants are responsible for their timeliness 
during the qualifying and final rounds. Any final round participant who is absent 
during the designated time of competition forfeits his or her opportunity to 
compete.
