Madison, Ill. (July 15, 2010) – Returning to the Prairie State for the
second week in a row, Michael Annett and Germain Racing’s No. 15 Pilot
Travel Centers team will visit Gateway International Raceway following a
14th place finish at Chicagoland Speedway. Gateway International Raceway
is located just across the street from one of the 550 locations of Pilot
Travel Centers, primary sponsor of the No. 15 Toyota Camry. Coming back to
a track where he earned a seventh place finish in the 2009 NASCAR
Nationwide Series race, Annett is looking forward to Saturday’s
Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250.

In his fourth ever appearance on the 1.25 mile oval, Annett hopes to
repeat the success he showed there in last season’s Nationwide Series
event. As the highest finishing Raybestos Rookie of the Year candidate,
his seventh place finish in the 2009 Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250
was one of four top-10 finishes he earned in 2009 and one of his season
total of five Raybestos Rookie of the Race awards. The young driver also
has previous experience at Gateway in the NASCAR Camping World Truck
Series where he had a ninth place qualifying effort in 2008 and in the
ARCA Racing Series presented by RE/MAX and Menards where he started third
and finished sixth in 2007.

New for the 2010 season, Gateway International Raceway will now host two
NASCAR Nationwide Series events. In addition to this weekend’s
Missouri-Illinois Dodge Dealers 250, the Madison Ill. track will also
present a second 250 mile Nationwide Series race on October 23 replacing
Memphis Motorsports Park on the schedule. October’s event at Gateway
will be a stand-alone race for the Nationwide Series as this weekend’s
race activity will be combined with the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.

In addition to his time on the track, Annett will also participate in some
fan friendly activities leading into Saturday’s race. On Friday, Annett
will sign autographs with fellow Nationwide Series and Camping World Truck
Series drivers for Gateway International Raceway season ticket holders on
pit road from 3:15-4:45 p.m. CT. The Germain Racing driver will also
compete in the annual driver/media water balloon toss. As the returning
champion in this fun yearly event, Annett looks to reclaim his event
winning title on Saturday.

Track activity for the Nationwide Series at Gateway International Raceway
begins on Saturday with practice from 10-11:15 a.m. and final practice
from 11:45 a.m. until 1 p.m. Nationwide Series qualifying kicks off at
4:35 p.m. and the green flag waves for the start of the Missouri-Illinois
Dodge Dealers 250 at 8 p.m. A live broadcast of qualifying airs at 4:30
p.m. and live race coverage begins at 8 p.m. on ESPN 2. All times are ET.
