Press ReleaseReid was one of 24 that correctly picked Jimmie Johnson to win at Bristol
Reid correctly selected Jimmie Johnson as the winner of the race at Bristol and will receive an MIS calendar and pen.
Among the 452 fans that signed up for the contest last week, Reid was one of 24 that selected Johnson as the winner. All 24 fans will be automatically entered for the grand prize drawing at the end of the season for two Victory Lane Club passes for the 2011 season, a $1,200 value.
Curtis picked Ryan Newman, who finished 16th in the race.
Overall, week 5 of the contest saw Kyle Busch as the most popular pick of the weekend with 45 selections. Mark Martin was the second-most picked driver.
“Congratulations to the 24 fans, including our weekly winner Michelle Reid, for correctly picking Jimmie Johnson,” Curtis said. “I picked Ryan Newman because he’s had some really great finishes at Bristol over the last couple of seasons. He struggled a bit last Sunday though. We’ll give it another try this weekend at Martinsville.”
MIS is hosting its weekly NASCAR pick ‘em contest at MISpeedway.com/rogerpickem. Fans have the chance to make a weekly selection on who they think will win that weekend’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race. Curtis also makes his selection on the website and discussed why he selected his driver on a weekly podcast.

Fans may also make their selection each week by mailing a 3 x 5 card with their pick and race name to Michigan International Speedway, 12626 U.S. 12, Brooklyn, MI 49230.
