Speed, Sirius/XM Radio and GoDaddy.com will start carrying the event at 11 a.m. EST.
Other participants will be co-owner and crew chief Tony Eury Jr., director of competition and crew chief Tony Eury Sr., and driver of the No. 88 Chevrolet, Kelly Bires. Twenty JR Nation fan club members also will have the opportunity to ask questions.
“To be able to attract this much attention to our facility around the Christmas holiday is especially rewarding, because we feel our company has a lot to offer the race community as well as corporate America,” said Kelley Earnhardt, co-owner and general manager of JR Motorsports. “We appreciate what Speed, GoDaddy.com and Sirius/XM Radio [are] doing to bring JR Motorsports to the fans, and we appreciate the NASCAR media for its coverage of our company. We feel like our 2010 lineup with Danica Patrick and Kelly Bires is unique, and we simply want to bring all the key players together to talk about it. We all are looking forward to it.”
