Kevin Conway will attempt to run all three NASCAR national touring series races this weekend at Phoenix International Raceway, with sponsorship from ExtenZe in all three endeavors.

Conway will attempt to make the NASCAR Sprint Cup race driving a second TRG Motorsports entry. He will drive the No. 26 R3 Motorsports entry in the Nationwide race and will attempt to make the field for the Camping World Truck Series race in the No. 71 R3 Motorsports entry. Only the Nationwide entry is locked in by virtue of owners points, meaning Conway will have to qualify based on speed for the other races.

Conway has never raced at Phoenix International Raceway nor has he attempted to compete in all three divisions in one weekend. He is attempting to become the first driver to make his Cup and Truck series debuts in the same weekend.

“I’ve never been accused of doing things normally,” Conway said. “To make my Sprint Cup Series and Camping World Truck Series debut at a track that I have never even seen is pretty ambitious, but I am excited to have this opportunity with ExtenZe. For ExtenZe Racing to pull this together in such a short amount of time is nothing short of a miracle."

ExtenZe will appear as Conway’s primary sponsor in all three races.

Financial terms of the sponsorship were not disclosed.

DNQ in Cup, Struggle to a top-20 in NW, and probably the same in Trucks.

Can't believe all the naysayers out there..growup...Conway has proved he can drive, he FINISHES races, misses wrecks (that others can't) he never gets the press he deserves as a driver. NASCAR has ExtenZe on their banned list apparently..The product is no different than Viagara...they seemed to welcome Mark with that sponsor. They should be sucking up to any potential sponsor in the economic times we are facing..DUH!! What is the matter with people? "GO TEAM EXTENZE"

The sponsor wouldn't spend millions on Conway if they didn't see his talent! He's a new driver, give him a break! He has definitely shown he can drive. I agree with Misbehaven, he definitely misses wrecks that others cannot! I wish them the best of luck!!!

Tough to complain about a new team that is bringing outside money to the sport-It isn't even Daddy's money-20th is better than many of the experienced names that he competes against - Misses wrecks - That is a new concept in NASCAR- By the way how has Dale Jr. been finishing--

It seems a better invsment for Extenze would be to hire Lorana Bobbitt for a spokeswoman

Have any of you ever looked into Jimmy Johnson's Nationwide record, not so great, but look at him now! Remember, racing is a team effort and you are only as good as the team supporting you. What do we have to lose supporting this kid?
