Homestead-Miami Speedway announced Friday that Mike Rowe, host of the Discovery Channel’s Dirty Jobs, will serve as grand marshal for the track’s Ford 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup race on Nov. 22.
Rowe will also give the command to start the engines for the final race of the Cup season.
“I've had a lot of jobs in my life but never once have been a grand marshal – never been a grand anything, actually,” Rowe said. “So I hope I can live up to the billing and give the drivers and the audience the best rendition of ‘Gentlemen, start your engines’ that they've ever heard.”
