NASCAR Scene to merge into enhanced NASCAR Illustrated
Street & Smith’s Sports Group today announced the merger of NASCAR Scene into an enhanced NASCAR Illustrated and plans to concentrate race and breaking news coverage of the sport on its Web site, SceneDaily.com.
Subscribers to the weekly NASCAR Scene will begin receiving the monthly NASCAR Illustrated, beginning with the 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Preview Issue in February. Current subscribers to both publications will see their subscriptions to Illustrated extended.
NASCAR Illustrated will see the addition of a number of Scene’s award-winning staffers and its most popular features as it continues to offer a unique behind-the-scenes look at the country’s most popular form of motorsports. The enhanced magazine will also add coverage of NASCAR’s Nationwide Series and Camping World Truck Series for the first time.
Full coverage of breaking news about the sport, as well race coverage, will continue on SceneDaily.com.
“We’re excited about the opportunity to offer our expanded subscriber base NASCAR Illustrated’s special look at the fun and excitement that the sport offers,” Publisher Michael J. Fresina said. “With the opening of the NASCAR Hall of Fame in spring and what should be one of the most competitive seasons ever on the track, 2010 promises to be a special year for the sport’s fans and our readers, and we’re looking forward to it.”
