ARLINGTON, Texas -- Two-time NASCAR Nextel Cup Series champion, Tony Stewart, driver of the No. 20 Home Depot Chevrolet, is scheduled to visit the Arlington Texas GM Assembly Plant on Wednesday, April 11, 2007. The focus of the plant visit is to showcase the introduction of the new Chevy Tahoe Police Package Vehicle (PPV) and for Stewart to meet and greet the 2,700 UAW Local 276 employees who build the Tahoe in Arlington.
Stewart will have the opportunity to take a trial run in the newly released Chevy Tahoe PPV and "ticket" violators he finds on the grounds of the plant. His "citations" will be 10 pair of tickets to the O'Reilly 300 at Texas Motor Speedway for the NASCAR Busch Series on Saturday, April 14, 2007 or an autographed PPV badge.
The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is one of the first law enforcement entities to take delivery of the Tahoe PPV, which was designed from its inception as a law enforcement vehicle. Escorts from the DPS will accompany Stewart on his patrol of plant property.
Stewart will also take a test drive in one of Chevy's Hybrid vehicles.
Media are invited to participate in a comprehensive plant tour scheduled from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. followed by lunch.
Stewart will begin "patrolling" the premises in a Tahoe PPV on the lookout for violators to cite with his special "tickets" at 1:30 p.m. Media members will be invited to film Stewart as he performs his "duties". An short interview period from 2:20 p.m. to 2:40 p.m. will give the media an opportunity to talk to Stewart about his impressions of the Tahoe PPV and the day's events.
A pep rally with plant employees, UAW leadership and invited VIP guests will be the final event on Stewart's schedule.
