TSN revs up for NASCAR schedule

TSN rolled out the first of its 21-race NASCAR Nextel Cup Series broadcast schedule with last Saturday's Budweiser Shootout televised entirely in hi-def. The schedule, which continues throughout most of 2005, will include sixteen more hi-def races and will finish November 20 in Miami with the Ford 400. NASCAR will also be touting its new season at the Canadian International Auto Show, kicking off this weekend at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, where it will host a NASCAR Pavilion and will run the Daytona 500 on two 42-inch plasma screens.
