“Even though I've driven quite a few cars throughout my racing career, this is going to be really fun”

While Stewart drove the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes MP4-23 at Watkins Glen International last year, fans can now “Choose Tony's Ride” during three rounds of voting hosted on the Mobil 1 Facebook page. Voting starts today and concludes Aug. 27. This special event highlights the long heritage of outstanding protection and performance provided by Mobil 1, whether used in the extreme conditions of motorsports or in everyday vehicles.

“Even though I've driven quite a few cars throughout my racing career, this is going to be really fun,” said Stewart, driver of the No. 14 Mobil 1/Office Depot Chevrolet Impala. “On the Charlotte Motor Speedway infield road course, I've never been behind the wheel of any of the four vehicles involved in the voting. I could be doing laps in anything – a racing Corvette or Camaro, a soccer-mom van or vintage tank. No matter what the fans pick, it's going to be a big difference from taking the Mobil 1 Chevy through the oval in Charlotte.”

The voting will be done in three rounds, and fans may vote once per day during each round:

• During the week of Aug. 7 to Aug. 13, the Chevy Astro minivan will face off with the M36 GMC Jackson Tank.
• From Aug. 14 to Aug. 20, fans can vote for either the Chevy Corvette Grand Sport or the Formula Drift Chevy Camaro SS.
• The winners of the two previous weeks will go head-to-head during a final round of voting from Aug. 21 to Aug. 27.

The winner will be announced during the “Choose Tony's Ride with Mobil 1” exhibition at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Aug. 28. Stewart will unveil the winning vehicle by driving it at the track.
