July 25, 2000; Slinger, WI - NASCAR Winston Cup and Busch Grand National driver Kenny Wallace has been added to the impressive list of drivers scheduled to compete in the 21st Annual Miller Lite Nationals Sunday July 30th at the Slinger Super Speedway.

Wallace joins Dick Trickle, Rich Bickle, Ken Schrader, and Jason Schuler as visiting NASCAR stars set to challenge top late model drivers such as Conrad Morgan, Lowell Bennett, Brad Mueller and other top area late model drivers that will vie for the Larry Detjens Memorial Trophy and Miller Lite Nationals title in the 200 lap late model main event.

NASCAR Winston Cup Rookie-of-the-Year point leader and 1994 Miller Lite Nationals champion Matt Kenseth will also be on hand to sign autographs. Kenseth, who finished fifth in the Pennsylvania 500 at Pocono last Sunday, makes his first appearance at a Wisconsin race track since becoming the first rookie to win the Coca-Cola 600 last May.

Wallace, who currently drives the Square D #55 Chevrolet on the Winston Cup circuit and the #25 Lance Snacks Chevrolet in selected Busch Grand National events, last competed in the Miller Lite Nationals in 1996 and is seeking his first Nationals title. Wallace enters the Nationals competition coming off a 21st place finish at Pocono last Sunday and has eight BGN wins and eight Winston Cup pole positions to his credit.

Trickle, whose 1200 plus race wins in nearly 40 years of competition has earned him the title of the "Winningest Stock Car Driver in America," will be looking for his record-setting fifth Nationals title, having one the prestigious event in 1982, 1983, 1985, and 1989. Trickle finished 14th in the Busch Grand National event at Pikes Peak International Raceway last Saturday.

Bickle, a two-time Slinger Speedway track champion with over 230 career short track main event victories, is seeking his third Nationals crown after capturing the event in 1992 and 1996. Bickle finished 11th while relief driving at Pocono for Terry Labonte and plans on entering the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis in August..

Schuler is in the middle of his first year of competition the NASCAR Busch Grand Nationals Series, running 12 races for the team owned by popular Wisconsin racer Robbie Reiser. Schuler was named "Most Popular Driver" in the NASCAR RE/MAX Challenge Series the last two years and like Wallace, is looking for his first Nationals title which would place him amidst the likes of Alan Kulwicki, Mark Martin, Butch Miller, and Joe Shear as past Nationals Champions.

While Schrader is a native of Fenton Missouri, he has logged many laps on Wisconsin short tracks and has scored a Nationals feature victory at Slinger. Schrader was the NASCAR Winston Cup Rookie of the Year in 1985 and has won races in stock cars, sprints and midgets.
