SIRIUS radio personality Dave Moody has been named the official starter of the Polar Bear 150 at Rockingham Speedway on New Year’s Day.
Moody, the host of “SIRIUS Speedway” and the lead announcer for MRN’s NASCAR race broadcasts, will wave the green flag for the first race of the 2010 season. The track’s owner, Andy Hillenburg, chose Moody for the honor. “The Polar Bear 150 is grassroots racing at its best, and I'm proud to be a part of it,” Moody said. “I just hope I don't drop the flag.”
