SCHUMACHER HEADLINES HUGE WEEK OF WFO RADIO TOTAL MOTORSPORTS COVERAGE

HOLLYWOOD, FL (March 8, 2010) - Seven-time NHRA top fuel World Champion Tony Schumacher will headline this week's total motorsports coverage on WFO Radio when he appears on "NHRA Tuesday with Joe Castello", Tuesday night at 7 p.m. ET.  To listen live or on-demand following the show, go to http://www.wforadio.com

Schumacher appears on WFO Radio in advance of this weekend's Tire Kingdom Gatornationals in Gainesville, FL.  In 2009, Schumacher won his record sixth consecutive and seventh overall NHRA top fuel world championship.  At the NHRA World finals in Pomona, CA last November, Schumacher edged Larry Dixon by two points in the closest top fuel championship battle in NHRA history.

In addition to Schumacher, NHRA announcer Alan Reinhart will return for his regular WFO Radio NHRA Tuesday segment.  Reinhart will provide expert commentary of the NHRA Full Throttle and Lucas Oil Drag Racing series while taking listener e-mail questions live on the air.

NHRA Tuesday is only part of a jam-packed week of WFO Radio.  On Monday, Castello will break down the past weekend's motorsports action including the Carl Edwards-Brad Keselowski story in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.  Wednesday night will mark the WFO Radio debut of highly touted IndyCar Series rookie Simona de Silvestro of Switzerland.  Thursday's show will feature Formula One talk with Bob Varsha of SPEED TV and sports car coverage with American Le Mans Series driver Johnny O'Connell.

Friday and Saturday, WFO Radio will broadcast live from the NHRA Full Throttle Series Tire Kingdom Gatornationals beginning at 10 a.m. ET each day.  Guests scheduled to appear include Ashley Force Hood, Darrell Gwynn, Doug Kalitta, Melanie Troxel, Paul Lee, Jeff Arend, Allen Johnson, Rodger Brogdon, Kenny Koretsky, Matt Smith, and Angie McBride Smith.
