The Inaugural XM Satellite Radio Speedjam™ On March 24, 2007

XM Satellite Radio SpeedJam™

With all of the exciting things to do in South Florida, it's often hard to choose between a sporting event, a concert, hitting an upscale club, going out for great food, or taking a family outing.

For one day, on Saturday, March 24, Homestead-Miami Speedway and XM Satellite Radio have an easy solution to this often difficult decision: attend the first ever XM Satellite Radio SpeedJam™ and you can have it all. This unique, exciting, and affordable event blends multiple entertainment components and truly provides something for everyone at an affordable cost, in one convenient location.

XM Satellite Radio SpeedJam™ will offer some serious high-speed racing, with three exciting races. The day will start with the IndyPro™ Series Miami 100, featuring some very talented up-and-coming drivers. The Rolex Sports Car Series Linder Industrial Komatsu Grand Prix of Miami is up next where drivers such as South Florida residents Christian Fittipaldi and Osvaldo Negri will race Daytona prototypes made by BMW, Lexus, Porsche, and Ferrari on Homestead-Miami Speedway's 2.3 mile, 11-turn road course.

Later that night, the XM Satellite Radio Indy 300 will feature the stars of the IRL IndyCar® Series, including 2006 champion Sam Hornish Jr., hometown heroes Helio Castroneves and Tony Kanaan, female racing sensations Sarah Fisher and Danica Patrick, and 2006 Bombardier Rookie of the Year Marco Andretti, who will kick off the racing season at speeds of nearly 220 miles-per-hour on the Speedway's 18 to 20-degree, variable banking. For the first time in the history of the IndyCar® Series, the season will open with a night race held under the lights, promising fans even more excitement than ever before.

Get ready to rock in between races, when world-famous band JET takes the stage in one of their first concerts back in the U.S. after performing throughout Japan, Italy, the UK, Spain and Germany. JET has toured with the Rolling Stones and Oasis, and has sold over 3.5 million copies of their debut album Get Born. They are best known for their hit single "Are You Gonna Be My Girl," which has been featured everywhere from Apple Ipod commercials to the Madden NFL 2004 video game. The band released a new album called Shine On late last year and will showcase these songs and others in a concert before the Indy 300.
