TUMS "Chowdah" Challenge at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway (NASCAR)

Are you a fan of NASCAR? How about that great New England favorite, clam chowder? Yes to both? Well you're in luck! The New Hampshire Motor Speedway is hosting it's first ever TUMS "Chowdah" Challenge!

Original recipes for the best homemade clam chowder are being accepted until 12:00 Noon on September 15th (yikes tomorrow!) and then 5 finalists will be selected to compete in a live cook off on September 19, 2010 at the track. Judging will be done by Michael Waltrip, NASCAR driver, Jimmy Spencer, former driver and current SPEED analyst, and Levy Restaurants Area Chef Sam Carlsen. Rumor has it, NASCAR driver David Reutimann also will be on hand.

Prizes for you NASCAR fans are pretty fantastic as well. The grand prize entry will be named the Official Clam Chowder of New Hampshire Speedway for the 2011 season, and will be featured around the track. The winner will also receive two club tickets for the Sylvania 300 on September 19, 2010; $750 Visa gift card; an official chef coat from New Hampshire Motor Speedway/ Levy Restaurant; a behind the scenes tour of the pit and much much more!

The remaining finalists win some great stuff too! Their prizes include:
