Sirius Satellite Radio is allowing NASCAR fans to determine which driver-to-pit crew communications they want to hear each week.

The feature, called "Fan's Choice" will air on one of Sirius' 10 channels that carry driver-to-pit crew communications, but it's the fans that will be able to vote on which driver they want to hear.

Before NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series race, fans can log on to vote for their favorite driver. The driver with the most votes, gets to be aired on Sirius "Fan's Choice" channel - Sirius channel 140.

A lineup of drivers and their associated channel will be available at sirius.com/driverfeeds before each race.

Scott Riggs, driver of the #10 Valvoline/Stanley Tools Dodge Charger in the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series, has teamed up with Sirius Satellite Radio to host his very own "Riggs Report."

Sirius Satellite Radio's NASCAR Radio (ch 128) revs up the NASCAR race season live from the Daytona International Speedway with coverage of the 2007 Budweiser Shootout this weekend.

The excitement begins tomorrow, February 10th, at 4:30pm ET when Sirius delivers pre-race coverage of the exhibition (no points) event. The actual Budweiser Shootout race then begins at 8pm ET. If that's not enough, get your post-race coverage after the race until 1am ET.

Then on Sunday, February 11th, Sirius will broadcast qualifying for the Daytona 500, which leads up to the actual madness that is the Daytona 500 race on February 18th.

Just when you thought that every possible sport could be covered on satellite radio, Sirius goes ahead and signs a multi-year deal with the National Lacrosse League (NLL) making Sirius the exclusive Official Satellite Radio Partner of the NLL. A marketing agreement is also associated with this deal.

Starting today, Sirius will air the NLL "Game of the Week" show live throughout the season plus the Champion's Cup Playoffs. Sirius will also broadcast a weekly one-hour show later this season that will feature highlights, news and analysis.

The NLL coverage is exclusive to both Sirius Satellite Radio and Sirius Canada.
