NASCAR Radio, the first and only 24-hour radio channel dedicated to a single sport, is XM Channel 144. "XM is thrilled to offer NASCAR fans a dedicated channel for listening to all the real-time communications between drivers and their teams for every race," said Kevin Straley, vice president of talk programming, XM Satellite Radio. "The cutting-edge FanScan broadcasts on NASCAR Radio 2 are a perfect complement to XM's original NASCAR Radio channel."
