phone CHARLOTTE, N.C. (April 29, 2010) –  NASCAR fans can now dial a single toll-free number to purchase tickets to any national series NASCAR event and the best racing in the world.

With the help of Convergys, a global leader in relationship management, fans can dial the official NASCAR directory at 1-866-GO-NASCAR (1-866-466-2722) for tickets and information to NASCAR national series events, including the NASCAR Sprint Cup, NASCAR Nationwide and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.

The toll-free number allows many NASCAR fans who attend multiple races easier access to upcoming event ticket options.
