Guests can conquer the track Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m.-5 p.m.

Days leading up to the free weekend events, fans should keep their eyes on the roads for the SHIFT_2Nissan team members. As an added bonus, all guests who obtain SHIFT_2Nissan passes--distributed at select locations throughout the cities by team members and on-site at each venue--can register for a chance to win a one-year lease on an all-new 2007 Nissan Sentra. Guests can also register at www.shift2nissan.com for a chance to win a one-year lease on an all-new 2007 Nissan Sentra. The winner of the one-year lease will be chosen and notified at the end of the SHIFT_2Nissan tour in 2007.

The ride accelerates during the SHIFT_2Nissan tour when national recording artists Jody Raffoul, Jessica Andrews and Jeff Austin Black fuel the event with live performances on Saturday and Sunday evenings. Before the headliners take the stage, each stop on the tour also showcases a local musical flair as eight local bands--chosen through online submissions and voting before the tour begins in each city - compete in the SHIFT_2Nissan Battle of the Bands competition. All eight bands from each city may also have the opportunity to have their music heard on XM Satellite Radio. Two bands from each city will then proceed to the finals round where one band is ultimately chosen the Battle of the Bands Champion when the tour culminates in April 2007.

Hosted by DJ Xclusive from XM Satellite Radio, the music kicks off at 2 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays with the Battle of the Bands competition (2 p.m.-4 p.m.) followed by performances from the national headliners (4 p.m.-6 p.m.).
