Church Woos NASCAR Faithful:

A church in Manatee County [Tampa FL area] is hoping the presence of a legendary NASCAR driver's car will have people racing to its Easter Sunday service.

Bayside Community Church plans to have the late Dale Earnhardt Sr.'s black #3 Chevy available for viewing and photos [a showcar].

There's a catch.

People have to sit through a service to get a ticket to be photographed with the race car. To get the free 4-by-6-inch picture, they have to return the next weekend and sit through another service.

The nondenominational church expects to more than double its normal attendance of about 1,100. It has mailed 40,000 fliers, sent out news releases and advertised on a country radio station and at the DeSoto Speedway.

Lead pastor Randy Bezet is tying the Earnhardt car into Sunday's service. The theme: "Finishing the race of life."
