Days of Thunder.

Today's news from the intersection of sports and religion is that the Church of Scientology is going to sponsor a NASCAR team:

Kenton Gray, a 35-year-old Californian, will attempt to make the field for a late model race Saturday night at Irwindale (Calif.) Speedway. His No. 27 Ford Taurus will be sponsored by Bridge Publications, which publishes Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard's bestseller "Dianetics."

The hood of the car will say "Dianetics" on it, along with a volcano to mimic the book cover.

Reached for comment, NASCAR said, "Is their money green?"
