The race in Fort Worth currently is scheduled for April 9, one week after the series visits Martinsville Speedway. Gossage said Fox Network officials would like TMS and Martinsville to swap dates, taking TMS out of a battle for viewers against the Masters - one of golf's biggest tournaments.
"They want to maximize TV ratings (for TMS), and that's a compliment," Gossage said. "But I do want to caution people - do not move any reservations. It's an ongoing discussion."
Gossage said a decision should be announced in "a week or two."
In any event, individual tickets for the Samsung/RadioShack 500 and the IRL IndyCar Series Bombardier 500 night race in June will go on sale at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 9.
