Sock-It-To-Me Cake

1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1/2 cup Crisco Oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
4 large eggs

For Filling:
1 cup chopped pecans
2tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  In a large bowl, blend cake mix sour cream, oil, 1/4 cup sugar, water and eggs.  Beat at high speed for 2 minutes.  Pour 2/3 of the batter in a greased and floured 10-inch tube pan or fluted pan.  Combine filling ingredients and sprinkle over batter in pan.  Spread remaining batter evenly over filling mixture in pan.  Bake at 375 degrees for 45-55 minutes, or until cake springs back when touched lightly.  Cool right side up for about 25 minutes, then remove cake from pan.
Glaze: Blend 1 cup confectioners sugar and 2 tablespoons milk.  Drizzle over cake.
