Nascar is "IN"
Nascar fans are pumped up after the exciting finish at the Daytona 500 yesterday. Trevor Kayne, barely 20, took the win in what was only his 2nd Sprint Cup Race! The icing on the cake is that he is a Knoxville boy. People who don't even like Nascar are really feeling good about this success story; Kayne seems to be such a likeable young man, and that makes it even better. You can read more about him here.
Crowds of fans
Just speculating, it would appear that there will be a big crowd at this event, which is free to fans. The festivities start at 4:00 p.m. on March 18, 2011, in the Bristol Motor Speedway Hospitality Area. Last year, over 20,000 fans attended, hoping to see some of Nascar's favorite drivers.
So, who will be there?
According to Speedway Digest, fans can look for:
- Jimmie Johnson
- Elliott Sadler
- Clint Bowyer
- Marcos Ambrose
- David Reutimann
- Kasey Kahne
- Kenny Francis
- Tony Stewart
- Darian Grubb
- Brad Keselowski
- Paul Wolfe
- Matt Kenseth
- Jeff Burton
- Brian Vickers
- A.J. Allmendinger
- David Ragan.
There will be different activities throughout the evening in which the drivers will participate, and not all drivers will participate in the question and answer sessions.
Lots of fun!
Food City Race Night will have various drivers signing autographs, show cars on display, simulators and souvenir trailers. Fans can look forward to live entertainment and free food sampling, too!
