Super Special Optional Evening Event

NASCAR Hall of Fame Race Night - Friday evening
Don’t miss the opportunity to join the group for Race Night at the NASCAR Hall of Fame - this is a really fun place and rarely available. We sent local urologist, Dr. Pierce Irby, to investigate and his expectations were blown away! The evening includes exclusive use of many uniquely fun activities & games in our private group area that can be played as you are moving about while enjoying various NC authentic food stations and drinks. The food is excellent! Interactive games include those super-cool race car simulators and pit challenge experiences! You can also explore the hundreds of artifacts and exhibits. It is such a great time and everybody always enjoys the high energy atmosphere. We plan to have heat races in the Race Simulators…where you can race in individual sessions. We then select the top 10 “Fastest Qualifying” drivers who would be eligible for the Kimbrough 400 Championship Race! Watch the final race as we crown the “winner take all” and award other categories. Cost of $55 includes transportation, dinner, entrance fee and hosted bar.
