Hello my friend


In 1996, International Speedway Corporation began exploring the
idea of building a track in the Midwest. Bonds were sold in 1998
and construction on the 1.5-mile tri-oval began a year later.

Tickets for the 2001 season went on sale on Aug. 17, 2000,
and within a week, nearly 80 percent of the season tickets
had been sold. Paving on the track begin in September of that
year and construction was completed in the spring of 2001.

Jeff Gordon won the first two Cup events there,
starting with the inaugural race on Sept.30, 2001.
______________________________________________________
Soldiers from the U.S. Army Special Operations Command
will thrill race fans with a daring pre-race demonstration
prior to the start of the Camping World RV 400 presented
by Coleman at Kansas Speedway on September 28, 2008.

NASCAR fans will get a first hand and up-close look at a
Special Operations infiltration demonstration, including
a high-altitude, low-opening (HALO) parachute jump by the U.S.
Army Special Operations Command’s Black Daggers.

Also, the official Ford Fusion pace car is going on a special
“ride” as part of the pre-race demonstration. It will be
airlifted and then offloaded onto the track by an MH-47 Chinook
helicopter from the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne).

Following the pace car “delivery”, eight Special Forces Soldiers
will fly into action on two MH-6 Little Bird helicopters for a
simulated tactical infiltration.

Here are some fun Race Track Facts



#1 Throughout a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series weekend at Kansas Speedway,
Americrown, who handles all concessions, catering and merchandise
for the track, sells more than 31,600 gallons of soda. How far could
a NASCAR stock car go on 31,600 gallons of fuel? It could circle
the earth 16 times before it had to make a pit stop. That's 129,272
laps around the 1.5-mile Kansas Speedway.
________________________________________________________
#2 Race fans eat 14,504 hot dogs on a typical race weekend at the track.
That's enough wieners to cover 437 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup stock cars from
nose to tail.
________________________________________________________
#3 About 25,000 hamburgers, which equals about 6,615 pounds, are
eaten over the course of the weekend. That much meat adds up to
49 Mark Martins, the lightest driver on the NEXTEL Cup circuit
at 135 pounds.
_________________________________________________________
#4 Around 26,203 gallons of beer is sold. That's enough to fill a
NASCAR NEXTEL Cup stock car gas tank 1,191 times.
_________________________________________________________
#5 Nearly 250 yards of bratwurst are sold.
_________________________________________________________
#6 About 23,200 orders of French fries are sold.

Have a great weekend!!!

Hello my friend



The Allstate 400 at The Brickyard, introduced as the Brickyard 400
in 1994, is an annual 400-mile NASCAR Sprint Cup points race held
at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Speedway, Indiana. The event,
when first held in 1994, marked the first race other than the
Indianapolis 500 to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway
since 1916. Since the inaugural race, the Allstate 400 has become
NASCAR's most-attended event, drawing an estimated crowd of more
than 250,000 fans annually. It also has become NASCAR's second
highest paying race in dollars (behind the Daytona 500).

The term "Brickyard" is in reference to the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway's nickname. The course was paved in brick in 1909, and
they remain under the asphalt pavement to this day,with 3 feet
for the entire width of the track at the start/finish line.

Several NASCAR teams were invited to a one-day test session
at the speedway by track president Tony George in 1993, and
the inaugural Brickyard 400 was held one year later.In 1994.
Which Jeff Gordon won and Dale Earnhardt won in 1995

There are 14 races left in this 2008 Nationwide Series season,
but we could possibly know who the champion will be when the
checkered flag flies Saturday in the Kroger 200 at O'Reilly
Raceway Park.In seven of the past 11 the winner at ORP has
gone on to win the series title that same season.

While Indianapolis Motor Speedway is the most popular racetrack
in the Hoosier State, the vast majority of motorsports events
held in Indianapolis are held at O'Reilly Raceway Park,
including a NW Series race and a Craftsman Truck race.
