HAMPTON — While Sunday’s Quaker State 400 Available at Walmart NASCAR Cup is the premier event this week at Atlanta Motor Speedway, there’s plenty of other entertainment this week for race fans — and even non-race fans.
“With a week-long lineup of fun and entertainment throughout the week, there’s something for everyone — including some free events and activities anyone can participate in,” said AMS Executive Vice President and General Manager Brandon Hutchison said.
Here’s a rundown of some of the entertainment:
The Atlanta Motor Speedway Camper Bike Ride is tonight.
Campers are invited to bring their bikes and take a joyride lap around the 1.54-mile quad oval. Riders will meet at Gate 15 of the speedway at 8:30 p.m. to participate.
Racing action begins on Thursday with the Sunbelt Rentals Legends All-Star Race. Eight divisions will compete with an opportunity to advance to the All Star Features.
Winners will be recognized on the pre-race stage prior to Sunday’s race.
Grandstand gates open at 6 p.m. and admission is free for the Legends races.
The free Pit Boss Grills Available at Walmart Camper Appreciation Party will be in the Bootleggers Bar on the concourse.
America’s Crew Chief Larry McReynolds is scheduled to appear and participate in a Q&A at 6:15 p.m.
There will be door prizes, free hamburgers and hot dogs, and free beer while supplies last.
The event begins at 6 p.m.
Fans and campers can access Bootleggers via Gate 15 while infield campers can utilize the pedestrian tunnel.
Following the Camper Appreciation Party, fans can take to the high banks and support local children’s causes during Speedway Children’s Charities’ Laps for Charity.
With a donation to SCC Atlanta, participants get to drive their own cars on the track, with proceeds ultimately going to organizations that help kids in need.
