July 23-25, 2010

Day One

Kick off an exciting three day weekend of NASCAR racing at O’Reilly Raceway Park. Spend the afternoon at the qualifying rounds to determine the starting line up for the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series AAA Insurance 200. Then sneak away for dinner at one of the local hang outs such as Green Street Eatery, Boulder Creek Dining Company or The Coachman Restaurant and Lounge.

Day Two

Hang out at the famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway and catch the afternoon practice runs of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Brickyard 400. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame Museum offers extensive history of the track, drivers and race cars.

After practice and the pole is set, head back to O’Reilly Raceway Park for the annual Kroger SpeedFest, the Kroger 200, a NASCAR Nationwide Series event. Enjoy 200 laps of bumper-to-bumper racing on the short track. What a Thrill!

Day Three

Spend the day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the culmination of this NASCAR weekend -  The Brickyard 400!
