The Las Vegas Motor Speedway (pictured) will become the 3rd largest city in Nevada, as it will host 2 series within Nascar, this weekend.Nascar weekend is the biggest single sporting event in Nevada, and brings in millions for the state, and Las Vegas.
The speedway with host the Sam's Town 300, Nationwide Series race on Saturday. Also on Sunday, Sprint Cup Series' Shelby 427.
Nascar's Camping World Truck Series will be make its stop here in Las Vegas, later this year on September 26.
My condo complex is close to the speedway. I'm a couple miles away from the track. The Speedway has it own exit off I-15, but it is officially located on Las Vegas Blvd, across from Nellis Air Force Base.
I'm a fan of Hendrick Motorsports drivers, Jeff Gordon, and Jimmie Johnson. I'm warming up to Mark Martin who is a class act and man on and off the tracks of Nascar. I will never sell out and support a corporate tool, like Dale Earnhardt, Jr.
Jimmie Johnson has won the race here in Vegas twice, and both Mark Martin, and Jeff Gordon have won it once. All are among the top picks for this race.
Many events are planned around the valley leading up to the race. For examples - the Hauler Parade, Race Jam at the Fremont Street Experance, Driver Apperances, a Speedway Children's Charities Track Walk, and many more.
