You Can Do Two Free Laps Around Talladega If You Get The Vaccine
Quote:
Talladega Superspeedway is probably the most iconic NASCAR track there is, with some apologies to Daytona. On Saturday, you can drive two laps on it, in your own car, and for free, as long as you get the vaccine and/or a Covid test. The tests and vaccines are free, too.
Drivers have to be at least 19 years old, must be in cars registered in their name, they must have insurance, and they must sign a consent waiver for the track. Drivers between the ages of 16 and 18 can also participate, though they must have at least one parent or legal guardian in the car with them, in addition to completing a minor release form.
The laps also won’t be at NASCAR speeds, as Talladega says drivers will follow a pace car going “highway speed.” Still, this is the chance to do two laps on a 2.66 mile track with up to 33-degrees of banking on turns. The event will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. central time at the track, located in Lincoln, Alabama, and you don’t need to pre-register.
