The Kentucky Speedway says it will have multiple cool zones, and extra supplies of ice and water available throughout the venue this week as NASCAR events get underway.
Fans are expected at the Northern Kentucky track June 28-30. “We are taking every measure to ensure our fans enjoy great racing when we take the NASCAR spotlight this weekend,” Kentucky Speedway General Manager Mark Simendinger said.
