HAMPTON, Ga. - Is there any sweeter sound than the revving of engines coming from the start line at Atlanta Motor Speedway?
For our money, the answer is no — and that’s why we spent the morning in Hampton, celebrating the return of NASCAR weekend to the storied racing venue!
It’s a big day at AMS, as qualifying begins for the Fr8 208 (NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series) and Bennett 250 (NASCAR Xfinity Series). Both races are happening in an action-packed double-header tomorrow, with the Fr8 Racing 208 starting at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, followed by the Bennett Transportation and Logistics 250 three-and-a-half hours later.
Fan events at Atlanta Motor Speedway
Multiple events are planned for fans this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway before the Ambetter Health 400. Good Day Atlanta's Paul Milliken has a sneak peek.
The weekend’s marquee event takes over the track on Sunday, as the biggest stars of the NASCAR Cup Series compete in the Ambetter Health 400, which begins at 3 p.m. and will also be broadcast right here on FOX.
Of course, it wouldn’t be Spring NASCAR Weekend at AMS without entertainment overload in the Fan Zone. Attractions this year include axe throwing with American Axes and performances by The Canine Stars Stunt Dog Show and the Sea Lion Splash Show.
