In celebration of the 10th edition of Speedway Christmas presented by Cook Out, Charlotte Motor Speedway will offer special discounts to fans as a "thank you" on Friday's opening night of the drive-through lights extravaganza.
America's Home for Racing rolls into Speedway Christmas offering family-friendly pricing - including $10-per car-admission, $5 photos with Santa, $5 unlimited wristbands for kids rides and $1 menu items and $1 craft beer.
Santa will officially open the 10th edition kick-off spectacle alongside Lug Nut, the world's fastest mascot, with some holiday help from local car clubs. Christmas-themed cars from the Harrisburg Cruisers and East Coast Cruisers will lead the way for Santa. Gates for Speedway Christmas presented by Cook Out will open at 6 p.m. The classic cars will be on display on pit road for fans to enjoy until 7 p.m.
Fans will receive an early Christmas present at 7:30 p.m., when fireworks illuminate the sky. Immediately following the sparkling display, the first of the WJZY FOX 46 Movie Nights will begin with a showing of "Elf" presented by AutoBell. Movie nights throughout the show total 28 featuring holiday classics every Thursday through Sunday.
