FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — IndyCar's rescheduled race at Texas Motor Speedway will have a few perks and some reduced prices.
The track announced plans for the resumption of the Firestone 600 on Thursday. The race will restart Aug. 27. It was initially postponed a day in June and then halted because of more rain after 71 of 248 laps.
In an effort to lure fans back, track officials are providing a driver autograph session, $1 hot dogs and drinks, free vintage IndyCar T-shirts and reduced pricing for general admission tickets on the front-stretch.
Also, anyone who purchases a ticket to the NASCAR race at Texas will get a free ticket to the IndyCar race.
