Auto Club Speedway 2008 Party Zone Lineup announced

Auto Club Speedway announced the tentative list of NASCAR drivers scheduled to attend the Party Zone during the 2008 Auto Club 500 weekend.  Drivers Kurt Busch, David Gilliland, Travis Kvapil, Mike Skinner and Brian Vickers are scheduled to participate in brief question and answer sessions with guests in attendance on either Saturday, February 23 or Sunday, February 24. 

The Party Zone is located on the west side of the Opportunity, California FanZone near gate 16.  The location has access to Wolfgang Puck’s Apex restaurant, the concert stage, Impulse - the Speedway’s full service retail store - and shade and lounge features. The location also provides easy access for all Auto Club Speedway guests, including CSC members, season ticket holders, camping area guests and individual ticket holders. 

Admission to the Party Zone will continue to include a pit pass for each day the hospitality area is purchased and the location provides easy access to pit road through the tunnel at Gate 18.

Since its inception in 2003, the Party Zone has grown into the best place for race fans to hang out prior to all NASCAR races at Auto Club Speedway.  This fan hospitality area offers driver appearances, great live music, food and beverage service, games and souvenirs in a fun, festive atmosphere.   Musical performances include Pam Lyn King and the Royal Ruckus (Saturday) and the 454s (Sunday).

Party Zone guests must also have a valid grandstand ticket or infield wristband to enter the hospitality area.  To get to the Party Zone, use the accessible bridge near Lot 11 or take advantage of Auto Club Speedway’s free Guest Service trams.  Guests must park in general parking lots.

This hospitality area opens at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday and 9:00 a.m. on Sunday and closes when the green flag drops for each race.  The cost is $85 per person on Saturday, $125 on Sunday or a discounted rate of $175 for both days.  A single-day Pit Pass is included for each single-day purchase.  Party Zone tickets must be pre-purchased and each person in attendance must have a Party Zone wristband (no children’s discount is available regardless of day).

All driver appearances are tentative and subject to change.  Space is limited so fans are encouraged to reserve a spot today.
