Travel Tips: Richmond International Raceway
Richmond International Raceway will play host to the NASCAR
Nationwide (Virginia 529 College Savings 250) and Sprint Cup (Federated Auto Parts
400) Series this weekend.
After the conclusion of racing this weekend, the 2012 Sprint
Cup Chase will begin and our 12 contenders will gear up for battle throughout
the last 10 races of the NASCAR season. Many eyes will be on the drivers who
will be vying for the two wild card spots, especially Kyle Busch and Jeff
Gordon.
