An Unforgettable Weekend at the Coke Zero Sugar 400

An Unforgettable Weekend at the Coke Zero Sugar 400

Last weekend, I had the incredible honor of being an honorary pit crew member for Chase Elliott at the Coke Zero Sugar 400. This experience was not only thrilling but also offered a behind-the-scenes look at the electrifying world of NASCAR that few get to see.

Thanks to the support of NAPA Auto Care and the Chase Elliott NAPA brand, I was granted full access passes that took me deep into the mechanics of the race. From observing the tech inspection process to standing in the start/finish line area before the race, I felt like I was in a dream. Being among the drivers and cameras, rather than submerged in the crowd, made this experience all the more unique.

One of the highlights was getting to engage in candid conversations with Chase Elliott himself. His passion for the sport is contagious, and it was exhilarating to hear insider tales that added depth to my understanding of NASCAR racing.

And the cherry on top? Seeing my company name, Dave's Auto and Mobile Repair, proudly displayed on both rear fenders of Chase's car was a surreal moment. Never did I imagine that our company would be showcased on such a prominent stage.

As I reflect on this remarkable weekend, I’m grateful for the memories made, the connections formed, and the invaluable insights gained about NASCAR. I can’t wait to share my photos and stories with you all!

Stay tuned for more updates, and here’s to many more thrilling adventures ahead!
