Richmond International Raceway is offering race fans a unique opportunity on Thursday, September 6. All NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers eligible to race their way into or capture a Wild Card spot in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, but have not already secured a position prior to the Federated Auto Parts 400, will participate in a free fan question and answer session. The event, which is FREE and open to the general public, will start at 5:30 p.m. on the backstretch apron of RIR’s ¾-mile track.
Fans are asked to submit their questions for the drivers in advance by tweeting @MissSprintCup and @RIRinsider. Please be sure to include #askmscrir in order to have your question considered. Questions can also be submitted at Facebook/RichmondInternationalRaceway or via e-mail at [email protected].
Guests attending the Q&A session on Thursday are asked to enter Richmond International Raceway through Gate 7 off Carolina Avenue and park in the Henrico Parking Lot. Please enter the grandstands at Gate 60 on the backstretch and proceed to the crossover gate. The Q&A session will take place on the backstretch apron.

This free event is weather permitting.
