Joie Chitwood Great Quotations

On behalf of the (speedway's owners), it's an honor to be here tonight and to accept this recognition. We have a unique event that is specifically tied in to Memorial Day weekend. ... It only makes the greatest spectacle in racing that much more special.

It is the start of the race. It's really the beginning -- the kickoff. The fact that we've had a great partner in Chevrolet for so long helps us do the things that we do today.

This announcement is an early Christmas present for fans of the Greatest Spectacle in Racing.
