Fan Fair Forum Schedule Announced for National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum!

| August 7, 2018

 

Knoxville, IA, August 6, 2018 – The National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum has another busy, action-packed week planned during the 58th running of the 5-hour Energy Knoxville Nationals, August 8-11! Among the events in the museum are the popular Fan Fair Forums, the Autograph Sessions that are second to none, our “Members Only” VIP Reception, the PRI Manufacturer’s luncheon and, of course, the Saturday Nationals Auction!

 

The museum currently has over 30 cars on display! Twenty-three of those cars are different from our 2017 exhibits! New this summer are the “Salute to Champion Bryan Clauson”, the “Evolution of Sprint Cars” exhibit, the “Tribute to Central PA”, the “Ode to Ascot/California”, and the “One-Off Trostle” cars. Other new features include our “Welcome Touchscreen” and our new exhibit speakers for our video presentations.

 

Spend your week with us in the air-conditioned museum, open daily from 8 a.m. until the final checkered flag falls each night! We think you’ll like your experience with us!
