Chevy Rock & Roll 400
Held at the
Richmond International Raceway in Richmond, Virginia.
the Rock and Roll 400 features top ten-point earning drivers in
an important "playoff" to determine the Sprint Cup Chase
champion.
What makes
the Chevy Rock & Roll 400 so special? Because of its proximity
to Patriot Day in honor of 9/11,
the Pledge of Allegiance is usually included as part of the opening
ceremony. A unique trophy is later bestowed upon the winner -
in the shape of a guitar - in tribute to authentic all-American
rock n' roll!
Last year,
Jimmie
Johnson rocked the house at the Chevy Rock & Roll 400
in a dramatic neck-and-neck battle for the finish against Tony
Stewart. With 10 laps to go, Johnson pulled ahead to beat
out the No. 20 car in one of the last important races before the
run for the Sprint
Cup Chase.
Stay tuned
as the major superstars of NASCAR rock the house, and roll with
the punches, yet again at the 2009 Chevy Rock & Roll 400 which
airs live on ABC Television at 1PM on Saturday, September 12,
2009.
