MEMPHIS INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY ANNOUNCES RACER INFORMATION AND STAY & RACE HOTEL PACKAGE FOR 2012 SUPER CHEVY SHOW

Millington, Tenn., (February 7, 2012) – Officials at Memphis International Raceway have had a busy winter season preparing for the upcoming Super Chevy Show, April 13 – 15, 2012. The track has announced new race participant information and new partnerships with the official Host Hotel and Preferred Hotels with a special Stay & Race Package.

Super Chevy Show fans can turn a weekend at the track into a weekend getaway with the Stay & Race Package that includes accommodations for two nights, continental breakfast, and two 3-Day Super Chevy Show tickets with packages ranging from $160 to $258. Packages are also valid for racers by upgrading ticket at the track.



In addition to the official Host Hotel, Holiday Inn Express, Memphis International Raceway has locked in the special Stay & Race packages at the track’s Preferred Hotels, Quality Inn, Admiralty of Plantation Oaks and Admiralty Suites & Inn all located within 10 miles of the raceway in Millington, Tenn. For more information, visit www.racemir.com or call 901-WOW-RACE.

[Memphis-Intl-Rcwy-logo] “MIR is excited to work with these properties to offer our fans an opportunity to take advantage of these great Stay & Race packages. The basic packages are for a 2 nights stay & two 3-day full event tickets, but can be customized to the needs of our fans,” said Pam Kendrick, Memphis International Raceway, General Manager. “We believe this is a way to work with the properties and maximize our support to them and offer the fans a great deal at the same time.”

After a two-year hiatus, the Super Chevy Show’s return to the Memphis International Raceway brings local Chevy-powered or Chevy-bodied racers a place to once again earn some “cred” on the drag strip.

“Memphis’ absence from the Super Chevy Show tour was noticed by a loyal following that had become accustomed to the stop in Memphis after having been a part of schedule for more than 22 years. We are very excited that the Super Chevy Show is back in Memphis for many years to come.” said Kendrick. “The Super Chevy Show was one of the first events we received many inquiries about upon reopening the facility after two years of silence. Our fans are excited about its return and the Chevy fans in the Mid-South are in for a fun-filled weekend in 2012 with something for everyone – from the car show, swap meet, car corral, side-by-side racing on the 1/8th mile and exhibition racing.”
