Adding an extra layer of excitement, Speedway Motorsports, LLC, the company that owns and manages Atlanta Motor Speedway, has initiated the “FANS FIRST initiative,” as confirmed in a tweet by Jenna Fryer of AP.

She wrote, “Speedway Motorsports says it has started a ‘FANS FIRST initiative’ and Cup and Xfinity drivers will sign autographs at souvenir trailers in fan zones throughout the season starting at Atlanta this Saturday and Sunday. Speedway Motorsports tracks only.” This groundbreaking initiative will bring fans closer to their favorite drivers, set to sign autographs at souvenir trailers located in fan zones throughout the season, starting with the Atlanta races this Saturday and Sunday. This move is a part of Speedway Motorsports’ commitment to enhancing the fan experience across all its nine tracks.

At the forefront of the festivities are the three new entryways strategically positioned at the Johnson, Champions, and Earnhardt grandstands. As per a report by Fox, Brandon Hutchison, executive vice president and general manager of the Atlanta Motor Speedway, expressed that the new modifications would not only give the speedway a facelift but also aim to streamline entry, ensuring fans spend less time in traffic and more time savoring the thrill of the race.
