Drivers’ reactions
World Wide Technology Raceway is a great place to see a race because it is a throwback to the days of NASCAR’s early days. It’s not far from downtown St. Louis, near the Gateway Arch, and offers a thrilling racing experience. Here, NASCAR drivers react to the changes at the track.
The World Wide Technology Raceway’s surface is hard on cars, so racers must make a winning move or lose the race. This was the case in the recent NASCAR Cup race at the track, with Joey Logano prevailing in overtime after passing the leader Kyle Busch. Logano overtook Busch in overtime after a mechanical malfunction caused Busch to spin, which forced a restart.
Confluence Festival
The World Wide Technology Raceway is a motorsports racing facility in Madison, Illinois. It is just east of St. Louis, Missouri, and is close to the Gateway Arch. The track has a lot to offer fans and locals alike, and is a great place to enjoy both the sport and the surrounding area.
The festival runs from June 3 to 5 and will feature a variety of entertainment including live music. During the event, fans will have the chance to enjoy local and regional musicians and performers, including country singer Nelly. They’ll also enjoy performances by country band Old Dominion and alternative rock band The Steve Ewing Band. A number of STEM activities are also planned, and the Confluence Festival will highlight augmented reality. A demonstration of World Wide Technology’s RaceAR augmented reality race simulation is also set to take place on the Midway.
The Confluence Festival is a unique opportunity to celebrate the talent and innovation of the local community. The three-day festival will feature concerts by major artists such as Nelly, Cole Swindell, and the Old Dominion. There will also be live entertainment, and a televised NASCAR Cup Series race will be held on June 3.
New tracks at World Wide Technology Raceway
World Wide Technology Raceway has undergone a $100 million renovation and expansion. It is now an 620-acre facility that also features a golf course, lake, and new parking areas. The track will host its 300-mile race on June 5th. Besides the racetrack, WWT plans to expand its hospitality suite tower with new amenities. The new facilities will include a rooftop component and renovated suite interiors.
World Wide Technology Raceway, which is also known as Gateway, is home to NASCAR and INDYCAR racing. It is the largest outdoor entertainment complex in the St. Louis area, with facilities including a 1.25-mile superspeedway, karting track, and 14-acre dirt off-road venue.
In addition to NASCAR Cup Series racing, the track hosts a variety of concerts and events. The Enjoy Illinois 300 presented by TicketSmarter kicks off the weekend. The race will feature major music acts on five stages, including Cole Swindell, Kamerlowe, Alexandra Kay, River Kittens, and Nelly. Tickets are still available for the Enjoy Illinois 300.
NASCAR Camping World Truck Series races will make their way to World Wide Technology Raceway during the 2022 season. The Enjoy Illinois 300 will air live on FS1, MRN, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. Founded in 1985 as a road course, the track is now a 1.25-mile paved oval. It also has a drag strip for cars and trucks. The entire facility is over 700 acres, making it a prime location for NASCAR racing.
Joey Logano
Joey Logano is the first Cup Series driver to win at the World Wide Technology Raceway. Logano won the inaugural race in the dirt at Bristol last year and the first Clash exhibition race at the Los Angeles Coliseum in February. The 1.25-mile track has hosted several races in the past, including the Xfinity Series.
Logano is currently sixth in the Cup Series standings. Behind him are Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin, William Byron, and Ross Chastain. The race was a wild one. Logano was overtaken by Kyle Busch with just two laps remaining, but made one last push to win it.
Logano won the NASCAR Cup Series race at the World Wide Technology Raceway after battling with Kyle Busch on the final restart. The race was originally scheduled to be 240 laps long, but due to a wreck involving Kevin Harvick, it was extended to overtime. The two drivers battled for the win until Logano pulled away to take the checkered flag.
Denny Hamlin’s win
With his win at World Wide Technology Raceway, Denny Hamlin is now tied with Herb Thomas for the most career wins in the NASCAR Cup Series. Thomas finished with 48 wins during his career, which spanned from 1949 to 1957. He won two championships, in 1951 and 1953. Since his debut in the series in 2005, Hamlin has accumulated six wins – three of them with Joe Gibbs Racing.
The two drivers have been feuding for some time, and they have both been involved in some high-profile incidents. In the first of these, Denny Hamlin blocked Ross Chastain from getting off a damaged vehicle policy. The second was when Chastain spun due to contact with Denny Hamlin at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. While Chastain said it was a result of hard racing between the two drivers, Hamlin says that it was a win for both of them.
While Hamlin is known for his skill on short and flat tracks, he is known for his dominance at these tracks. This is his second win at the track this season, and he’s running extremely well with his #11 team. He has been the factor in nearly every race over the last month.
Kyle Busch’s finish
The World Wide Technology Raceway is a motorsports facility located in Madison, Illinois. The track is east of St. Louis, Missouri, and is close to the Gateway Arch. In recent years, the track has become one of the most popular locations for NASCAR race fans.
In a race packed with a lot of fast cars, Kyle Busch had to find the perfect moment to make a winning move and finish ahead of his rival, Joey Logano. But it wasn’t enough. Kyle Busch was overtaken by Logano with two laps remaining and was unable to regain the lead until the final lap, when he was aided by Ryan Blaney.
Kurt Busch finished second. Ross Chastain and Denny Hamlin also finished in the top five. Kyle Busch’s teammates Christopher Bell and Austin Cindric completed the top five, and Austin Cindric earned his eighth top-10 start of the season. The victory was Logano’s first at World Wide Technology Raceway, and he also made Team Penske’s debut in the Cup Series.
Busch finished second in the Coca-Cola 600, and now looks to repeat the feat this weekend. He has four podium finishes in his last six points-paying races. The course has similar characteristics to WWTR, and Busch is eager to make his way to victory lane.
