“The Restart BAR Zone Club offers several options for our fans that have never been available at Texas Motor Speedway,” SMI Motorsports, Inc. President and Chief Executive Officer Marcus Smith said in the release. “Fans can be outside to take in all the raw action and power fans love to experience at our races or they can go inside to a quieter environment and visit with others. Previously, we have heard from fans that they would enjoy the option of both experiences so this is a way we can accommodate both. Fans are going to love it.”
Designer of the project is Steve Swift, the vice president of operations and development at Speedway Motorsports Inc (SMI). SMI is based out of Charlotte, North Carolina, and is the parent company to Texas Motor Speedway and seven other racing facilities across the country.
The Restart BAR Zone Club also will be available for the Texas Indy 600 INDYCAR/NASCAR/SuperTrucks tripleheader June 7-9 and the AAA Texas 500 NASCAR playoff tripleheader Nov. 1-4.
Ticket options have yet to be finalized and will be announced soon.
