On the asphalt and in the sky, the stars of NASCAR and Team Fastrax™ drop the flag on the official first race of the CHASE this weekend when Chicagoland Speedway hosts the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) 400, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series American Ethanol e15 255 race and a NASCAR XFINITY Series Race.
On Sunday, September 18th, TMNT 400 Defending race winner Denny Hamlin will battle it out with Brad Keselowski, Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Jimmie Johnson, Joey Logano and all of the stars of the NASCAR Series, for the checkered flag. As part of the opening ceremonies of all the races this weekend, Team Fastrax™ will be performing their famous American Flag skydive with their 1,100 sq. ft. American Flag, red, white and blue streamers, and a Chicagoland Speedway flag. This weekend’s performances will be ones that you do not want to miss.
John Hart, owner of Start Skydiving, and founding member of Team Fastrax™ said, “We are honored to be performing our American Flag demonstration jump to help kickoff the CHASE. The 2016 NASCAR season has been very competitive, and this whole weekend will be filled with excitement.”
