SAHARA GETS IN THE RACE

There’s sure to be a lot going on at the Sahara during NASCAR weekend, and things are sure to be hopping over at NASCAR Café. Race-fans and speedsters alike should head down to the café to avail themselves of fantastic dining and drinks promotions, as well as the chance to see the actual Crown Royal and Coors Light Show Cars.

Good deals abound at the café. On top of a bigger and better menu, they’re even allowing diners to “order by the pound,” such as the case with the all-new “The Bomb Burrito.” Weighing in at 6 pounds and 24 inches and covered with all the sour cream, guacamole, and cheese one could imagine, this meal offers more than just flavor- it’s pure entertainment. Ordering “The Bomb” comes with a challenge – finish the dish and not only is it FREE, but champions will earn a t-shirt proclaiming them to have “Conquered The Bomb.” Each champion’s photo will be also added to the Winner Wall and they will receive two free passes to brave Speed The Ride. However, not finishing “The Bomb,” earns guests a photo with the “Weenie” t-shirt on; which of course, only comes in one style - XS and pink.

Its also revamped its draft beer program. In addition to 12 regular draft offerings, NASCAR will feature rotating handles. The most recent addition to the lineup is Rogue Brewing Co.’s Chocolate Stout. The chocolate flavor provided by Dutch chocolate balances with the Cascade Hops for a bittersweet finish.
