The event, the second open house in the last two years at the 100,000-square-foot state of the art shop that opened in August 2011 with a similar special public event, will feature appearances and autograph sessions by four drivers with ThorSport connections, light snacks and beverages, team and championship memorabilia for sale, shop and transporter access, musical entertainment, video presentations, photo opportunities and giveaways.
ThorSport’s two 2013 championship drivers, Matt Crafton and Frank Kimmel, will be available for photographs with their race vehicles and championship trophies, as well as signing autographs throughout the event.
Crafton, who holds the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series’ consecutive starts record with 316, will appear with his 2013 NCWTS drivers’ championship trophy alongside his No. 88 Menards Toyota Tundra.
Kimmel, who secured his record-extending 10th ARCA Racing Series championship and also won his ARCA-record 80th series victory in the 2013 season finale at Kansas Speedway, will appear with the drivers’ and owners’ championship trophies alongside his No. 44 Ansell / Menards Toyota Camry.
Johnny Sauter, who finished fourth in the Truck Series’ standings and led series regulars with three wins, will appear with his winner’s trophies from 2013 races at Daytona International Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway alongside the No. 98 Nextant Aerospace / Curb Records Toyota Tundra that he debuted at Homestead.
