Xfinity race at Charlotte Motor Speedway is now the BetMGM 300
CONCORD, N.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) – The Xfinity race at Charlotte Motor Speedway will now be known as the BetMGM 300, officials familiar with the matter confirmed on Wednesday.
In addition to the name change, Speed Street will now be known as BetMGM Speed Street. Speed Street takes place in Uptown Charlotte and features various attractions including music and food trucks for fans in town for race weekend.
“When we first started talking about a partnership with BetMGM, one of the things that interested us was finding a partner that would activate at our events and add value to the fan experience,” said Charlotte Motor Speedway Executive Vice President and General Manager Greg Walter. “Bringing them on as both the race entitlement and Speed Street sponsor will help elevate their brand to the NASCAR audience and provide those on-site for our race weekend the chance to connect and engage in North Carolina’s next era of sports entertainment.”
The race takes place on Saturday, May 25th.
“As we look to grow our brand in North Carolina, there is no better time and place than Charlotte Motor Speedway on Memorial Day Weekend,” said Matt Prevost, BetMGM Chief Revenue Officer. “Our team looks forward to introducing sports betting to a new audience and helping add to the overall experience for fans throughout the entire Speed Street event and BetMGM 300 race.”
Last year the race was known as the Alsco Uniforms 300.
