Visit NASCAR HOF during Power Forum
How about rubbin’ elbows and rubbin’ fenders? During the OPE+ Power Forum business conference, attendees will get the chance to celebrate with peers at the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte, N.C.
The NASCAR Hall of Fame venue is a unique experience for fans of racing and for those who are not yet fans of racing. The experiential event space in downtown Charlotte, a short walk from the Power Forum event hotel, greets fans with easily recognizable race machines, both new and vintage. Attendees can also sit in cars, enjoy virtual racing games, and so much more.
On a recent visit, we saw NASCAR race machines that took us back to memorable races with world famous racers. We also got to experience the unique Glory Road banked track layout that places cars as they’d race on tracks like Talladega and Daytona Speedway.
We also learned some amazing history, like the story of Curtis Turner, one of the sport’s earliest racers, a former bootleg-moonshine driver, and eventual founder of the Charlotte Motor Speedway. His #21 1962 Ford Galaxie Sunliner convertible racer is on display toward the front of Glory Road.
You’ll see Jerry Cook’s modified Ford Pinto, an early #24 Chevy of Jeff Gordon, and – my personal favorite – the #43 Dodge Charger of Richard Petty.
