The weekend

Two days. One very big oval.

Here’s how the 2026 weekend ran. Expect the same format for 2027.

Friday

Show & Shine

3:00 – 7:00 PM (2026)
A free car show at the Speedway. Park your ride, walk the rows, swap stories and grab dinner from the track caterer. Everyone is welcome, whether or not you’re driving Saturday.
Two people pose beside a Hendrick-branded race car supporting veteran outreach.
Saturday

Track sessions

First group rolls at 8:00 AM
Drivers stage in the infield garages by group. When one group finishes, the next heads out behind the pace car. Sessions run until everyone who wants laps gets them.
How a session works

From the infield to the high banks.

01

Reserve your laps

Book one or more five-lap sessions online. Extra spots often open up on the day.
02

Stage in the infield

Check in, line up with your group in the infield garages and meet the team running the show.
03

Follow the pace car

Roll onto the 2.66-mile tri-oval behind the pace car and feel 33 degrees of banking under your tires.
04

Go again

Five laps goes fast. Plenty of drivers book a second session before they’re back in the garage.

Merch for the cause

Track Day T-shirts, hats and challenge coins are sold through our online store. Every purchase supports veterans.
No. Track Day started with Corvette clubs, but every make and model is welcome. If it’s street legal and in good shape, bring it.
Hendrick Chevrolet Hoover pays the Talladega rental, more than $11,000, so 100% of session fees go to Hendrick Driven for Veterans. That money funds grants for vetted veterans and support for veteran organizations in Alabama.
Hendrick Driven for Veterans is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 92-1364542). Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Check with your tax advisor about your situation.
Sessions run at controlled speeds behind a pace car, with volunteers including Team Corvette Alabama helping keep everything safe. It’s a parade on the banking, not a race.
Yes. You can buy multiple sessions ahead of time, and more spots often open up during the day.
A five-lap session was $135 in 2026. 2027 pricing will be posted when registration opens.
Yes. The Talladega track caterer sells food on site during the weekend.
