The roar of engines will soon be back at Talladega Superspeedway, with a tripleheader weekend featuring Saturday’s General Tire 200 and UNHINGED 300, along with Sunday’s GEICO 500.

Thursday, just outside the 2.66-mile venue there were sounds of joy from the Convoy of Hope, a faith-based organization with a driving passion to feed the world. Following successful donation events at Darlington Raceway and Martinsville Speedway, where 1,600 families were served, the Joey Logano Foundation, the NASCAR Foundation and Elevation Outreach, a ministry of Elevation Church based in Charlotte, North Carolina, visited the iconic Alabama venue just off Interstate Highway 20.

Volunteers set up a staging operation near the track’s main entrance and spent hours organizing for the relief effort designed to bring hope to this racing community affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Among the items donated were nonperishable foods, Coca-Cola products, gasoline cards and the NASCAR Foundation’s Speedy Bears for younger guests.
