INDIANAPOLIS -- Select NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series drivers including Funny Car racer Mike Neff, Pro Stock Motorcycle teammates Andrew Hines and Eddie Krawiec will take part in a special autograph session at the Indianapolis Children’s Museum on Aug. 11th in conjunction with the Hot Wheels For Real™ exhibit.

The autograph session will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. outside of the main entrance. Those entering the Children’s Museum will not only be able to get autographs but also see NHRA cars on display at the entrance to the museum.

One of five drag racing facilities owned and operated by the National Hot Rod Association, Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis was built in 1960 and has presented organized racing events since 1961. From March through October, the facility hosts more than 120 dates of racing on three tracks, a quarter-mile drag strip, a .686-mile paved oval and a 2.5-mile road course. Home to drag racing’s biggest event, the NHRA Mac Tools U.S. Nationals over Labor Day weekend, the drag strip runs more than 50 days of point-to-point action, from national events to street legal community programs. The oval track draws racing’s biggest events, including annual visits from the NASCAR Nationwide, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and annual USAC races. The road course provides a home for several racing sanctions, while providing an ideal resource for driving schools, corporate outings and open-road tests for professional drivers.
