MADISON, Ill. – Have that one person who’s impossible to shop for during the holiday season? Give the gift of racing by coming out to Gateway International Raceway’s Holiday Hot Laps party Dec. 1. The festivities run from 6 a.m.-9 p.m. and feature special ticket discounts for GIR’s 2010 NASCAR and NHRA events, as well as deals on Gateway merchandise and ticket packages for Midnight Madness Presented by Monster Energy Drink.

After an amazing season of NASCAR racing at Gateway in 2009 and the addition of a second NASCAR Nationwide Series race Oct. 23 at the 1.25-mile oval in 2010 and a Nationwide/Truck Series doubleheader July 16-17, now more than ever, tickets to GIR top every race fan’s must-have list. On the NHRA side this season, the Full Throttle Series provided the nitro-burning excitement that is synonymous with drag racing at Gateway. In 2010, NHRA is bringing its new Pro Mod series to GIR to up the adrenaline level in the stands. Gearheads, nitro addicts, and oval enthusiasts won’t want to miss what is going to be an incredible year of racing next season.
