Weenie in the Hole - Do you have good aim? Well hot diggity dog! Weenie in the Hole is just for you!

The contestant with the most successful weenie drops will receive $100!
Cake Stand - CAKE STAND, CAKE STAND, DO SOMETHING CRAZY!!! Three teams of three will attempt to devour a delicious Talladega Superspeedway 50th anniversary cake while in keg stand position! Knees weak, arms are heavy? No problem, you can alternate with teammates! The first team to consume the entire cake will receive $300 and bragging rights!
Straight Arm’d and Delicious - Pour some sugar on me! In this straight arm relay challenge, three contestants will pour smoothies over their heads and try to catch as much liquid in their mouths as possible! Don’t swallow, because the contestant to fill up his or her designated bucket first will receive $250! You must be SMOOTH to win this competition!
BBQ Sauce Wrestling - BBQ Sauce Wrestling is back and better than ever! Four ladies will battle it out in a 500-gallon pit of BBQ sauce in order to capture their opponent’s flag! After two elimination rounds of best 2 out of 3, then an ultimate championship round, the BBQ Sauce Wrestling Queen will win a grand prize of $1,000! Are you saucy enough to take the challenge?

Transformation - The Talladega Superspeedway Infield Project Presented by Graybar
The track, along with its parent company, International Speedway Corporation, announced last year Transformation - The Talladega Superspeedway Infield Project presented by Graybar. The approximate $50 million redevelopment endeavor is part of ISC’s long-term capital allocation plan and reinvestment into its major motorsports complexes. The project, highlighted by a one-of-a-kind Talladega Garage Experience, will feature “up-close” access, interactive attractions and enhanced amenities for fans, sponsors, teams and stakeholders in the iconic Talladega infield. Full completion of the modernized project is scheduled for October 2019. Ready for the spring tripleheader weekend will be the grand opening of the massive 2-lane Oversized Vehicle Tunnel (near Turn 3 entry) that will allow fans’ RVs, along with team haulers to enter and exit 24 hours. In addition, the 69-spot Finish Line Premium RV area will debut, along with new Infield Shower Trailers. Fans can learn more about the project by visiting www.talladegasuperspeedway.com/transformation. The track, which opened in 1969, will also celebrate its 50th Anniversary this year.
