Bristol Walk of Fame
For fans looking to leave their mark at Bristol Motor Speedway there's no better way route to take than the Bristol Walk of Fame.
Fans can honor their loved ones or favorite driver with a two-line message in the checkered sidewalk in front of BMS. The pavers, 12" x 12" in size, are granite and are available in black or white.
The Bristol Walk of Fame pavers are $149 each. Orders will be taken on race weekend in the old ticket office located in the parking lot at the main entrance of Bristol Motor Speedway.
All proceeds benefit the Bristol chapter of Speedway Children's Charities.
