The FedEx Hauler rolls down the Las Vegas strip to deliver their  race car to Las Vegas Motor Speedway 

NASCAR at Las Vegas Motor Speedway

March 13, 2015

Who doesn't enjoy a visit to the strip in Las Vegas? That's exactly how NASCAR begins it's weekend in Nevada. Thursday evening the NASCAR teams enter town in parade form as the lumbering race car haulers begin there majestic drive down the world renown Las Vegas Boulevard. Traffic is halted by police as the procession lumbers along with air horns blaring. Crowds fill the concourses above the neon lit pathway and clamber along the barricades to catch a glimpse of their heroes, the motor sports gladiators. It was a special, regal event through Sin City marking the arrival of NASCAR in western United States for 2015. Here's a few of my favourite pictures from the weekend.
