The stars of NASCAR return to Richmond International Raceway, both in the air and on the asphalt, as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series heats up during the Federated Auto Parts 400. Defending race winner Matt Kenseth will battle it out with Tony Stewart, Jimmie Johnson, Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin and all of the stars of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series around the 3/4-mile track for the checkered flag.  Team Fastrax™ will be performing an amazing patriotic aerial display just prior to the race, which will include their amazing 1,100-sq-ft and 500-sq-ft American Flags as well as the Richmond International Raceway flag.

John Hart, owner of Start Skydiving, and member of Team Fastrax™, said “We are honored to be performing our patriotic American Flag skydive at such a thrilling event.   This race is sure to be very exciting, since it’s the last chance for these drivers to secure their place in the Chase before the playoffs.”
