RICHMOND, Va. -- There will be a noticeable difference this year at Richmond International Raceway. The track is adding a "larger than life," state-of-the-art video scoring tower which will support four giant video screens high above the infield.
The new leaderboard and video screens, which combined will be the largest in all of motorsports, will be visible from every seat at and installed in time for the NASCAR doubleheader weekend April 30-May 1.
"The new leaderboard and video screens mark a major upgrade and improvement to our facility and will enhance the overall guest experience at 'America's Premier Short Track,'" RIR president Doug Fritz said.
Richmond long has been committed to providing the best fan experience in motorsports. At the heart of that commitment is both asking for and listening to fan feedback.
"Looking at surveys, fan e-mails and comments, our fans asked for a new leaderboard to replace the current model in the infield," Fritz said. "I'm proud to say we're giving our fans something, not only that they have asked for, but something that will be unparalleled in the motorsports industry."
Designed by Panasonic, the entire structure will stand 130 feet tall and feature four LED (light-emitting diode) video screens at the peak. Each enormous LED video screen will measure 38-feet wide by 24-feet high, and the four-sided design will provide spectacular views of the video to fans all around RIR. The LED video screens will display live race action, highlights and replays, pre-produced videos and other animations and graphics.
