Fans Can Win IMS NASCAR Tickets by Competing in Brickyard Pit Stop Paddle

The spirit of competition of the annual NASCAR event at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway will fuel the Brickyard Pit Stop Paddle on Thursday, Aug. 23 in downtown Indianapolis, as teams race in pedal boats on the Indiana Central Canal for the chance to win tickets to the 25th Running of the Big Machine Vodka 400 at the Brickyard Powered by Florida Georgia Line.

Teams of eight will compete in pedal boats on the canal in the event, which starts at 5 p.m. at the Canal Level at the Eugene & Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center near the Ohio Street bridge. Four team members will start near the Ohio Street bridge, pedaling and paddling to the New York Street bridge to switch places with the four remaining team members to race back to the start.

A single-elimination bracket will narrow down the field and culminate in a championship race between the top two teams.

The grand prize is 16 tickets to the Big Machine Vodka 400 at the Brickyard Powered by Florida Georgia Line on Sunday, Sept. 9 at IMS, along with eight Wheel Fun Rentals pedal boat rides and bragging rights.

Entry fees are $80 per eight-person team ($70 for Downtown Indy, Inc. members using the code DIIMEMBER). All proceeds will benefit downtown beautification and décor.

DJ entertainment, food options and a bar will be available at the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center – Canal Level until 7 p.m. Registration starts at 4:30 p.m.
