"Talladega Superspeedway and the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail are nationally recognized venues in the great state of Alabama," Talladega president Rick Humphrey said. "It's only natural that we combine the strength of our two great brands to welcome visitors from around the country with the Fairway to Speedway offer. Free overnight parks open on Tuesday of race week, leaving race fans Wednesday and Thursday to play golf and enjoy some of the wonderful attractions our state offers. Friday through Sunday can be all about enjoying the thrill of Talladega Superspeedway."

Golf rounds are valid at all Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail courses, with the exception of Ross Bridge and Lakewood.

In 2009, Talladega proudly celebrates 40 years of the most competitive racing in NASCAR. While the track has seen changes made to the cars that circle its high-banks, the surface that they race on and the grandstands that thousands of fans fill twice a year, one constant remains: Talladega is authentic NASCAR racing at its finest.

Race fans should make plans now to experience part of Talladega's history in 2009 during the tripleheader Aaron's Dream Weekend on April 24-26, featuring the ARCA Re/Max Series, the Nationwide Series and the Sprint Cup Series.
