HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. – Nov. 30, 2010 – Sprint’s (NYSE:S) mobile marketing display, the Sprint Experience, will expand its schedule to include Las Vegas Motor Speedway’s annual Chasers for Charity Fanfest on Wednesday, Dec. 1. More than half a million fans visited the Sprint Experience as it traveled to every 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race this year. This is the second consecutive year the display exceeded 500,000 attendees.

A scaled-down version of the 14,400-square-foot mobile marketing display will be open from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. local time at the speedway. The display allows Sprint to bring fans closer to the sport through custom interactive games, driver and celebrity appearances, and the latest handsets and technologies available from Sprint.

The second annual Chasers for Charity Fanfest will feature a Family Feud style game show played by the 12 drivers who were in the 2010 Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship. All proceeds will benefit Speedway Children’s Charities. The show will be hosted by comedian Kevin Burke, who stars in “Defending the Caveman” at the Excalibur Hotel and Casino.

Fans will also be treated to a celebrity go-kart race at 12:30 p.m. Comedian Carrot Top and San Francisco Giants centerfielder Aaron Rowand are among the celebrities expected for the race.

Drivers are scheduled to arrive at approximately 2 p.m. to walk the red carpet through the Neon Garage at LVMS. Before the drivers’ arrival, fans will be entertained with free track tours, live music and an autograph session with Miss Sprint Cup.
