NASCAR at Atlanta Motor SpeedwayMove over, Daytona 500. Take a number, Indy 500. There's a new heavyweight in the world of auto racing, and it comes out of Druid Hills.

Emory Healthcare has been named the title sponsor for this year's NASCAR's Labor Day weekend Sprint Cup Series at Atlanta Motor Speedway, which will be named the "Emory Healthcare 500." The multiple-year contract calls for Emory Healthcare to sponsor the Speedway's 2010 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and become the official health care provider of Atlanta Motor Speedway.

"Partnering so closely with NASCAR and the Atlanta Motor Speedway is a unique opportunity to support the local communities that work so hard to host and operate one the nation's premier sporting events each year. It is also a chance to support and thank the many valued patients and physicians in the Henry County and Southern Crescent region who allow Emory to serve them for cutting-edge medical care -- from its non-invasive heart valve repair to neurological intensive care and rehabilitation," said Emory Healthcare President and CEO, John T. Fox.

"I am particularly excited that this partnership will allow Emory Healthcare volunteers to provide ongoing health care screenings and educational programs during the entire event for race fans, visitors and community supports alike."

The biggest Labor Day party in the USA is at Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Emory Healthcare 500 race weekend, Sept. 3 through 5. For more information, contact the Atlanta Motor Speedway ticket office at 770-946-4211 or visit www.atlantamotorspeedway.com.
