Fans race to Madison County for the Enjoy Illinois 300
MADISON, Ill. (First Alert 4) – Race fans descended on Worldwide Technology Raceway by the tens of thousands Sunday, experiencing the best St. Louis has to offer.
In Sunday’s main event, the Enjoy Illinois 300, Austin Cindric brought home the win on the circuit. But spectators to the track also enjoyed some local favorites, including St. Louis Style Barbecue.
Jermaine Guido runs a BBQ trailer at every WWT Raceway event, combining his Mississippi roots with St. Louis barbecue staples like pork steak.
Guido says this is a great day for local businesses at the racetrack. It’s one of the busiest days of the year for his family-run stand, serving hungry NASCAR fans all day.
“I’ve been here since every the years,” Guido said. “I do NASCAR, the Indy 500 and the NHRA. This is like the cream of the crop right here. I really like doing joints like this.”
The Enjoy Illinois 300 is hosted in Madison, Illinois, annually, generating revenue for the Metro East community surrounding the racetrack.
