  • SCC Texas Playoffs Live Auction – The Trackside Live stage, located near Gate 3 of the Fan Zone, will be the site of a live auction of various items and memorabilia for fans on Saturday, Sept. 24. The SCC Texas Playoffs Live Auction will start 15 minutes following the checkered flag for the Andy’s Frozen Custard 300 NASCAR Xfinity Series race, which begins at 2:30 p.m., so be sure to stop by on your way out. The auction is free and open to the public.
  • 50/50 Raffle – You don’t need to wind up in Victory Lane to be a big winner during the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 race weekend. On Saturday and Sunday of race weekend, SCC will be selling tickets (10 for $10, 40 for $20, 120 for $40, 300 for $100) for the 50/50 Raffle, where one lucky winner will receive half the money raised and the other will benefit SCC-Texas. Branded raffle kiosks will be located on the concourse and mobile sellers in green 50/50 Raffle vests with signs will be walking the property, including the campgrounds.
  • The Legacy Shop – This race weekend-only shop gives fans the opportunity to purchase unique memorabilia items of Texas Motor Speedway history to benefit SCC-Texas. The Legacy Shop, located between Gates 4 & 5 in the Fan Zone, is open from when the gates open to the conclusion of the day’s on-track activities on both Saturday, Sept. 24, and Sunday, Sept 25.

Since 1997, Speedway Children's Charities at Texas Motor Speedway has distributed more than $11.5 million in funding to non-profit organizations in Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant counties supporting children in need. The funds distributed by SCC are raised through special events held throughout the year. Most of the SCC events are geared around the major race weeks at Texas Motor Speedway. SCC could fill the grandstands at Texas Motor Speedway 18 times with the number of children the organization has helped since being formed.
