Cook Out Southern 500

Event Details

When it comes to NASCAR racing, one of the most difficult and exciting tracks in the nation is Darlington Raceway. Nicknamed “The Lady in Black” and “The Track Too Tough to Tame” by many NASCAR fans and drivers, Darlington offers a unique, egg-shaped design – an oval with different configurations at each end.  NASCAR’s first paved superspeedway, the track was designed that way due to its proximity to a minnow pond the owner refused to relocate. As a result, the odd configuration creates a challenge for the crews to set up their cars’ handling in a way that can be effective at both ends.

Here’s your chance to experience the thrills of NASCAR’s best taking on The Track Too Tough to Tame at the Cook Out Southern 500 over Labor Day Weekend! The Southern 500 is NASCAR Cup Series stock car race that’s actually 501 miles long, and consists of 367 laps around the Darlington oval. Seating for the event is at Turn 4.

This exceptional event getaway features accommodations in a luxurious villa at Westgate Myrtle Beach Oceanfront Resort. Located along South Carolina’s spectacular Grand Strand, Myrtle Beach Oceanfront Resort offers a heated beachfront swimming pool, lazy river, beachside Bistro and Marketplace, and close to famous attractions like the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk.

As with all Westgate Events, you’ll also be entertained with a VIP welcome party complete with dinner, open bar, prizes and a DJ, plus personal concierge services and no-hassle transportation to and from Darlington Raceway.
