Big Machine Records is sponsoring the race, so it makes complete sense to offer some of its best for entertainment before the race. The president of the label, Scott Borchetta, is a longtime supporter of racing, and the label actually sponsored the winning car at Indianapolis 500 this year.
Newbie Rhett Thomas initiates proceedings brought by the band of Perry, Brantley Gilbert, and Justin Moore. Reba performs "America the Beautiful" before Rascal Flatts ends up the proceedings with his personalized version of national anthem. At the end of the musical performances, Borchetta has the honor of waving the green flag signaling the start of testing.
This is sure to be a fun event on Sunday for racing fans and the country (not always exclusive!) Alike!
