Kyle, Texas - Central Texas Speedway received a very special surprise visit last weekend while the F1 and NASCAR Races were in Texas! With famous drivers at COTA and Texas Motor Speedway, it was only fitting that Central Texas Speedway hosted a few famous drivers as well.

After stopping by Texas Motor Speedway to ask NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon for a few stock car racing tips former Formula One drivers, Johnny Herbert and Damon Hill paid a visit to Central Texas Speedway to try their skills in a stock car by participating in the Rusty Wallace Experience hosted by the track.

Johnny Herbert is a retired British driver who drove in the Formula One series from 1989 to the year 2000. He competed in 161 races with seven podium finishes including three first place victories. Since retiring from racing, Herbert can now be found regularly on the Sky Sports F1 HD channel offering post-race analysis of current F1 races.

Damon Hill, also a retired British driver, was active in Formula One from 1992 until 1991. Hill competed in 115 races gaining 42 podium finishes including 22 first place victories.
