The South Point 400 NASCAR Cup Series Playoff Race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday, October 12, will feature an electrifying crossover between two worlds of entertainment as WWE Superstar Damian Priest takes the wheel as the official pace car driver for this year’s playoff race.
Known to fans worldwide as “The Archer of Infamy,” Priest will bring his trademark intensity, charisma and larger-than-life presence to the NASCAR stage as the former World Heavyweight Champion, setting the tone for one of the most anticipated playoff races of the year.
Priest has earned the titles of former 2x Undisputed Tag Team Champion and former Señor Money in the Bank following his reign with Bálor and the Money in the Bank contract in 2023. With a career built on unforgettable moments and championship triumphs, Priest has carved a meteoric path in WWE. Bursting onto the scene in 2021, Priest tag-teamed with global music sensation Bad Bunny in a show-stealing match at WrestleMania 37. Following the win, Priest cemented himself as one of WWE’s fastest-rising stars that same year as he captured the United States Championship.
With Priest’s sights set on championship gold this year, fans can expect to see that same energy, fire and unmistakable drive as he brings the NASCAR Cup Series Playoff field to life as the official pace car driver. His presence will officially set the stage for 400 miles of high-speed action under the desert sun as NASCAR’s most prominent drivers battle for a coveted spot in the Round of 8 at the South Point 400 NASCAR Cup Series Playoff Race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, starting at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, October 12.
