LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Nick Cannon will serve as the honorary pace car driver for the upcoming South Point 400 race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

“I have been a fan of fast cars since I was a kid,” Cannon said. “NASCAR delivers a unique experience and thrill, unlike anything I’ve experienced. I’m honored to be invited to be the pace car driver for the Las Vegas NASCAR weekend. It’s one of those bucket list experiences I’m looking forward to checking off.”
