Bishop, director of racing and event marketing for Federated. “All eyes will be on the Federated Auto Parts 400 this September to see which drivers will be in the NASCAR Sprint Cup ‘Chase.’ In addition to exciting racing, we are planning a fun-filled weekend of hospitality events for our members and their customers, so we know the Federated 400 will be memorable for all involved.”

The Federated Auto Parts 400 will run under the lights at the Richmond International Raceway with a planned start time of 7 p.m. EST.
