Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- NASCAR Weekend is here and thousands of race fans are descending on Las Vegas.
About 150,000 fans are expected to attend the races and related events.
Crews have been busy putting up tents and building concession stands.
Much of this work was supposed to be already completed but the windstorm earlier this week delayed much of the preparation.
The racing doesn't start until tomorrow but a variety of drivers are making appearances around town today and the Hauler Parade will take place tonight on the Las Vegas Strip.
NASCAR driver Las Vegas native Kyle Busch will be at M&M World today from 4 to 6 p.m.
Tony Stewart signed autographs at the Office Depot Store on Craig Road in North Las Vegas at 1 p.m.
