Trackhouse Racing Experiences 

Choice Privileges is a main sponsor of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season, adding a second sponsored driver, Ross Chastain, driver of the No. 1 Chevrolet, to their team. That is in addition to Daniel Suárez, driver of the No. 99 Chevrolet from last year’s sponsorship.

This means even more perks are coming for Choice Privileges members.

Thanks to feedback from members, Choice will once again auction off VIP Trackhouse Racing experiences that will offer inside access to events throughout the season.

As experiences increasingly become a key driver of people’s travel plans, we are committed to enhancing offerings available through Choice Privileges to give our customers unforgettable memories. There’s little that compares to the adrenaline rush of the pit road and the chance to meet the drivers and pit crew, which is why the Trackhouse Racing offer was so popular with customers. We’re thrilled to extend this sponsorship, which perfectly aligns with many of our members’ interests.
