Description
Julie Giese is preparing for her final race as president of Phoenix Raceway before shifting to the Chicago street course. Giese explains what goes on a racetrack in the final weeks before an event; how championship weekend is different from spring race weekend; what being a track president means; sitting with race fans for the start of the events; going from a dairy farm to working in racing; what it was like to come into NASCAR in 2001 during an intense time for the sport; experiences and projects that get thrown your way while in marketing and communications; being involved in finding her successor at Phoenix; overseeing the Chicago street course; addressing the concerns over the event; being involved in seeing if it was even possible to do; praise from the industry of her name being attached to big projects; learning hustle and work ethic from the farm; if knowing the Midwest will help in any way plan the Chicago street event; some of the important things on her agenda; what she’s looking forward to in her final Phoenix weekend.
