HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. — Having written his first song, titled Round and Round, Aerosmith rhythm and lead guitarist Brad Whitford may have been thinking about his other passion in life, auto racing.
This weekend Whitford will take to the Lowe’s Motor Speedway with 2000 Sprint Cup champion Bobby Labonte as a guest for Saturday night’s running of the Bank of America 500. It will be Whitford’s first trip to the track.
“We are entertaining thousands of fans on a stage, but these guys take it to the pavement,” commented Whitford. “I know Bobby is a champion and a winner. I’m looking forward to hanging out and getting an insider’s view of what it takes for these guys to perform at their peak each week.”
Labonte is also interested in the talents that Whitford displays when playing in front of thousands. Aerosmith has released over a dozen studio albums and is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
“It’s interesting because he has played in front of millions of people worldwide,” said Labonte. “The band is so popular and is a big part of the American culture. Brad is a big part of that team and it will be fun to learn how their chemistry has led them to their success they still enjoy today.”
Whitford will tour the garage, the Cheerios/Betty Crocker transporter and meet with the crew before the race.
