Luke Combs to serve as honorary pace car driver for Ally 400
Combs returns to the Ally 400 after serving as honorary grand marshal for the race in 2021.
LEBANON, Tenn. (WSMV) – Country music star Luke Combs is returning to the Ally 400 – this time as the honorary pace car driver on Sunday.
The award-winning artist will “trade his guitar for driving gloves” for the Ally 400 NASCAR Cup Series race at Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon, Tennessee, on June 30. Combs will be driving the official 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse pace car in front of fans from 48 states and 19 different countries.
“A show with this much horsepower deserves plenty of star power too,” said Matt Greci, general manager for Nashville Superspeedway. “You never know who will show up when NASCAR comes to the Music City for the Ally 400. We’re going to give Luke a fast car and see if he’s fast enough to drive away from the field of NASCAR’s best as we kick off Sunday’s showdown.”
This will not be the first time that Combs was a part of the Ally 400 festivities. He previously served as the honorary grand marshal for the race in 2021.
