Public invited to meet NASCAR legend Bobby Allison at Elmhurst Historical Museum

ELMHURST – It’s not every day that racing fans have a chance to encounter a NASCAR Hall of Fame driver of Bobby Allison's caliber.

Named one of the 50 Greatest Drivers of All Time, Allison has many accolades to his name — 85 NASCAR wins, three-time winner of the Daytona 500, six-time winner of NASCAR’s Most Popular Driver award, 1983 Winston Cup Series Champion, and more than $7 million in career winnings.

From 5 to 7 p.m. April 4, the Elmhurst Historical Museum welcomes visitors to mingle with one of NASCAR’s legendary drivers during a meet-and-greet with Allison.
