The images in this collection are from the 2002 Coca-Cola 600 purse announcement held at Charlotte Motor Speedway in front of Smith Tower. In typical Humpy Wheeler fashion, the announcement featured members of the 2002 Coca-Cola Racing Family and a carnival-like atmosphere with a tiger and other theatrics. The purse for the 2002 Coca-Cola 600 was a record-breaking $10,961,324.
