The Ballroom Sessions is a new, ongoing series that will return during future major events, bringing notable figures from racing together for candid conversations and interactions. Esteemed motorsports historian and storyteller Dave Argabright will serve as the program’s anchor, guiding each session alongside special guests and fellow hosts. Volume I will feature three-time World 100 champion Jeff Purvis, 1976 World 100 winner Charlie Hughes and “Eldora’s Favorite Son,” Jack Hewitt. Argabright will be joined by Dustin Jarrett as they revisit memorable moments, share plenty of racing stories and remember the late Larry Moore. The appearance of Purvis and Hughes—neither of whom has been back to Eldora in many years—will make this inaugural gathering an especially rare treat for longtime fans. Throughout the week, the Ballroom will also feature a special Larry Moore display containing many of his personal artifacts, trophies and other treasured memorabilia.
