Diamond-selling artist Big Boi has been named the Honorary Pace Car Official for the Ambetter Health 400 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Known for his role in the hip hop duo Outkast, Big Boi will lead NASCAR's stars to the green flag on February 23.

Big Boi, who gained fame with hits like "Ms. Jackson" and "The Way You Move," has sold over 25 million albums and won seven GRAMMY Awards with Outkast. He launched his solo career in 2010 with "Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty," which reached #3 on the Billboard Top 200. His single "All Night" from the album Boomiverse became widely popular after featuring in an Apple Animoji commercial.

As Pace Car Official, Big Boi will guide the NASCAR Cup Series grid through opening pace laps at Atlanta’s high banks before releasing them for a 400-mile race.

The Ambetter Health 400 is part of Atlanta's spring NASCAR weekend, featuring races across all three national touring series. The event includes the Fr8 Racing 208 NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series and Bennett Transportation and Logistics 250 NASCAR Xfinity Series races on February 22, followed by the main event on February 23.

Tickets for the weekend are available at www.AtlantaMotorSpeedway.com.
