With 500 student finalists, they will interact with NASCAR drivers, engineers, and other STEM professionals while competing for tickets to the street race in July."I see the kids out here in the Field Museum here and I look at the Field Museum and everything that it has to offer for these kids, the STEM and STEAM programs.
