DoubleTree Hilton Collinsville-St. Louis Named Official Race Hotel For X-DRL’s X-treme Gateway Showdown

The X-treme Drag Racing League is pleased to announce that the DoubleTree Hilton Collinsville-St. Louis has been named the official race hotel for the X-DRL’s X-treme Gateway Showdown, which marks the X-DRL’s debut in St. Louis.

The event takes place on June 14-15 at Gateway Motorsports Park and is the fourth race in the X-DRL’s inaugural 2013 season. DoubleTree Hilton Collinsville-St. Louis is partnering with the X-DRL, allowing fans, race teams and sponsors the opportunity to stay at a premier hotel that is located less than 10 miles from Gateway Motorsports Park at a special rate of only $99.

Annually recognized as one of the premier hotels in the area, the DoubleTree Hilton Collinsville/St. Louis also serves as a luxurious destination for the X-DRL’s first visit to St. Louis and Gateway Motorsports Park.

“We are extremely excited for this event and it’s great to welcome the X-DRL to St. Louis and have them at Gateway Motorsports Park. It’s going to be a lot of fun, and events like the X-DRL always draw a strong crowd,” DoubleTree by Hilton Collinsville-St. Louis Sales Manager Kara St. Cin said.

“This is the closest full-service hotel to the track on the Illinois side and there are a number of great features to the hotel, including our huge parking lot that has more than 550 parking spaces. We’ve got our wonderful Porter’s Steakhouse as well, and we are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We’ve got a lot to offer, and that’s made us a popular choice for racers and fans who are visiting Gateway.”

The upscale hotel, which was recently renovated, offers a variety of first-class amenities, including an indoor pool, fitness center, spacious and modern rooms, and superior hotel full-service dining. The hotel’s location also gives it a close proximity to a number of area attractions in the St. Louis area.

“We are thrilled to make this announcement for first trip to Gateway Motorsports Park. This the perfect place for fans, teams and sponsors to stay to help make their weekend a memorable one,” X-DRL Account Executive Keith Goolsby said.
