Ever wanted to take a spin around a NASCAR track?

Pennsylvania’s Attorney General Josh Shapiro is offering you that chance.

This weekend’s Pocono 400 at the Pocono Raceway in Long Pond is, for the second straight year, the setting for the AG’s drug take back event. Bring in outdated prescription drugs and you get to drive (your car) around the track.

According to a release, last year’s event took in 60 pounds of drugs.

Fans can bring their meds to two locations — outside Gate 8 by the flagpole and inside the Paddock — from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The drive-around The Tricky Triangle will happen about one hour after Saturday’s Pocono Green 250 Recycled race. Anyone bringing meds on Sunday will receive a voucher to drive the track at a future date.

“Prescription opioids are the jet fuel of the heroin, fentanyl and opioid epidemic that is devastating Pennsylvania communities,” Shapiro said. “We know that four out of five heroin users started with prescription opioids. 70% of those who misuse opioids get them from a friend or relative’s medicine cabinet and 60% of those who are prescribed opioids end up with leftover pills.”
