Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips 400
The Quicken Loans 400 is a 400-mile (643.737 km) NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race held annually at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Michigan, and it is the first of two Sprint Cup races at Michigan. In 2006, 3M signed a three-year agreement to sponsor the race, but after one year moved its sponsorship to the August race. Starting with the 2008 race, LifeLock had title sponsorship rights for three years pending the announcement by the speedway, but left after two. The LifeLock 400 was the name of the race formerly known as the Banquet 400 in 2007. In 2012, Quicken Loans will sponsor the race for June.
This particular event had one of the longer title sponsorship arrangements. Miller Brewing Company sponsored the race from 1984-1998.
The 1999 race, won by Dale Jarrett, went without a caution. At an average speed of 173.997 mph, it set the NASCAR all-time record for a 400-mile race.

Famous quotes containing the words sour, cream and/or dips:
“O, give me thy hand,
One writ with me in sour misfortune’s book!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It’s just like when you’ve got some coffee that’s too black, which means it’s too strong. What do you do? You integrate it with cream, you make it weak. But if you pour too much cream in it, you won’t even know you ever had coffee. It used to be hot, it becomes cool. It used to be strong, it becomes weak. It used to wake you up, now it puts you to sleep.”
—Malcolm X (1925–1965)
“I deal with farmers, things like dips and feed.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
