ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (KQTV) -- More than 120 cadets from Central and Benton High School's Army JROTC represented the St. Joseph and Northwest Missouri community at the Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. 

The cadets were invited to take part in the pre-race ceremonies on Sept. 27, giving them a chance to represent their schools and community while showcasing the leadership, discipline and community spirit of St. Joseph.

Before the race got underway, the students also got to experience NASCAR racing simulators, interact with NASCAR personnel and meet some of the drivers.
