Charlotte to serve 6.5-lb burritos, 6-lb burgers at All-Star Race

The track that gave us the Funnel Bacakonator is back with some more crazy concessions.

Charlotte Motor Speedway announced Friday that it will serve a 6.5-pound burrito and a six-pound burger during the All-Star Race weekend on May 15-16.

Yes, those measurements are in pounds and not ounces. If you're looking for something less hefty, you can always go with the candied bacon on a stick the track introduced with the burrito and the burger.

First, the details on the burrito.

The "Crank Shaft Burrito," which will cost $25, has four tortillas, 1.5 pounds of beans, 1.5 pounds of cole slaw and 3 pounds of pulled pork. It also has a half-pound of cheese sauce plus a quarter-pound of jalapenos and "more" baked beans, slaw and pork. If you're scoring at home, you'll notice that the ingredients add up to more than 6.5 pounds, so depending on the amount of "more," you could score a seven-pound burrito.

Oh, it's also 1,685 calories, which doesn't seem as outlandish as it could be.

The burger is the "Speedway Picnic Burger" and has eight quarter-pound burgers and eight hot dogs. It also contains 1.5 pounds of pulled pork and a pound of bacon, though it only has eight slices of cheese. We were hoping for 10.

It also includes lettuce and tomato, but really, you're not buying that burger for the vegetables, are you? It's on a 14-inch bun and is 2,156 calories.

At $35, the burger nets you 61.6 calories per dollar while the burrito is approximately 67.4 calories per dollar. Yes, when you're a former fat kid you sometimes do these type of calculations to see what gets you more caloric bang for your buck.

The burger is also wrapped in a tablecloth for the full picnic experience, though we're just thinking it's because the lines between napkin and tablecloth become blurred when you're wrapping food of that size.

The track promotes both items as shareable, however we've got a feeling that there will be many people attempting solo conquests. In this age of American gluttony we won't truly be amazed unless someone eats them both in a two-hour timeframe. We guarantee someone is going to try it, and if you're that somebody, let us know. We'd love to know if the task was accomplishable, and if so, how you felt in the hours afterwards.
