Patients at the Texas Children's Hospital get special visitor

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- The Shell and Pennzoil Grand Prix of Houston is happening this weekend, but one of the drivers took some time out of his busy schedule to visit some of his young fans at the Texas Children's Hospital.

Pro Mazda driver Scott Hargrove found out three of his youngest fans are patients at the hospital. He stopped by Thursday afternoon to visit with them, sign autographs, pose for photos, and talk about his racing career.

The three day racing festival runs from today through Sunday, June 29. There will be lots of activities and you can get tickets for just $10.
