The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and XFINITY Series will compete at Charlotte Motor Speedway this weekend while the Camping World Truck Series is off. Please check below for the complete schedule of events.
Kevin Harvick will lead the field to the green flag on Saturday night in the Queen City. The driver of the No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet scored the pole for the Bank of America 500 after posting a time of 27.547 and a speed of 196.029 mph.
When asked the importance of winning one of the first two races so as to not need to rely on a decent finish at the wild card race of Talladega, Austin Dillon said that it's important, but "you can still have a really good finish at Talladega."
Truex dominated at Dover, leading 187 laps on his way to the win in the Citizen Soldiers 400. Truex has two wins in three Chase races and has emerged as a clear Cup favorite.
So to come to Charlotte, win the pole for the Coca-Cola 600, then set a race record by leading 392 of 400 on the way to victory, there's no doubt that Truex and the No. 78 crew truly deserved a visit to Victory Lane, especially after all that they've gone through.
CONCORD, N.C. -- Domination was the name of Martin Truex Jr.'s game tonight as he concluded the "greatest day in racing" 2016 with a victory in the Queen City. The driver of the No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Toyota led a race-high of 392 of the 400 laps on his way to winning the 57th annual Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
CONCORD, N.C. -- Denny Hamlin won the Hisense 4K TV 300 XFINITY Series Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, moving up through the field and making the pass during overtime to claim the checkered flag.
