The Goodyear test comes in advance of the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday, May 25, when the 66th edition of NASCAR’s longest event will kick off Amazon Prime’s five-race broadcast schedule. That weekend will also feature races for the Xfinity Series on Saturday, May 24, and both the Craftsman Truck Series and ARCA Menards Series on Friday, May 23.

  • Ryan Blaney, No. 12 Team Penske Ford

  • Chase Briscoe, No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota

  • William Byron, No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet


Xfinity Series
