The three national NASCAR series are in action this weekend for a trip to Middle Tennessee. They will take on Nashville Superspeedway under the lights.
The Craftsman Truck Series will kick off the weekend with a Friday night race. The Xfinity Series teams will then race on Saturday evening. The Cup Series teams will cap off the weekend with the Cracker Barrel 400 night race.
This season's schedule features a significant change as Nashville moves from its annual late-June slot to the end of May.
