Pocono Raceway weekend schedule for Truck, Xfinity, Cup


All three national NASCAR series are in action this weekend for a trip to Pocono Raceway. It's time for the Tricky Triangle.

Craftsman Truck Series teams will kick off the race weekend with practice, qualifying, and a race on Friday. Xfinity Series teams will practice, qualify, and race on Saturday. Cup Series teams will practice and qualify on Saturday before racing on Sunday.
