The 2.5-mile track will host a Craftsman Truck Series race on Friday, an Xfinity Series race on Saturday, and a Cup Series race on Sunday. This weekend marks the lone trip to Pocono Raceway this NASCAR season.
Kyle Busch won last season's Truck race after a late battle with Corey Heim. Austin Hill won last season's Xfinity race after gambling on fuel strategy and passing Josh Berry in overtime.
