We head to Bristol for short track racing.

All three series will be in action at the famous half-mile track. A lot of beating and banging will be in store as it’s usually the only way to pass here.

Trucks (Friday 7:30 pm ET), O’Reilly’s (Saturday 7:30 pm ET) and Sunday Cup (3 pm ET).

Two night races this week, which I love.

Several Cup regulars will be racing in trucks, including Kyle Busch, Corey Heim and Carson Hocevar.

Busch used to be an automatic huge favorite in the -160 range anytime he dropped down to race trucks but he hasn’t been near as dominant since he sold his Kyle Busch Motorsports outfit to Spire. Still, you can never count him out. And he will obviously be one of the favorites, if not the favorite.

Heim, who won 12 times in the trucks series and won the championship last year, has won the last two races he’s entered this year in the series. Dominated last weekend before a close call at the end.

Larson drops down to race in the O’Reilly’s series and will be the clear favorite. He loves the track and has had success here in the past.

Young phenom Connor Zilisch, who won a record 10 O’Reilly’s series races last season and is now running Cup, will also be racing in the O’Reilly’s series this weekend.

Usual suspects - Larson, Bell, Denny, Byron and Blaney - are early favorites for Sunday Cup.
Put it with the golf!!!
