NASCAR Bristol race March 2024: Start time, TV, streaming, lineup for Food City 500
View Date:2024-12-23 21:18:20
NASCAR began the 2024 season with the Busch Light Clash exhibition race at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. This weekend, the series heads to the venue nicknamed “The Last Great Colosseum.”
The NASCAR Cup Series speeds into Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday and will race on the track’s traditional concrete surface after using a dirt track for the past three spring races. Bristol in 2021 covered the high-banked, .0533-mile bullring in red Tennessee clay for its spring race, but as the novelty wore off, drivers grew tired of the gimmick and the sub-par racing.
So, NASCAR has returned to its roots, and teams will face their first true short-track test of the season with a Next Gen car that has disappointed both drivers and fans on its smaller tracks and was redesigned to improve performance – specifically on short tracks – for 2024.
