The weekends are not getting any lighter with racing action anytime soon. IMSA and the Craftsman Truck Series are on hiatus, but all of the other series covered by the website are hitting the track. For the NASCAR Cup Series, the regular season finale will finish with the final crown jewel event of the season. Will a driver needing a win to get into the playoffs nab the last one of the regular season? Meanwhile, the Xfinity Series will be littered with Cup Series drivers pulling double duty. Speaking of double, it is a doubleheader at the Milwaukee Mile for IndyCar this weekend. As for ARCA, they head off to Illinois for short track racing.
