Following last weekend’s race at Martinsville Speedway, the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series heads south to North Carolina for exciting action at the 0.94-mile Rockingham Speedway on Saturday (2:30 p.m. ET, The CW, MRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
With the Cup Series having an off weekend, the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series will get additional time in the spotlight as the featured event Saturday afternoon at “The Rock.” Sammy Smith is the defending race winner. The contest will also serve as the qualifier race for this season’s Dash 4 Cash stretch, slated to begin on April 11 at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Garrett Mitchell, also known as Cleetus McFarland, is set to make his O’Reilly Auto Parts Series debut, driving the No. 33 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet. McFarland made his debut in the Craftsman Truck Series earlier this year in the season opener at Daytona International Speedway.
