WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – The stakes get higher as Bowman Gray Stadium is set to host its first Double Points Night this season.
Drivers will get chances to either make up serious ground —or pull away from the competition— in their championship battles as every race offers double points this Saturday, May 24.
Fans could see a historic moment in Bowman Gray Stadium lore as Burt Myers has a chance to join Tim Brown in the “100 wins club” in the Brad’s Golf Cars Modified Series.
Myers picked up his 99th career victory during the May 17 Great Clips Crash Fest, and now stands one win away from the century mark.
“The 100th (win) will feel good,” Myers says, “but I’m not going to stop counting them just yet. I’m just going to keep trying to win as many as I can.”
Myers could potentially tie Brown atop the all-time wins list if he sweeps both Modified Series races this Saturday night.
Mike Speeney, though winless so far this season, hasn’t finished lower than fourth in any of his starts and leads the points by 14 over Brandon Ward, and 36 over third-place Burt Myers. Speeney says he’s trying not to worry about points right now.
“I’m just having a lot of fun,” Speeney says, “but we need to keep tuning the car and getting it better so we can get into victory lane soon.”
Meanwhile, The Law Offices of John Barrow Sportsman Series — coming off a frantic finish last week that saw “Tiger” Tommy Neal pounding his fists on Marty Wilmoth’s windshield after a last-lap crash — get their first crack at a long-distance race in the Sportsman 100.
The QRC HVAC & Refrigeration Street Stock and Q104.1 Stadium Stock Series drivers will also be in action.
Gates open at 6 p.m. Saturday night with racing action to start at 8 p.m. Fans can get tickets online right now at www.bowmangrayracing.com. Tickets are $12 for adults and $2 for kids ages 6 to 11.
The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Charlotte Motor Speedway for the Coca-Cola 600, the first race broadcast for Prime Video (6 p.m. ET, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio). Prime Video will also air Cup Series qualifying on Saturday (2:40 p.m. ET).
The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series makes its annual stop to Charlotte Motor Speedway this weekend with qualifying set for Friday at 4:40 p.m. ET on FS2.
The qualifying order below is determined via metric that combines the previous race finish by owner (70%) and current owner points position (30%). Qualifying will be one lap and just one round.
The race, the North Carolina Education Lottery 200, will take place on Friday at 8:30 p.m. ET (FS1, NASCAR Racing Network Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
Forty drivers are vying for 38 spots, meaning two cars will fail to qualify for Saturday’s race (4:30 p.m. ET, The CW, PRN Radio, Sirius XM NASCAR Radio).
Only two races remain before the inaugural NASCAR In-Season Challenge begins to take its true shape, and the battle for the final position in the field is as tight as the on-track racing itself.
The 32-driver field is set following the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway on June 1 (7 p.m. ET, Prime Video, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio). Multiple NASCAR Cup Series drivers near the threshold must capitalize over the next two races and clinch their opportunity to race for the $1 million prize in the process.
Heading into Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway (6 p.m. ET, Prime Video, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio), four drivers — Riley Herbst, Brad Keselowski, Cole Custer and Shane van Gisbergen — all stand within 13 points of each other in the driver standings with Herbst, driver of the No. 35 23XI Racing Toyota, currently holding onto the 32nd and final spot in the provisional grid. Keselowski is three points behind Herbst, followed by Custer (-12) and van Gisbergen (-13).
Luckily for the quartet, the chance to collect stage points will never be stronger than this upcoming weekend at Charlotte, with the year’s only four-stage race providing ample opportunity to tally points and create separation. So, the question: Which driver will take advantage best?
Well, there isn’t a slam-dunk favorite to do so, at least not in terms of 2025 production. Between Herbst, Keselowski, Custer and van Gisbergen, the best finish on a 1.5-mile track so far in 2025 has been 11th, with Keselowski doing so at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in March. And while the 2012 Cup Series champion has plenty of experience at the North Carolina facility — he has two wins in 25 Cup starts there dating back to 2009 — Keselowski possesses five DNFs on this year’s ledger (including three straight), which leads all Cup drivers so far this season.

Keselowski’s defense, however, comes in the form of parity relative to his fellow competitors. Keselowski, Custer and Herbst are three of six total drivers to not yet collect a top 10 this season despite starting all 12 races. And while van Gisbergen’s No. 88 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet has cracked the top 10 once this season, it came on a road course (Circuit of The Americas), a much different track compared to the intermediate characteristics Charlotte possesses.
The NASCAR In-Season Challenge will consist of five races, beginning on June 28 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Following Atlanta, the challenge will move to the Chicago Street Course on July 6, then to Sonoma Raceway on July 13, Dover Motor Speedway on July 20 and conclude at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the annual Brickyard 400 on July 27. The winner will receive a $1 million prize.
The seeding for the 32-driver bracket will be determined by the results of the final three races aired on Prime Video before the challenge begins (Michigan, Mexico City, Pocono). Drivers will be seeded based on their best finish in the three races, with tiebreakers determined by the next-best finish, followed by the season points position.
Throughout the challenge, drivers will compete head-to-head in a bracket-style competition, with the highest-finishing driver in each matchup advancing to the next round. The field will be narrowed down from 32 drivers in the opening race to 16 in the second, eight in the third, four in the fourth, and finally, two drivers battling for the challenge win in the fifth and final contest at The Brickyard.
NEW YORK (May 21, 2025) — New York Racing Team announced a partnership with Fanatics Sportsbook to become the primary sponsor of the team’s No. 44 Chevrolet, driven by J.J. Yeley for two of the NASCAR Cup Series’ most prestigious races — the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway and the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race at Phoenix Raceway.
The Fanatics Sportsbook No. 44 Chevrolet will take to the track — first in Music City on Sunday, June 1 and next in the Valley of the Sun on Sunday, Nov. 2 — decked in the company’s signature Lava Red and Black paint scheme and adorned with the Fanatics Sportsbook logo on the hood and sides of the car. It’s only fitting that Fanatics Sportsbook will grace the car for the first time in Tennessee, as the state was the first to experience the sportsbook upon its launch in 2023.
In celebration of this partnership, Fanatics Sportsbook will have exclusive new customer offers for the Nashville and Phoenix races, along with expanded NASCAR betting capabilities, such as race parlays, to finish on the podium, exacta and trifecta betting. Fanatics Sportsbook will also offer unique J.J. Yeley specials and live betting markets on Raceday.
According to Fanatics Sportsbook, Yeley is +800 to have a top-10 finish at Nashville Superspeedway and customers will also be able to place wagers on J.J. Yeley’s starting grid position, Chevrolet-specific placement, first lap results, and much more. NASCAR fans can download the Fanatics Sportsbook app on iOS and Android and begin their Fanatics betting experience.
“We are proud to partner with John Cohen and the New York Racing Team,” said Selena Kalvaria, CMO of Fanatics Betting and Gaming. “The partnership with New York Racing Team is an incredible branding opportunity and an inflection point for us as we continue to build the fastest-growing sportsbook in America. We are going to develop exclusive content for NASCAR fans and curate an elevated experience for our customers at each race that only a brand like Fanatics can offer. Our employees and customers can’t wait to cheer on the No. 44 Fanatics Sportsbook Chevrolet toward the checkered flag at Nashville Superspeedway and Phoenix Raceway.”
Nashville Superspeedway is Middle Tennessee’s racing jewel. The 1.33-mile D-shaped track with 14 degrees of banking is the largest concrete-only track in NASCAR and the perfect track for a prime time race. The sponsorship will see Fanatics Sportsbook featured on Yeley’s No. 44 Chevrolet in the Cracker Barrel 400 on Sunday, June 1 at 7 p.m. ET, broadcast live on Prime Video. The No. 44 Fanatics Sportsbook car will return at the end of the season to compete at the NASCAR Cup Series Championship at Phoenix Raceway on Sunday, November 2, 2025, which will air live on NBC.

On Wednesday, NASCAR announced the following penalties have been issued coming out of the event at North Wilkesboro Speedway:

A stone-faced Ross Chastain, majority owner and founding member of Motorsports Management International, put it simply for Ryan Ellis: You would be dumb not to do the DGM Racing deal.
Last summer, Ellis was deciding on his future. He had a two-year extension on the table to remain with Alpha Prime Racing after being the team’s primary driver since 2022. At the same time, he was weighing his options after bolstering a strong resume of sponsors in recent seasons. He could dictate where he landed.
The decision wasn’t easy, however. Ellis credits Alpha Prime for finding his love and passion for racing once again. Since bursting onto the national series scene more than a decade ago, the Virginia native has played several different roles away from the driver’s seat, including as the public relations and marketing director for Go Fas Racing with Matt DiBenedetto while also having full-time jobs outside of the sport.
And though Ellis didn’t know anybody at DGM, he felt a change was needed. So, he listened to Chastain, who has delivered a pair of top fives for DGM in limited starts.
“Looking at the middle to back half of last year, just getting frustrated with little things along the way,” Ellis told NASCAR.com of why he wanted change. “I know you always compare yourself to your teammates, and that’s the only real way to figure out what a driver is doing or how good a driver is. In a very respectful way, because I love Tommy [Joe Martins, Alpha Prime’s co-owner] and I love Alpha Prime, but I felt like the [No.] 44 was on a much different deal than the 43, and the 43 was a notch above the 45. I love Brennan and everyone at that team — my crew was awesome — but I wanted to make sure that I positioned myself for the optics to look good.”
Drivers within the DGM walls have been known to overachieve throughout the years. Josh Williams tallied a team-high six top-10 finishes during the 2020 season. Alex Labbe became a real threat on road courses during multiple stints, and last year, Kyle Weatherman earned a pair of top 10s.
It was time for Ellis — who is still chasing his coveted first top 10 finish in 175 NASCAR starts — to challenge himself. He is paired with Mario Gosselin, who serves as the team owner and crew chief for the No. 71 Chevrolet. Gosselin always has his competitive juices flowing, wanting to maximize DGM’s potential.
“That’s why I do this,” Gosselin said. “I don’t try to survive, go home and go to the next one — we want to go race. We can’t afford to tear stuff up every week, but I’ve won races — not necessarily in Xfinity — and championships. That competitiveness, I still have it. Just because I’m not driving, we’re not going out there to try to complete all the laps and come home with a participation award.”
Gosselin is an ideal counterbalance to Ellis, who believes the reins are loose for the first time in his career.
“I feel like I’ve always had the owner hat on being a small-team guy my whole life, even racing legends cars and late models,” Ellis said. “When Tommy would pull the reins back and give us a speech or strategy of hanging back, it would double or triple down what I was thinking. At Daytona, Mario was like, ‘We’re here to [expletive] race.’ I had never been told that before. I’ve realized it has made my mindset going into race weekends so much easier because we’re racing cars.”
It’s staggering for Ellis to be in his current position. Four years ago, he was working multiple full-time gigs, using racing as a side hustle. But as a typical racer’s mind thinks, he believes it can always be better.
“The competitive side of me would only see things that I don’t have,” Ellis said. “I’m the happiest I’ve ever been in my entire life, knowing that I have a full-time job, making enough money to build a solid future for my daughters.
“It feels fulfilling to be a race car driver. I don’t want to lose that ever again because I felt like that in 2016. It wasn’t dark years, but I didn’t feel like I had a purpose in life other than making my wife happy and my dogs happy and counting down days at that point. Now, I can’t wait for tomorrow.”
The opening three months of the NASCAR Xfinity Series season have been trying for Ellis. He sits 28th in the championship standings, the second-lowest position among the full-time drivers. Gosselin can recall more than 50 points that the No. 71 team has given away, whether it be from late wrecks or mechanical woes.
The mesh of personalities has been good, though, with Ellis giving solid feedback to the No. 71 team. This positive meshing will look to continue this Saturday at Charlotte Motor Speedway (4:30 p.m. ET, The CW, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio), with the field returning to action for the first time in three weeks.
“I think the biggest thing was he is always there at the end,” Gosselin said, with the No. 71 team having only one DNF through 12 races. “We’ve got to work on our raw speed and qualify a little bit and get him a little bit aggressive. That’s always a fine line.
“I feel like if we’re not running top 20, I’m not happy. But then you finish just outside the top 20 and you look at who outran you and it’s like, ‘Damn, the competition has gotten really deep in the field.’ Top 20s are what we’re after.”
Ellis is already looking ahead to the 2026 season. Many of his current partners who followed him from Alpha Prime to DGM have already discussed returning and helping propel the 35-year-old forward. The goal is to remain with DGM.
The Coca-Cola 600 at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday at Charlotte Motor Speedway marks the inaugural NASCAR Cup Series race broadcast on Prime Video, welcoming a new era to the sport as the broadcast partner launches stock-car racing into the world of streaming.
There will be plenty of new touches that come with Prime Video’s introduction, as anticipated with any broadcast partner making its first foray into a sport. There will be, however, a considerable amount of familiarity for longtime NASCAR fans, most notably the voices they will hear.
Play-by-play announcer Adam Alexander leads the booth alongside NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr. and crew chief Steve Letarte, both of whom previously called races together for NBC Sports. Leading pre- and post-race coverage will be another familiar face in Danielle Trotta alongside Hall of Famer Carl Edwards and Corey LaJoie, Cup Series driver and host of the “Stacking Pennies” podcast.
Additionally, 2011 Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne will join TV veterans Kim Coon and Marty Snider as pit road reporters.
So while Prime intends to leave its own imprint on the NASCAR broadcasting space, the basics are what it intends to nail out of the gate.
“The first impression that was made to me by everyone with NASCAR on Prime and Prime Sports in general,” Alexander said in a Monday teleconference, “is just to come in and respect the foundation that’s been laid in the sport of NASCAR. And I think it would be easy for someone, when you look at new partners coming into the sport, that everything is going to be changed. And it jumped off the board to me right away, the balance of new but also the respect to traditions that we’re used to in the TV world and how that matches up with NASCAR. That was something that was very attractive to me as we started having conversations about putting this deal together.
“So there’s been tremendous dialogue about ideas. But the one thing that I would say is there’s a high level of respect of the history of NASCAR and the way this sport is presented. And while there are tremendous new ideas that will come in through technology — and those are things that you will see unfold this weekend — I would say that we’re not going to get too far away from the foundation of what makes a NASCAR broadcast what it is.”
That is an intentional direction throughout the Prime Video team. Senior Coordinating Producer Alex Strand has been associated with bringing the National Football League and Premier League soccer to Prime Video, and similar care with those sports became lessons learned as Prime prepped for NASCAR. Add in a crown-jewel event like the Coca-Cola 600 to debut its coverage, and the stage is set for an immediate splash.
“We can’t be more excited to be starting with a crown jewel,” Strand said. “I think that’s my big sort of headliner. We think it’s a huge responsibility. We really take it seriously, and we’re really excited to bring that to fans. What we’ve seen when we’ve brought Thursday Night Football NFL into Prime, we saw it when we brought the English Premier League to customers throughout the UK. We spent a lot of time making sure that we’re delivering on sort of a core expectation. You know, there’s trust that viewers are putting in you to bring them the sport that they love. We take that very seriously.
“That doesn’t change if we’re starting with a crown jewel or we’re starting with a non-points race. We care about bringing the product to fans in a quality way and entertaining them. We’re fans first, and we care just as much about the experiences as fans do at home.”

While Sunday will mark Prime’s debut, it will also mark an inauguration for Edwards and LaJoie in their respective roles. For much of the last decade, Edwards had been away from the sport, unsure it would welcome him back so heartily after he essentially cut ties following his January 2017 retirement. It very much has, however — with honors such as Hall-of-Fame enshrinement and acknowledgment as one of NASCAR’s 75 Greatest Drivers. Now comes the emotions of picking up the microphone to broadcast the sport after “falling in love with racing again.”
“Man, I’m excited,” Edwards said. “I think I should be really nervous, but I don’t know if I am yet. For me, it’s a lot like going to my first Cup race. It’s like, man, I really don’t know what to expect. I feel like I’m kind of prepared, but I’m just so grateful for this team, to be with Steve and Dale and Corey and Danielle and Alex, everybody — all these people now. It’s wild how much talent is here and represented by this Prime broadcast. And that part really makes me feel comfortable. So I’m just ready to go have some fun. I think this is really going to be cool.”
And while streaming platforms are still fairly new to some, Edwards is confident NASCAR fans will quickly make their way to the platform.
“I was on the phone with a farmer that owns some neighboring property to ours, and we’re talking about other things,” Edwards said. “And he said, ‘Hey, you’re doing some sort of TV thing!’ And I was thinking, you know, this guy’s 85 years old, and I’m gonna have to explain this to him. And I started, and he’s like, ‘Oh, yeah, I got Prime! I’ll be watching.’ I was like, ‘Oh, OK! … I really think that they’ve [Prime Video] paved the way with the other sports that they’ve been a part of, and I think that’s going to transition well here to NASCAR.”
As Letarte said Monday, the key to nailing the broadcast out of the gates is simply “don’t reinvent it.” That mindset permeates the booth.
“Fundamentals win in everything, right?” Alexander echoed. “If you’ve got a good fundamental base, then you’ve got a real opportunity to be successful. And I think Steve touched on something, and it’s a philosophy that I’ve always carried anywhere I’ve been, regardless of sport, regardless of network, and that is, people tune in to see the competition.
“And that’s not to say that we don’t want to have fun or we don’t want to be entertaining. We do, absolutely. But you can’t get caught up in that and put yourself in front of why people tuned in. And on Sunday evening, people are going to watch NASCAR on Prime because they want to see who wins the Coke 600. And while we’ll go through the process of presenting that, I think, fundamentally, the approach needs to be selling the product that’s on the track and presenting that in a way that people at home will understand.”
Coverage of the 2025 Coca-Cola 600 kicks off at 6 p.m. ET Sunday on Prime Video, PRN Radio and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — For a brief, anxious moment Tuesday afternoon, Kurt Busch said he felt like he was back behind the wheel. The stomach butterflies that would crop up before the green flag rushed back for the 46-year-old, who sat front and center in the NASCAR Hall of Fame as the names were read for the newly elected Class of 2026.
“I felt like it was race mode,” Busch said, admitting to those nerves. “I had to put the emotional blinders on.”
Busch’s name was the last to be called Tuesday, ushering him into the stock-car shrine with fellow new members Harry Gant and Ray Hendrick alongside Landmark Award recipient Humpy Wheeler. When the video montage of his career highlights flashed in front of him, Busch said the flood of emotions mixed the past, present and future all together.
The past, he admitted, was one dotted by rough patches in his life and marked by a swift rise into the sport’s upper ranks. His future now includes a celebration with his fellow honorees come next January.
“For me, as just a blue-collar kid out of Vegas, I never would have imagined this,” Busch said. “We were a family where it was just a hobby. It’s like a hobby to race, you know. It was just fun to go to the track as father and son. My dad had his car, and he helped me build mine, and you meet this guy or you meet this sponsor or you say thank you to this person, and the next thing you know — I mean, I’ll talk about this later on at the speech — but I’m running a Legend Car in 1999 at the (Las Vegas) Bullring in September of 1999. September of 2000, I’m in Jack Roush’s Cup car qualifying at Dover. Jeff Gordon’s next to me. Dale (Earnhardt) Senior’s behind me. I mean, that’s how fast things happened for me. I don’t know how. I don’t know why.
“There was no template. There wasn’t the ladder that you see a lot of the kids these days that have a system where it’s ‘we’re gonna do this, we’re gonna do this.’ A lot of mine was being in the right place at the right time, and the universe smiled down on me.”
Busch had been in a reflective mood in the days leading up to Tuesday’s Voting Day, using his social media channels to share the highs and lows from his nearly three decades in racing. Busch’s driving days at the Cup Series level ended in the summer of 2022, when an injury in a crash during qualifying at Pocono Raceway short-circuited his career.
That career was marked by brilliant highs — 34 Cup Series wins, the 2004 championship and a Daytona 500 victory in 2017. But that long tenure also included dramatic lows that ruffled the feathers of team owners, racing officials and media — many of whom were in the voting room. After Tuesday’s announcement, Busch offered a note of thanks, especially expressing his appreciation to the car owners who took a chance on him, “even after I’d stubbed my toe a few times.”
“I think the late Jim Hunter said it best to me once when I was in some trouble,” Busch recalled, singling out the longtime NASCAR communications rep and a past Landmark Award winner. “He said, ‘Son, you can get in as much trouble as you want because you have that much talent to dig yourself out of these holes you keep putting yourself in. But wouldn’t it be better if you didn’t dig those holes and you could just stay on top, riding with your talent?’ So it took a lot of lessons, but this was a fun announcement, and can’t wait to tell more stories to everyone on what this sport has meant to me and how I’ll still be around.”

There was a long line of well-wishers for Busch in the NHOF Great Hall. Former teammate and fellow nominee Greg Biffle was among the first to give him an embrace, followed by greetings from the Class of 2025’s Ricky Rudd and Landmark winner Wheeler. Seven-time Cup champ Jimmie Johnson (Class of 2024) waited to give his own special salutation.
Busch and Johnson had plenty of overlap in their major-league careers, and that meant a handful of noteworthy run-ins given their tendency for close side-by-side racing at the front of the pack. From those mutual competitive natures developed a mutual level of respect, one that Johnson says has grown in recent years.
“We certainly had strong opposing feelings for one another at different points, but it’s wild, man,” Johnson told NASCAR.com. “You put the helmet on and just kind of become a different person, and he and I have always gotten along really well outside of the car, and certainly in these last five, eight years, I don’t know, our relationship has gone to new levels. With his injury, the role that he’s playing now, I know it’s filling him up in a different way. He’s been very supportive of me. He came to my Hall of Fame induction and the after-party, we’ve seen a fair amount of each other over the last little bit of time and happy to see him go in.
“For me, ultimately from my seat on the bus, an amazing career. He unfortunately didn’t go out on his terms, but he has stayed engaged, he’s found new purpose, and then this moment and experiencing it and knowing how he’s going to feel in January after he leaves that stage, he didn’t maybe get the finish he dreamed of, but I think he’s going to end up with a finish that would greatly exceed that dream he had as a kid.”
For his part, Busch said he was at peace with how his career ended, driving hard for the pole position and still performing near his peak as a veteran of the sport’s highest level. He said that Pocono officials had invited him to come back as a dignitary for next month’s race weekend, which would mark his first trip to the 2.5-mile track since his crash there.
But Busch said that now as a Hall of Famer, he planned to stay active in promoting the sport, consulting with teams and serving as an ambassador. “There’s no way that I’ll be stepping away,” Busch said.
Whether that means a potential return to the fires of competition, perhaps on a recreational level, Busch didn’t rule out the possibility.
“We’ll see. We’ll see. I see my nephew tearing up the dirt tracks,” Busch said, making reference to brother Kyle Busch’s son, Brexton. “I think his first Legends race is this Thursday, up at Hickory Motor Speedway. I’ll be there. He’s going to be the one to get me back behind the wheel.”
