NASCAR is returning to Texas Motor Speedway next weekend.
It's the middle race in the Round of 8 Cup playoffs, which get underway today at Kansas Speedway. Kevin Harvick and Denny Hamlin are the favorites to win the championship.
As always, TMS' fall race weekend has plenty of built-in drama for fans to watch.
The track is open to the public for a double-header on Sunday Oct. 25 with a truck series playoff race (the SpeedyCash.com 400) at 11 a.m. followed by a Cup playoff race (the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500) at 2:30 p.m.
The Xfinity Series race (the O'Reilly Auto Parts 300) will run at 3:30 p.m. Saturday without fans.
