NASCAR weekend schedule at New Hampshire: Friday practices through Sunday’s Sprint Cup race

5 hour enery loo

If you want lots of racing action this weekend, look no further than the on-track events at the Magic Mile, otherwise known as New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Starting Thursday, the one-mile flat oval in bucolic Loudon, N.H., plays host to four different NASCAR racing series.

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series East Series will be on the track Thursday and Friday (with a race at 6 pm ET), while the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour – always a favorite in New Hampshire – will be on the track Friday and Saturday (race at 2 pm ET).

And, of course, there will be plenty of Cup and Xfinity practices, qualifying and races from Friday to Sunday. The Lakes Region 200 Xfinity Series race takes place Saturday afternoon at 4 pm ET, while the weekend’s main event, the 5-Hour Energy 301 Sprint Cup race, takes place Sunday at 1:30 pm ET.
