NASCAR weekend schedule: All-Star Race at Texas

NHTrKGLFRvPs
Kurt Busch says it's "special" to build 23XI Racing and it's "gratifying" to reach victory lane at Kansas. An emotional Kyle Petty also joins to tell Busch why the win is so special to his family.

The NASCAR All-Star Race is the star of the weekend, but there’s plenty on the docket this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway.

The Truck Series takes the green flag Friday for its ninth race of the year, while the Xfinity Series races Saturday afternoon for the 12th race of its schedule. All-Star festivities begin Saturday night, but the big show starts Sunday.
