Watkins Glen 355 – Watkins Glen International

August 6th

Year after year Watkins Glen continues to be the best pure action racetrack on the schedule. Fans have taken a liking to road course racing and the drivers have upped their game. Watkins Glen offers a little bit of everything. Close short track style action, high speeds, strategy, and close finishes.

The road courses of Sonoma and Watkins Glen may be the two tracks where the new points system changes racing strategy the most. We could talk for hours about potential strategies teams may come up with to gain maximum points. At the end of the day it will be a great show for NASCAR fans.
