​Out of the woods in Northern Connecticut comes a racetrack with a long, storied history. This weekend, the famous Lime Rock Park road course stands in stark contrast to the bright spotlight shining on Atlanta, where NASCAR’s premier series return to one of their oldest ovals — officially known today as EchoPark Speedway at Atlanta Motor Speedway. The ARCA and Truck Series will take the track at Lime Rock on Friday and Saturday, while the Cup Series and the Xfinity/OSO (O’Reilly) Series will tackle the high-speed, high-traffic quad-oval just south of the city.
NASCAR action will unfold on two different fronts: Lime Rock will host the ARCA and Truck Series events, and Atlanta’s speedway will host the Cup and O’Reilly Series races. For fans hoping to stream or catch the action, NASCAR will be live on Sling, with locations and times varying by event.
