NASCAR is heading down to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway for the Pennzoil 400. To begin things, we have the Camping World Truck Series Qualfying on Friday at 5:00 p.m. ET and . The race will air on FS1. On Saturday at 7:00 p.m. ET, the Xfinity Series will run the Qualifying race, which will air on FS1.

The high will hit its lowest of the week on Saturday with 56 degrees, then jumping back to a cool 61 for Sunday’s events.
