The Camping World Truck Series is up first on Friday, May 27th, with practice at 1:30 p.m., qualifying at 2 p.m. and the North Carolina Education Lottery at 8:30 p.m. ET. Xfinity practice and qualifying will be on Friday with the Alsco Uniforms 300 on Saturday. Cup Series practice and qualifying will be on Saturday, with the Coca-Cola 600 running at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday, May 29th.

The track is going to be wet on Friday, but it depends on the timing if it will affect the race at all. The good news is that Saturday and Sunday are looking great and dry so the Xfinity and Cup Series should be fine.
