About the NASCAR Cup Series

The NASCAR Cup Series is the top level of stock car racing in the United States. It features the most experienced drivers and best-funded teams, with a schedule of about 36 races across a variety of tracks, including superspeedways, road courses, and short tracks. The season ends with a playoff format involving 16 drivers, culminating in a four-driver championship race. Iconic events like the Daytona 500 and Coca-Cola 600 are part of the Cup calendar, and the series is known for its intense competition and large fan base.

About the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series is the third tier of national-level NASCAR competition, positioned below the Cup Series and the Xfinity Series. It was founded in 1995 as the “SuperTruck Series,” before becoming known as the Craftsman Truck Series (1996–2008), then the Camping World Truck Series (2009–2022), and returning to its original title sponsor Craftsman in 2023.
