The NASCAR Monster Energy Cup Series heads to ISM Raceway for the penultimate race of the 2019 season and an elimination event, as only four drivers will head to Homestead-Miami when Sunday’s race is over.
39 cars are entered for the event, so all will make the race, barring any additions to the entry list.
John Hunter Nemechek once again fills in for Matt Tifft in Front Row Motorsports’ No. 36, having finished 21st in his series debut last week at Texas. He’ll race against father Joe Nemechek, who’s in the No. 27 for Premium Motorsports.
B.J. McLeod, Bayley Currey and J.J. Yeley will be in Rick Ware Racing’s No. 51, 52 and 53 cars, respectively, while Joey Gase returns to MBM Motorsports’ No. 66.
