DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - The Duel at Daytona races on Thursday night set the field for Sunday's 67th running of the DAYTONA 500, but there's plenty of racing to watch between now and then.
Friday offers yet another busy day at the World Center of Racing, and it all kicks off with a practice for the ARCA Series ahead of Saturday's season opener. The session was supposed to be qualifying but Thursday's scheduled practice was scrubbed due to rain with the starting lineup being set by last year's owner's points. Hendrick Motorsports' Corey Day is set to participate as he prepares for his first superspeedway race. He'll start 21st in the race on Saturday.
After NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series qualifying and an Xfinity Series practice, the Cup Series makes its way back onto the 2.5-mile, famed tri-oval for its second practice session of the week, running from 5:35-6:25 p.m.
