EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix
NASCAR drivers do make right turns. Well, sometimes at least. The NASCAR Cup Series goes to the first of five road/street courses on its 2024 schedule when it tackles Circuit of the Americas’ full 20-turn layout. Road courses still continue to draw intriguing part-timers despite becoming more common for NASCAR in recent years. Special entrants at COTA include sports car ace Kamui Kobayashi and three-time Supercars champion Shane van Gisbergen. Van Gisbergen impressively won his Cup debut last year and currently competes full-time in the Xfinity Series (NASCAR’s second-tier national division). Tyler Reddick is this event’s defending winner. – Derek UdensiSun., March 24 -
