How will the NASCAR Cup Series race play out?

Of course, the rules package for this race has also been confirmed. As it turns out, the package features engines fitted with a tapered spacer. The idea is for the cars to generate a targeted output of 550 horsepower. In addition to that, the cars will also sport an eight-inch spoiler.

Other specifications center around the tyres. As it turns out, All teams have access to nine sets of Goodyear Eagle Speedway tyres for the 400.5-mile race. This is vastly different from last year’s Vegas race in September, when the suppliers made a major change to the tyres. It is also worth noting that the first two stages of the 267-lap race are 80 laps each, with the final stage being 107 laps.

They largely focused on the right-side tread compound with the intention of increasing the overall grip. Apparently, the same parameters will be implemented for this weekend’s race as well. Finally, the NASCAR officials have set the inflation setting to 19 psi for the left-side tires, 52 psi for the right front and 48 psi for the right rear. With the weather not likely to be an issue, this will be a straight fight for the win.
