NASCAR has decided to modify the start time of the Dollar Tree 301 race, which will take place this Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The race will start an hour earlier than planned, at 2 PM EST, due to a threat of bad weather.
The tire company Goodyear has available tires for rainy conditions, which were already used at NHMS in a race in 2024. Furthermore, no changes have been made to the Saturday schedule, and the track has released a new schedule for race day.
Updated schedule for Sunday at NHMS
Day activities will begin at 7 AM EST with the opening of the parking lots, followed by the opening of the ticket booths at 8:30 AM. At 10 AM, fan zones will open, as well as entrances and hospitality. Access to the track for fans is also expected between 11:30 AM and 1:45 PM.
The drivers’ meeting is scheduled for 1 PM, accompanied by the introduction of drivers at 1:25 PM. Finally, the command to start engines will be given at 2 PM, with the green flag expected at 2:20 PM.
New Hampshire Motor Speedway will host this race as the second to last before defining the 16 drivers who will participate in the Chase of the playoffs. Live coverage can be followed through USA.
It is noteworthy that Ryan Blaney is the defending champion of the race at NHMS, and during this weekend a race of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series will also take place at the ‘Magic Mile’.
