(KLAS) - The 2025 spring NASCAR weekend kicks off in the sports and entertainment capital of the world, and it will be chock full of high-speed stakes and fan experiences in Las Vegas.
While the Penzoil 400 presented by Jiffy Lube gets the green flag on Sunday at 12:30 p.m., the NASCAR experience started as early as Thursday when the fan-favorite Hauler Parade made its way down the world-famous Las Vegas Strip.
On Friday, fans can expect high-speed action at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway as the Ecosave 200 sees the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series come to southern Nevada. Then, on Saturday, the NASCAR Xfinity Series takes to the track for The LiUNA as up-and-coming NASCAR drivers show what they've got in the desert.
Dean Thomas, an XFINITY series rookie, said he has run well in Las Vegas before, and is looking for more success in Sin City.
"It's the West Coast, so if I kind of feel at home, it's probably one of the closer tracks I have to a home race," Thomas said. "I feel pretty good about that."
And on Sunday, the rubber hits the road as the Pennzoil 400 takes to the one-and-a-half-mile track in Las Vegas. The festivities will be televised on The CW Network, FS1, and FS2 for those who can't make it to the north Las Vegas valley for all the high-speed thrills over the weekend.
Here's a rundown of where to catch the high-octane action from the comfort of your living room.
