Track activity will begin with practice on Friday, March 8th at 5:00 p.m. ET. Qualifying for Sunday will take place Saturday, March 9th at 2:00 p.m. ET. The 312-lap event will take place Sunday, March 10th at 3:30 p.m. ET and will be televised live on FOX. Fans can also listen in on the action live from Sirius XM and the Motor Racing Network.

DRIVER TODD GILLILAND:
“Going into Phoenix, we won’t really know where we stack up against everyone else until practice because of the new short track package. I know Ryan (Bergenty) and the team have been hard at work getting me the stuff I need to be successful, it just comes down to me executing.”
CREW CHIEF RYAN BERGENTY:
“Practice is going to be extra important this weekend with the new package. We’re going to have to test out a couple different setups and make sure we get the most data available from the session. Vegas didn’t go as planned, but it’s a new week to be better and work on our craft.”
