A large internet disruption affecting communities across parts of Northern and Central California on Wednesday was caused by a crash, officials say.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. has kept the Truck Series racing options open for himself despite stepping into his fifties.

Benefiting from a split-second late race strategy decision, veteran Aric Almirola held off a mightily-motivated field to win Friday night’s Food City 300.

The Xfinity Series will begin its seven-race playoffs Friday night with 300 laps at Bristol Motor Speedway to open the first round.

Multiple cities are experiencing outages in internet and TV services due to "network damage," says Xfinity's website.

Day has a trio of starts at Bristol in the CRAFTSMAN Truck Series, finishing 18th, 15th and on Thursday night, 11th. The 17 team went to victory lane at Bristol in the spring with Kyle Larson taking the checkered flag.

Since he’s not in the playoffs, Xfinity driver Aric Almirola was able to gamble on tires, and it paid off by him claiming the win in Friday night’s Food City 300 NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoff opener at Bristol Motor Speedway.
