Tip: Don’t overthink — just keep reading.
The Xfinity Series: The Loop 110 (because apparently, Chicago has elevensies now?) This curtain-raiser for the main event takes the checkered flag at 2:30 PM CT on Saturday, July 6th. Think of it as the opening act, a chance to warm up your vocal cords for all the cheering you'll be doing.
