Description

The Food City 300 is a NASCAR Xfinity Series stock car race that takes place each August under the lights at Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee. The second race at Bristol of the season, it is held the night before the NASCAR Cup Series race the Bass Pro Shops NRA Night Race.
First held as a 150-lap event, the race has increased in length several times, first to 200 laps in 1985, and to 250 laps in 1990. In 2014, the length of the race was increased to 300 laps, making it the same number of laps as the spring race.

In a race that filled the final position for the NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoff, Chase Briscoe nudged close friend, fellow Ford driver and regular-season champion Austin Cindric out of the way with six laps left and pulled away to win Friday night’s Food City 300 at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Having lost the power steering on his No. 22 Team Penske Ford during the final run Cindric lost second place to Ross Chastain, who had led 117 laps. Chastain finished .651-seconds behind the race winner.
The victory was Briscoe’s seventh this season, his first at Bristol and the ninth of his career. Briscoe finished the regular season with 50 Playoff points, tied with Cindric, who won five of the first 26 races.
