Stock Car Scoop: What Can NASCAR Expect From Next Gen at Gateway?

There’s a first time for everything in NASCAR, right?

While the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series has visited World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway before, it’s a pair of firsts for NASCAR’s other two divisions: The Cup Series visits the aforementioned track for the first time, while the Xfinity Series travels to Oregon for a date with Portland International Raceway, a road course.

Adam Cheek is joined by Dalton Hopkins to discuss what the Next Gen’s racing at Gateway might look like, since the Illinois track is so unlike any other on the schedule, while also looking out west at potential contenders for a win on the road course in Portland.
