We are closing out the regular season of the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup series, and weather will not be an issue for those drivers desperately trying to get into the playoffs. Expect lots of sunshine during the day, clear skies at night, and pleasant temperatures.
Dry weekend for NASCAR at Richmond Raceway 2017
Sunny skies during the day, clear skies at night. Couldn’t ask for a better race weekend in Richmond, VA.
