Background Bristol Motor Speedway, formerly known as Bristol International Raceway and Bristol Raceway, is a NASCAR short track venue located in Bristol , Tennessee . Constructed in 1960, it held its first NASCAR race on July 30, 1961. Despite its short length, Bristol is among the most popular tracks on the NASCAR schedule because of its distinct features, which include extraordinarily steep banking, an all concrete surface, two pit roads , and stadium -like seating.
In 2021, the race shifted to a dirt surface version of the track and was renamed the Pinty's Truck Race on Dirt. [ 3] On January 25, 2021, NASCAR announced the stage lengths of all events in all three series. According to the stage lengths, it states the race will consist of 150 laps.

However, the team had bought a chassis from CMI Motorsports , which was not then not transferred to be registered for the G2G Racing team. Facing withdrawal, G2G Racing owner Tim Viens begged CMI Motorsports owner, Ray Ciccarelli , to be able to use the CMI Motorsports name, as the team had withdrawn from all NASCAR racing and had only been scheduled to do local dirt track racing.
