how to watch the nascar cup south point 400 this weekend

NASCAR's playoffs are in full bore, and the third round begins Saturday at Las Vegas. Here's how to watch the South Point 400.

Coverage begins at 5:30 p.m. E.T. on USA, with the "Countdown to Green" pre-race show beginning a half-hour earlier. Streamers can catch the race on HBO Max, and those stuck in the car can listen on Sirius XM. Check your listings for the station.

True race fans who want to see practice and qualifying can catch practice on TruTV at 4:30 p.m. E.T. on Saturday, October 11, with qualifying following at 5:40 p.m. E.T.

The final eight drivers are Denny Hamlin, Ryan Blaney, Kyle Larson, William Byron, Christopher Bell, Chase Elliott, Chase Briscoe, and defending champion Joey Logano. Bell, Elliott, Briscoe, and Logano all currently stand below the cutline in terms of points needed to be part of the final four for next month's championship race.

For those tuning in for the other NASCAR series, Xfinity runs the Focused Health 302 at 7:30 p.m. E.T. on Saturday, Oct. 11, and the Craftsman Truck Series is not running this week.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Andarris Here in the Toronto area I haven't seen a 2006-2012 with intact rocker pannels for over two years now. I presume everywhere around the Great Lakes is the same ? They were super cheap dhring the first two years of the pandemic - could get one with less than 85K for around $6500 certified or a little higher mileage for $5000. Glad I skipped it, even in 2021 some of the 10's &11's were displaying corosion like you'd see on a 7 year older Impala, Camry or Accord. Also the mid-model switch to EPS made me balk at the few clean ones I found.

Big Al from Oz gidday mites how are yall feelin today? Want to have a barbie? We are right here gettin dee fire ready
Michael S6 The 3 Amigos better hope that the oil spike is short lived as 4-5 dollar a gallon gas would put a damper on their cash cows especially "Ford's strategic shift" of killing off the escape/Lincoln cousin. Most other automakers have a full line of vehicles with much better full economy. GM is sucking air and its Cadillac devision is mostly EV and geriatric line up of ICE cars and SUV's that were supposed to be phased out this year. The expensive gas may push shoppers toward EV but GM's horrible EV reliability is a barrier.
Tane94 I read the GM press release about first quarter sales 2026 vs 2025 and Buick is getting its butt kicked:Buick Total* 41,654 61,822 -32.6 The future is bleak for Buick.
