NASCAR at Texas: Time and TV channel for Truck, Xfinity and Cup Series races

Sunday, you might as well call it Fort Würth. The German company was once known for selling fasteners, screws and whatnot, but has since expanded into a wide range of equipment. The company has been a partner of Roger Penske’s race team since 2012, and recently got into the race-entitlement business.

For what it’s worth, the Truck Series race sponsor, SpeedyCash, is pretty self-explanatory. And this weekend’s Xfinity Series race benefactor, Andy’s Frozen Custard, is a chain of franchises in 15 states.

Among Andy’s limited-time specialties these days is something called Lemon Bar Concrete, a big cup of custard described as a “perfect blend of tangy and sweet.”

You know the type.
