Just saw this in the paper today. Thye double header schedule for
next
year.
It says the same car will run both races. What if you crash out of race
1? Do you miss race 2?
I read your post and question.
I am not sure.
Here are some things to read:

"“After (Race 1), we will give the competitors back their cars, and they
can do all their maintenance,” said Scott Miller, NASCAR senior vice president of competition. “They can’t really run the 700 miles without having their cars back for general service and all that.
“So we’ll give them their cars back. They will likely change valve
springs and work on any slight damage from the race and all the
maintenance to prepare for 350-mile Race 2.”

“We still have some work to do on the rules of the competition.”
Thursday:
ARCA Qualifying
200 mile ARCA race
Friday:
Cup practice and qualifying
Truck practice and qualifying
Saturday:
Xfinity practice
200 mile truck race
Cup race #1 (most likely 350 miles)
Sunday:
Xfinity qualifying
225 mile Xfinity race
Cup race #2 (most likely 350 miles)
What do you think? If a single 500 mile race was too long, do you
really want to sit through qualifying AND 575 miles of racing?
There's sure to be some down time between events, so it's not like
they just lengthened one race. It's gonna be LONG day.
