History

In advance of the 2019 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East season, the tour added a second event at Bristol.[1] The race was then shifted to the ARCA Menards Series after the KNPSE was absorbed by ARCA.[2] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the race became a points-paying event for the AMS and ARCA Menards Series East in 2020.[3]
