Perfect race day weather forecast for the Bojangles’ Southern 500

No weather worries for this Throw Back weekend at Darlington Raceway

Picture perfect weather Sunday night for the NASCAR Monster Energy Bojangles’ Southern 500. Warm day and a nice warm night at Darlington Raceway. Race temperatures will start in the 80s and fall into the 70s by the end of the race.

Odds of racing the Bojangles’ Southern 500 is 100 percent.

Truck Series is racing Sunday evening at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Ontario. Rain is in the forecast but because this is a road course I think the NASCAR Truck Series also uses rain tire. Race is at 2:30 pm EDT - weather will be mostly cloudy with showers possible and temperatures in the upper 60s to near 70.
