Every year the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West makes a stop at Colorado National Speedway and it's always one of the best and most exciting races of the year at CNS. This annual race is a great time to see up-and-coming NASCAR stars as well as established veteran drivers and the K&N Series cars never fail to disappoint the fans. This years NAPA Toyota 150 will be even more special as 2 time Daytona 500 Champion Michael Waltrip will be racing in the event as well as making a pre race appearance raising funds to help the American Red Cross providing relief for the devastating wild fires that have affected so many Colorado residents. Michael will be competing in the NAPA Toyota 150 against drivers such as Eric Holmes fresh off his win at Evergreen Speedway as well as young Dylan Kwasniewski who shocked the field winning the K&N race at CNS. This season Dylan comes into CNS leading in points! Other drivers that will be racing against Waltrip will be perennial favorite Greg Pursley, David Mayhew, Derek Thorn, Jonathan Gomez just to name a few.

In addition to the K&N Series race the Sportsman, Pro Trucks, and Figure 8s will also be racing therefore it's going to be a packed house and certainly one of the biggest shows of the season at CNS. Fans will want to make sure to get their tickets early and can be purchased in advance online here at the CNS website
