The 2020 Alsco 300 was a NASCAR Xfinity Series race held on May 25, 2020 at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina. Contested over 203 laps—extended from 200 laps due to an overtime finish, on the 1.5adj=onNaNadj=on asphalt speedway, it was the sixth race of the 2020 NASCAR Xfinity Series season. Cup Series driver Kyle Busch took home his first Xfinity Series victory of the year.[7]
The race was held at Charlotte Motor Speedway, which is located in Concord, North Carolina. The speedway complex includes a 1.5-mile (2.4 km) quad-oval track, as well as a dragstrip and a dirt track. The speedway was built in 1959 by Bruton Smith and is considered the home track for NASCAR, as many race teams are based in the Charlotte metropolitan area. The track is owned and operated by Speedway Motorsports Inc. (SMI), with Marcus G. Smith serving as track president.
Because to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, a 260-spectator limit was imposed, as owners of the 52 condominium owners in Turn 1 were given five tickets to the race, with all staying inside during the race.[8]
Ross Chastain was awarded the pole for the race as determined by a random draw.[9]
