One Last Race to Make the Chase

     Home | NASCAR race | One Last Race to Make the Chase



The One Last Race to Make the Chase, formerly the Chevy Rock and Roll 400, is a NASCAR Sprint Cup stock car race held at the Richmond International Raceway in Richmond, Virginia. Since 2004, the race has served as the last race in NASCAR's "regular season". After this race, the top twelve drivers in the standings (originally ten) advance to the ten-race Chase for the Sprint Cup.

As the race was rock and roll themed, the trophy is in the form of a custom painted PRS electric guitar, while select cars are run with special paint schemes that promote rock music artists.

Because of its proximity (and has been held) to Patriot Day, the Pledge of Allegiance is included as part of the opening ceremony.
