Breaking down the ARCA Menards Series East plans for the next year, it’s honestly just a replay of the 2023 season. The East Series continues its kick-off at Five Flags Speedway on March 23rd, a combination weekend with the ASA All-Star Series. Dover Motor Speedway also returns to the schedule, now being a combination race with the ARCA Menards Series.
Flat Rock Speedway, the biggest addition from last year, once again returns to the schedule for May 18th. The ’24 East Series also features five combination races including the last four races of Iowa, Lucas Oil IRP, Milwaukee, and the finale at Bristol (adding the aforementioned Dover).

Switching coast and heading to the West Series, there are some changes and adjustments from last year to the next.
The season starts off a carbon copy of 2023 with the season kicking off at Phoenix Raceway on March 8th, then to Irwindale, the newly named Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway, the road courses of Portland and Sonoma, and then short tracks of Irwindale again and Shasta.
Things start to change here though. Tri-City Raceway in West Richland, WA, returns to the West Series for the first time since 2003. The .555-mile paved oval takes the place of Evergreen Speedway.
Madera also now moves up from its 2023 spot as the penultimate race. The season then wraps with a run of races at All American, Kern Raceway, and the finale once again happening at NASCAR’s Champion Weekend at Phoenix Raceway on November 8th.
The second date at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway now takes the place of the Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
You can catch all ARCA Menards Series East and West races live on FloRacing or Fox Sports 1.
