Stock car races in the now-NASCAR Xfinity Series were held atNazareth Speedway inNazareth, Pennsylvania between1988 to2004, after the owners,International Speedway Corporation, closed the facility. The race was replaced with a race (currently known asMission 200 at The Glen) atWatkins Glen, another ISC-owned track.
The race was originally held for 300 laps, but shortened to 200 laps in 1991.Tim Fedewa andRon Hornaday Jr. are the only two drivers with multiple wins in this race, both winning the event twice.
After the closure of the track, the Xfinity Series would return to racing in Pennsylvania when Pocono Raceway held its inaugural Xfinity Series event, the Pocono Green 250 in 2016. It was won by Kyle Larson after it was shortened by rain showers after just 53 of the scheduled 100 laps. Elliott Sadler was the only former Nazareth winner to start that race.
