The twin-bill format returns to Hickory Motor Speedway for the MTP Tire 300. Last season, this race sparked a season-long rivalry between Brandon Setzer and Canadian hotshoe Raphael Lessard after an on-track incident spilled over into the pit area and Chris Dilbeck brought home the win in an underdog story after his bone-stock crate engine took the SLM checkered flag. On the LMSC side, Bobby McCarty took home a victory that set him apart as a title contender, could someone else do the same this year?
