Bet IRWIN Tools Night Race Odds – Bristol Motor Speedway Drivers Betting Lines

IRWIN Tools takes over the sponsor entitlement from Sharpie, a sister company under the Newell Rubbermaid umbrella, which has sponsored the race since 2001. The IRWIN Tools name has been a NASCAR mainstay since 2003.

Since 1978, the race has been held in late-August on a Saturday night. Since 2010 the race has been sponsored by tool maker IRWIN Industrial Tools and for that reason Sharpie 500 was changed to IRWIN Tools Night Race.

Previously known as the Sharpie 500 as recently as 2009, the IRWIN Tools Night Race is a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race held at Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee, and is one of two Sprint Cup races held at Bristol. The other is the Food City 500, but the newly-tagged IRWIN Tools Night Race is by far the more popular of the two.

The biggest of the two races at Bristol is the Irwin Tools Night Race, which was formerly known as the Sharpie 500. The history of this race goes all the way back to 1961 as the Volunteer 500 (since Tennessee is the Volunteer State) and it has undergone several name changes since then. For nearly a decade it was the Sharpie 500, but in 2017 it will take on a new name.

While the IRWIN Tools Night Race's new name is unique, the summer classic will continue to be 500 grueling laps around the high banks of the .533-mile oval, under the lights at Bristol, one of NASCAR's most popular and legendary racing venues. A spectacle in auto sports since its inception in 1961, Bristol has had 55 consecutive NASCAR Sprint Cup Series sellouts, dating back to 1982.
