Monster Energy, Pocono Raceway and NASCAR are joining forces for the third annual ‘Monster Energy NASCAR Free Friday’ program. Fans will have the chance to enjoy all the racing action and fun activities at ‘The Tricky Triangle’ for free on Friday, May 31, by recycling any size Monster Energy can.
The on-track events on ‘Monster Energy NASCAR Free Friday’ include Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series practices and qualifying, NASCAR Xfinity Series practice, ARCA Menards Series qualifying and the General Tire #AnywhereIsPossible 200 ARCA race.

If they choose to renew for 2020 tickets, those same two adults and up to eight kids can attend Day 1 or Day 2 of the 2020 double-header weekend for just $72.”
