As you read this on your electronic device, your favorite NASCAR Cup Series is likely strapped into their own much larger electronic device, running virtual laps on a racetrack that they have never driven before, built inside a racetrack that they have all raced on so many times before. Yes, that's a weird concept to process.
Then again, so is the idea of 39 stock cars logging their first-ever laps on a layout they've never seen in actual race conditions. No practice. No qualifying. Just green, green, green and hang on for dear life.
