The season finale for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour’s 40th year is upon us as the mighty Modifieds will take to the track on Thursday night at Martinsville Speedway with 30 cars making the trip to the “Half-mile of Mayhem.

William Byron is at -36 points and followed by Joey Logano (-38), Ryan Blaney (-47) and Chase Elliot (-62). Barring a disastrous day for Bell or Larson, all will be looking for a Martinsville win to get into the finale.

Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin preside over 23XI Racing, a NASCAR team that has challenged the established leaders – and NASCAR itself.

For the first time since 2021, Denny Hamlin will go to the NASCAR Cup Series season finale at Phoenix Raceway with the ability to win his first Cup Series title.

Denny Hamlin's unique balancing act — as a driver for Joe Gibbs Racing and co-owner of 23XI Racing — became a key factor during the NASCAR playoffs.
