Las Vegas announces ’11 Cup date, no 2nd race

Las Vegas's annual NASCAR Weekend will return to its traditional March weekend in 2011. The annual NASCAR Weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway will be held March 4-6, 2011. Earlier this year, the event was held on the final weekend in February due to a quirk in the calendar. "In reality, it's on the same weekend as the 2010 event, but our race fans have been used to coming here on the first weekend in March, so it's good to be back on those dates," said LVMS president Chris Powell. "We've been blessed with great weather on this weekend the past few years, and we look forward to having another great weekend with a packed house in 2011."
