Stock car races in the now-NASCAR Xfinity Series were held at Pikes Peak International Raceway, in Fountain, Colorado between 1998 to 2005, when the owners of PPIR, International Speedway Corporation, closed the facility. Following the closure of the track, the race was replaced the following season with the Goody's 250 at Martinsville Speedway, another ISC-owned track, only for it to be replaced with NAPA Auto Parts 200 in Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Canada in 2007.
