Some changes in the 2018 schedule include the following:
* The Charlotte Motor Speedway playoff race on September 30 will now take place on a 2.42-mile course instead of its 1.5-mile oval track.
* Chicago Speedway will host a race July 1, but the track will no longer participate in playoffs. Instead, the Las Vegas Motor Speedway opens the 10-race playoffs on September 16.
* The last race prior to playoffs will take place at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in September instead of Richmond International Raceway, where the race has been held for nearly 15 years.
