You may not be able to see tonight's race if you're in certain markets, thanks to preseason NFL games.
Here's the news from ABC:
The following markets will have alternate viewing options for ABC's telecast of the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Bristol tonight (DT2 = Digital Tier 2):
Detroit (WXYZ) – Will show 7:30 - 9 p.m. on its DT2 channel then switch to primary channel at 9 p.m. due to coverage of annual Woodward Dream Cruise
Houston (KTRK) – Will show entire race on its DT2 channel due to coverage of Houston Texans preseason game.
Richmond, Va. (WRIC) – Will show entire race on WUPV-TV (CW station in market) due to coverage of Washington Redskins preseason game.
Weslaco, Texas (KRGV) – Will show entire race on its DT2 channel due to coverage of Dallas Cowboys preseason game.
Madison, Wisc. (WKOW) – Will show entire race on its DT2 channel due to coverage of Green Bay Packers preseason game.
LaCrosse, Wisc. (WXOW) – Will show entire game on its DT2 channel and in-market on CW station due to coverage of Green Bay Packers preseason game.
Wausau, Wisc. (WAOW) – Will show entire game on its DT2 channel and in-market on CW station due to coverage of Green Bay Packers preseason game.
NOTE: Joplin, Mo. (KODE) and St. Joseph, Mo. (KQTV) are both showing Kansas City Chiefs preseason games. Neither station has DT2 channel and due to limited alternate clearance options in the markets, race will not air in either market.

Justin.TV will probably have coverage, though it is usually several minutes delayed (and you may have to ‘donate’ to someone to see it). That was how I dealt with the hockey gold medal game and racing several months ago – race on TV, hockey on Justin.TV.
