The Ashley Furniture 150 is an ARCA Menards Series race held at the Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, Illinois.

01History

It was originally 201 miles until 2008, but was shortened to 150 miles the next year. It has supported NASCAR Truck Series Overton's 225 in 2009, 2010 and 2012 and since 2016 the NASCAR Cup Series Overton's 400. In 2020, the race was originally on the schedule but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The race was announced to return in 2026 before the full-ARCA schedule was released, along with the Pocono race. The race is notable for its parity, as there was never a repeat winner throughout the 19 races held at the track.
