The Drive4Clots.com 300 by Janssen is the fifth race on the NASCAR Xfinity Series schedule. It is held in late March at Auto Club Speedway, usually the day before the Cup series race, the Auto Club 400, although in 2008 it was held after the Cup series race due to a rain delay. It was previously ran in October and late April or early May. Kevin Harvick is the defending winner of the event, after winning it in 2015.
