Watch the ARCA Menards Series race at Watkins Glen today: Free live stream location revealed
The racing season is in full swing, and the next stop for the ARCA Menards Series is the General Tire 100 at The Glen, scheduled for August 8, 2025, at Watkins Glen International. But how can you catch all the action? Here's a breakdown of the best streaming services for watching the race.
DirecTV offers a broad range of channels, including some regional sports networks (RSNs) that might carry motorsports events like the ARCA Menards Series. With plans starting around $90/month, DirecTV is known for its cable-like bundles and channel variety, though it is typically the most expensive option.
fuboTV is a popular choice for sports fans, offering a strong line-up of sports channels and select 4K streams. Its plans cost about $85/month, and its RSN packages may let you access regional race broadcasts for an additional fee. However, fuboTV has recently lost some Warner Bros. Discovery channels, which is not crucial for ARCA racing but worth noting.
Sling TV is a more affordable option, offering essential sports channels like ESPN, FS1, and FS2, which commonly broadcast NASCAR and ARCA races. Sling's two main bundles — Sling Orange and Sling Blue — each cost around $46/month, or combined for about $61/month. Sling is a solid middle ground for sports fans on a budget, though it lacks some local channels in many markets.
Before subscribing, make sure to confirm the official broadcaster of the race (usually FS1 or FS2 for ARCA) and check which service offers those channels in your area and at what cost. All three services provide live streaming on multiple devices with just an internet connection.
While you're waiting for the General Tire 100 at The Glen, keep an eye on the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race, scheduled for August 15 in Richmond, Virginia, and the NASCAR CUP SERIES race, called Go Bowling at The Glen, both of which will also be broadcast on FS1.
For fans of open-wheel racing, the next INDYCAR race is on August 24 in West Allis, Wisconsin. The last INDYCAR race was won by Will Power, who beat Alex Palou by over nine seconds.
In addition, the World of Outlaws will be racing from August 13 - 19. The track for the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race is Watkins Glen International, with the race distance being 72 laps, 176.4 miles. The NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race at Watkins Glen and the ARCA Menards Series race are both set to be streamed on FS2.
