The Tide 150 is an ARCA Menards Series race held at Kansas Speedway. It is one of two races the series has at the track, the other being the Kansas Lottery 150 in September. The race was added to the schedule in 2020 after the cancellation of the race at Chicagoland Speedway due to COVID-19 regulations in Illinois.[1] It then became a permanent race on the ARCA Menards Series schedule in 2021.
So far in each year in that the race has been run, the race has been won by the driver who went on to win the series championship: Bret Holmes won it in 2020, which was his first ARCA win. Ty Gibbs won the 2021 race and also led every single lap in it, becoming the first driver since Kevin Swindell in 2012 at Chicagoland Speedway to lead every single lap of a main ARCA Series race.[2] It was one of 10 races Gibbs won en route to winning the championship that year. Nick Sanchez won the 2022 race. It was his second win at Kansas as he won the 2021 fall race at the track. Jesse Love, the winner of the 2023 race, like Gibbs also went on to win 10 races and the series championship.
Tide became the title sponsor of the race in 2024.[3]
