Hosted by Steve Byrnes (NASCAR on FOX races) & Krista Voda (remaining races), the show features former NASCAR Crew Chiefs Larry McReynolds (until 2011), Jeff Hammond, former Cup Champion Darrell Waltrip (NASCAR on FOX & TNT races only), Kyle Petty & Rutledge Wood (in 2011). Elliott Sadler, driver of the Kevin Harvick Incorporated #2 occasionally occupys the seat in Darrell's absence (NASCAR on ESPN races). Before him, Darrell's brother Michael Waltrip, former driver of the #55 NAPA Toyota Camry for Michael Waltrip Racing filled this position. Sans Sadler, these also make up the team during NASCAR on FOX telecasts with Byrnes & Voda as pit reporters and Waltrip as commentator alongside Mike Joy and Hammond with Chris Myers in FOX's at track studio named the 'Hollywood Hotel'. The show focuses on the weekend's NASCAR Sprint Cup race, with drivers from the Series as guests. During the Michigan broadcast on 13 August 2010 Byrnes announced he was leaving the show to be the host for NASCAR Race Hub also broadcast on SPEED. Starting in 2011 he only hosts the shows broadcast during the NASCAR on FOX Sprint Cup coverage.
The show was originally broadcast from various locations in and around the track, from pit road to the infield to the garage. Eventually this format was dropped and Trackside was re-located to its current position on the SPEED Stage which is usually placed outside of the racetrack. Guests include former and current NASCAR drivers as well as NASCAR personalities and celebrities that happen to be at the track.
The unofficial slogan for the show is "We work hard & we play hard!"
