The NASCAR O’Reilly Series is set to arrive at Nashville Superspeedway for its 16th race of the 2026 season. It is the only date in Nashville, as NASCAR visits the venue once per season. In 2025, William Sawalich won the pole for the O’Reilly Series race at Nashville, marking his first and final pole position during the season.
First, the O’Reilly Series needs to qualify for the event in Nashville, and the qualifying format is simple. Every driver will make a one-lap run, with the best overall lap times determining the starting lineup. The metric system determines the qualifying order.
