  • The Chase is back
  • Tony Stewart racing for RAM at Daytona
  • Travis Pastrana will make his Truck Series return at Daytona
  • Jake Garcia driving the 98 for Thorsport in 2026 Truck Series
  • Cole Butcher will run the 13 for Thorsport in 2026
  • Corey LaJoie driving the 99 for RFK in Daytona 500

    • Kaulig will run the 16 with Biffle’s font at Daytona
  • Kurt Busch, Harry Gant, Ray Hendrick all enter the NASCAR Hall of Fame
  • Kentucky Speedway may be doomed
  • NASCAR rules changes
    • Once a car is repaired in the garage, it is no longer eligible for the Xfinity Fastest Lap
    • If 19 of 20 lug nuts are safe and secure, teams will lose pit selection for the next race. If 18 lug nuts are secure, it’s a fine ($5,000 in O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, $2,500 in the Truck Series) and a one-race crew member suspension. If there are four missing lug nuts, it’s a race disqualification in both series. In the past, the fines started at one missing lug nut ($5,000 for NOAPS), and crew chiefs also would be suspended for multiple missing lug nuts. Teams successfully lobbied NASCAR that the punishments were too harsh.
    • NASCAR will hold a potential four additional spots for OEM provisionals in this season’s first three Craftsman Truck Series races as Ram makes its return to NASCAR. If any of the manufacturer’s entries fails to make the 36-truck field on qualifying speed at Daytona, EchoPark Speedway or the street race at St. Petersburg, Florida, the vehicle would be added to the rear of the starting lineup, leading to a maximum 40-truck field if necessary.
    • NASCAR also lowered the minimum age for competing on 1.25-mile and shorter tracks in the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series to 17 years old, which is between the 16-year-old minimum for trucks and 18 for Cup.
  • The Charlotte Roval looks like it’s dead
