One of the most notable changes for the 2026 racing season concerns the name of NASCAR’s second-tier series.

After 11 seasons as the Xfinity Series, the track is now known as the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series. Fear not, though – even though the brand is different, racing fans will still be able to get their fix of (mostly) Saturday afternoon and evening racing all season long.
This year’s schedule includes 33 weekends of action, from Daytona to Homestead-Miami, with fireworks guaranteed.
The 2025 season saw Jesse Love win the first and last races of the year and capture the drivers’ championship, but rookie Connor Zilisch was the story of the year, dominating the second half of the schedule and taking 10 wins, including seven out of eight races during one stretch.
Who will emerge as the stars of the 2026 season? Check out the full schedule below to find out when to attend each race throughout the 2026 season.
