See where your favorite NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series drivers will pit this weekend at EchoPark Speedway, as well as Craftsman Truck Series drivers at Lime Rock Park.
NASCAR Cup Series
NASCAR Cup Series Quaker State 400 Available at Walmart at EchoPark Speedway on Sunday (7 p.m. ET, TNT Sports, truTV, HBO Max, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
HAMPTON, Ga. — Since its opening in 1960, EchoPark Speedway near Atlanta has undergone numerous changes, not the least of which is its name (originally Atlanta International Raceway).
In 1997, the track’s frontstretch and backstretch were “flipped,” and the original dedicated oval shape was transformed into a quad-oval with “hinges” on the new frontstretch. In 2021, the layout was modified again, increasing the track’s banking and trimming the racing surface in the turns, producing the super-fast design today’s drivers tackle.
For two-time EchoPark winner Chase Elliott, however, a more noteworthy change at the Georgia track occurred in the infield.
“They tore down my favorite playground,” Elliott said, quite seriously. “They had a killer playground here back in the day. You could climb up on the outside of it, like where you weren’t supposed to climb, and see almost the whole track. That was where myself and a lot of the other drivers’ kids watched the races from. Then we show up there one year and they had torn it down, and it was a bummer.”
Crestfallen, Elliott pushed on.
“That playground stood out for years, more than the racing did when you’re little,” he said. “You’re there to have a good time, and you’re kind of soaking it all in.”
While Chase played, dad Bill Elliott drove the high banks of Atlanta. Eventually, son would follow father onto the fast lanes of their “home track,” the Elliott family having long roots in Dawsonville, Georgia, a hundred miles north of the 1.54-mile track.
This weekend the Elliotts return to Hampton on Sunday (7 p.m. ET, TNT Sports, truTV, HBO Max, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio), where Chase won the Quaker State 400 last year and where his father won five times, all before Chase’s birth in 1995.
If Chase loved the playground, he also likes the track’s relatively new design. His 9.38 average finish in the nine races on the “new” Atlanta is the best of all drivers. He ranks fourth in most laps led on the new configuration.
With the redesign, faster speeds and jammed traffic packs, Atlanta was folded into the “drafting-style track” designation, one that also includes Talladega Superspeedway and Daytona International Speedway. Elliott, though, sees differences.
“I think it (EchoPark) is kind of like a mini-speedway more than anything,” he said. “I think everything just happens a little quicker than it does at Daytona and Talladega. It’s hard, particularly with this car in general, to control the race. In the previous generation car, you had guys that were really good at attaining the lead and keeping the lead, like dominating the race.
“You see that some in this car, but it doesn’t seem like quite the same. These cars are so ‘draggy’ that there are going to be times that there are runs that you can’t stop and people are going to pass you. So then the question becomes, where do I want myself positioned when that happens to stop it from happening in the first place?”
Although EchoPark’s speeds are similar to the two bigger tracks, straightaways are shorter. “Things can pile up in a hurry,” Elliott said. “The runs are really big and the straightaways are short. There are times throughout the race where you kind of have to cut your losses and try and make the smart overall decision.”
CLAREMONT, N.H. – Patrick Emerling proved Friday night that hard work pays off.
In preparation for the Clash at Claremont, Emerling and the No. USNE Motorsports team made an extra trip to Claremont Motorsports Park a few weeks ago. They used that event as an opportunity to prepare for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour event at the track a few weeks later.
That preparation paid off in spades after Emerling secured his first victory of the season Friday night at Claremont, which served as Round 2 of JDV Productions’ Whelen Midsummer Championship miniseries.
“This whole team works hard. We came here and ran a few weeks ago to figure out the track a little bit. We missed it a little bit in the race and finished second,” Emerling said. “It’s the determination of the team. We put in the effort to go race another race here to get a feel for the track and then we just made our adjustments, and we unloaded that much stronger today.”
Emerling qualified fourth but had the good fortune to draw the pole in the pre-race redraw, which allowed him to lead the field to the green flag.
He led the opening stanza of the race, but perennial contender Matt Hirschman utilized a restart just past Lap 30 to drive around Emerling to take the lead.
Emerling paced himself and slowly reeled Hirschman back in during the long green-flag run. With 56 laps left, Emerling was on Hirschman’s rear bumper. Two laps later Emerling worked to Hirschman’s inside and completed the pass to regain the lead.

Hirschman kept Emerling honest for the final 50 laps, but Emerling held serve and drove to his first Modified Tour victory of the season and 10th of his career.
The victory makes Emerling just the 24th driver in Modified Tour history to earn 10 or more victories.
The win also propelled Emerling to the top of the Modified Tour championship standings after Stephen Kopcik, who entered the race as the points leader, finished last after fighting power steering issues all night.
“I’ve just got to give it up to the whole USNE Power Energizer No. 1 group and everyone involved,” Emerling said. “We kind of had a little bit of a slow start to the season. We were kind of struggling.
“We’re just working on getting in our groove, and we’re finally kind of getting that going.”
Hirschman, who was the only driver eligible to win a $10,000 bonus offered to any driver who could sweep all three rounds of the Whelen Midsummer Championship following his victory at Seekonk Speedway on July 1, admitted Emerling simply outpaced him during the final run to the checkered flag.
“I just needed to be a little tighter and have a little better drive longer than it lasted. I think the best car won tonight, the best handling car,” Hirschman explained. “They just outlasted us tonight. Once he got to me, I kind of knew I was in trouble.”
Jon McKennedy, the most recent Claremont winner prior to Friday night, finished third. Austin Beers was fourth, and rookie Paulie Hartwig III finished fifth.
Max Zachem, Teddy Hodgdon, Mike Christopher Jr., Eric Goodale and Andrew Molleur were sixth through 10th, respectively.
There is no rest for the Mod Squad, as the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour returns to action next Saturday, July 18 for the running of the rescheduled Thunder in the Mountains 200 at White Mountain Motorsports Park. FloRacing will provide live coverage of the event beginning at 8 p.m. ET.
LAKEVILLE, Conn. — Layne Riggs has a mind to make his new nickname stick. Same goes for his recent momentum swing.
After scoring a last-lap victory in the San Diego street-course inaugural — the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series’ most recent race on June 19 — Riggs has two wins in the three road-course events that have been held this year. Post-race at Naval Base Coronado, the 24-year-old Front Row Motorsports driver broke out his new alias of “Layne van Riggsbergen,” a nod to road-course ace Shane van Gisbergen, given his newfound road-racing success.
Riggs will have another opportunity to live up to his billing in the LiUNA 150 at scenic Lime Rock Park, which hosts the Truck Series’ final road-course race of the season in a Saturday matinee (1 p.m. ET, FS1, FOX One, NRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
“LVR, hopefully he makes his return,” Riggs said with a smile Friday morning, on the series’ load-in day. “LVR has been doing a lot of practicing in the Ford Racing simulator. Joey Hand, our road-course instructor at Ford Racing, always does a really good job. He’s got a lot of experience at all these places and just really good insight on how to go fast on these road courses. The Fords being fast at all of them has really been a good tale of why. So yeah, I’m excited about it, and hopefully, LVR is just as strong as SVG.”
Saturday’s 100-lap showdown marks the series’ second event at the 1.478-mile road circuit tucked into the majestic hills and sprawling pastures of Connecticut’s northwest corner. Riggs led one lap in last year’s inaugural race at Lime Rock, contending before his No. 34 Ford ran wide on the first turn of the final restart. Last year’s Truck Series champion, Corey Heim, led the other 99 laps in 2025, but is not entered this year as part of his partial Truck schedule.
Riggs’ recent run this season has mirrored Heim’s charge through the schedule during his championship campaign a year ago. He has five consecutive top-five finishes, a tear that includes three victories (Charlotte, Nashville, San Diego), and that uptick has carried him to the top of the Truck Series standings, going from 38 points back at the start of that stretch to a 65-point advantage over his nearest challenger — Tricon Garage’s Kaden Honeycutt — heading into Lime Rock.
Keeping that steady surge going is Riggs’ priority, especially with five events remaining before the seven-race Chase begins.

“I feel like this is where we’re supposed to be, and this team, this is their level they should be performing at. So really happy that we can execute recently, have a lot of good solid runs and win two road courses this season,” Riggs said, calling it a “feat in itself” to prevail in the series’ first event in St. Petersburg’s streets. “… Having the points lead, the biggest lead we’ve had of the year, I’m excited about it. Feel like we just need to focus on managing it. We need to focus more on not making mistakes than we do about having the one extra step ahead of everybody else.
“Silver and bronze are just fine when you have this much of a lead. Right now, the biggest thing is just not having the mistakes, going off track, having pit-road penalties, speeding on pit road, getting in a wreck, having a mechanical failure — all those things that could come into play to quickly take you out of those situations, just to not have those and just keep having top-five runs. Our only goal at the moment is to be seeded No. 1 headed into the Chase, and pretty much besides that, that’s all we can do at the moment.”
Joining the regulars in the 33-truck field are a handful of distinguished guests from other motorsports worlds. Louis Foster, last year’s IndyCar rookie of the year, is set for his NASCAR debut in Freedom Racing Enterprises’ No. 76 Chevrolet, and IMSA competitor Graham Doyle will also make his first career Truck Series start in Tricon’s No. 5 Toyota. Sports-car veteran Colin Braun will be back in Kaulig Racing’s free-agent Ram, and Parker Kligerman will make just his fourth Truck start of the season, but his first with Spire Motorsports’ No. 77 Chevrolet team.
Lime Rock has special meaning for Kligerman, a Connecticut native from Westport, nearly 55 miles south of the track. A number of firsts from his love affair with racing have come at the pastoral course — the first place he saw, drove or won in a race car. It’s part of why he joined the Lime Rock ownership group in 2021.
Kligerman was part of the welcoming delegation of drivers and teams during Thursday’s hauler parade, which proceeded by the stately White Hart Inn in the quaint heart of nearby Salisbury. The community has been tested in recent days by severe storms last weekend that snapped trees and spread power outages through the area, but under sunny skies amid a diligent rebuilding effort, the turnout was strong at the fork of Routes 41 and 44 just to the track’s north.
The heartwarming moments continued for Kligerman after his at-track arrival for the garage’s Friday opening. He’s racing the No. 77 — a favored number that he’s enjoyed success with — for Spire, which inhabits the former Kyle Busch Motorsports shop. Kligerman raced one season in what’s now called the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series for Busch, and his No. 77 ride wears a KBM decal on its left-front bumper.
“This is a very cool weekend for me, and I had the thought: I was walking down the hill after parking up at the top, and I was like, ‘man, if 9-year-old me knew he was at Lime Rock, and he’s walking down this hill like he did as a kid, but he’s there to race for a top team like Spire in the NASCAR Truck Series, he would’ve just been ecstatic.'” Kligerman said. “That was a cool moment, but yeah, this means a lot, and it’s kind of a dream I didn’t even know to dream, which is hey, you’re gonna come back here in this capacity and get to race at a place that means so much.”
Drivers returning to the cozy road course found some differences from last year’s event in Friday’s track walk — a stretch of repaved asphalt at the exit of the Turn 2 portion of the opening Big Bend sweeper and a smaller patch in Turn 5. The track is deceptively simple, with just seven turns and a layout that’s short by most road-course standards. Kligerman said IMSA veterans typically considered Lime Rock as that circuit’s bullring equivalent to Bristol Motor Speedway, but Truck Series drivers last year encountered a new venue that’s heavy on both right-hand turns and pace.
“I do think it’s a tricky track,” Kligerman said. “It’s high speed and because of that, I think last year a lot of these teams and drivers learned how to tackle this place differently, because you know they kind of got here thinking one way and then realized, wait a second, this is an entirely different track than we probably perceived from the outside.”
Riggs and Honeycutt have monopolized the series’ top two spots in the standings, and likewise, their teams have poured it on for the road courses. Front Row’s Fords and Tricon’s Toyotas have won the last nine road-course events in the Truck Series, dating back to the start of the 2023 campaign.
The last winner outside of FRM/Tricon on road courses? It’s Kligerman, who propelled the family-owned Henderson Motorsports No. 75 Chevrolet to victory at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in 2022.
“I’d love the opportunity to bring it back to the Chevy side a little bit,” Kligerman said of his weekend chances.
Entering the penultimate NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race in 2024, Chandler Smith saw the writing on the wall. Despite two victories that season for Joe Gibbs Racing — and an opportunity to still qualify for the Championship 4 — he fully believed he’d be without a full-time ride in NASCAR the following season.
“For somebody that don’t have a job next year in the industry, I’m probably going to be working for my dad on the construction side, just because of how some things are unfortunately playing out,” Smith said in an NBC Sports interview at Martinsville Speedway. “I feel like I don’t owe anybody anything.”
The Talking Rock, Georgia, native fell short of a title-race berth, but lived up to that quote. Smith had a heated scuffle on pit road with Cole Custer after the then-Stewart-Haas Racing driver moved him as they battled for the win late, with Smith quite literally fighting for every inch, unsure what would come next.
“I was very much serious about it because of how late in the season I was notified that I wasn’t going to be back at [JGR],” Smith told NASCAR.com this week, reflecting on that interview. “There was no open seats available for the following year, really.”
Smith learned late that summer he wouldn’t be returning to JGR in 2025. He kept in contact with Bob Jenkins, Front Row Motorsports’ owner and founder, after building a relationship with him while driving for Kyle Busch Motorsports. Smith said a NASCAR Cup Series ride with the organization was on the table, but Front Row hired Zane Smith to drive the No. 38 Ford.
Instead, a different No. 38 Ford came into the picture. Just days before Christmas, Chandler received a call from Jerry Freeze, FRM’s general manager, about driving in the Truck Series. He accepted almost instantly. Freeze went to work on securing race trucks and a hauler for FRM’s second full-time foray and tapped Smith to build out the team’s personnel from scratch.
‘”You go start building your team,” Smith said, recalling the conversation with Freeze. “I was like, ‘What do you mean by that?’ He’s like, ‘Well, do you know any crew chiefs that are available, any engineers? Like, we don’t have anybody at all.’ I was like, ‘You want me to start actively pursuing people?’ He’s like, “Yeah, I’m giving you the liberty and freedom to go do that.’
“I’ve never been in a situation like that, but it made me have a deep respect for the people that have to go through that year after year of finding engineers, finding crew chiefs, all the things that have to go into motion to making a race team successful. Man, I was in the trenches of it at the very start of it, and I’ve never been in that situation where I’ve seen that part of it, looking through those lenses.”
Smith first called Danny Stockman, his former crew chief at KBM from 2020-22, for recommendations. Stockman immediately mentioned Jon Leonard, who, at the time, called shots for a Niece Motorsports entry. It didn’t take much convincing from either party.
“It kind of fell in my lap,” Leonard told NASCAR.com. “To be able to have an opportunity to come to a company that wants to win, or the driver that wants to win, and have that chance … it was a pretty quick and easy decision on my part.”
And that driver/crew chief pairing didn’t take long to develop, either. Both joke that they see and speak to each other more than their spouses.
“[My wife] calls me three times a day, and I feel like I probably talk to Chandler as much or more,” Leonard said with Smith laughing in the background. “You’re around your race team more than you’re around your family a lot of times, and that relationship is super important to me because I can’t have success without him having success, right?
“Everything takes time. The longer we work together, the more we understand, and once you get a baseline, the next step is, OK, what can we do to make this a little bit better, and what’s the next knob we can turn, and what’s the next little tiny thing that will make a difference. Maybe it isn’t a wedge or an easy adjustment, it’s a theory-based conversation, and that’s where me and Chandler talk a lot — I’m able to pawn stuff off of him and he’s able to give me some feedback on what he needs to be better, and I feel like I can give him some stuff that maybe would help that isn’t such an easy knob to push.”

In their first season together, they won two of the first 10 races and entered the playoffs as the No. 3 seed. But in the opener at Darlington Raceway, Smith pushed too hard early, resulting in contact with the wall and a DNF. The No. 38 team suffered a mechanical issue at Bristol Motor Speedway, forcing a must-win situation in the Round of 10 cutoff at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. They ultimately finished second in Loudon and were eliminated.
Smith and Leonard used that disappointment as motivation. When the calendar flipped to 2026, it didn’t take long for them to find Victory Lane. Smith survived an epic overtime restart in the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway, going from sixth to first in the final set of corners and prevailing in a four-wide finish.
“I really do think that is a huge part of why we did win Daytona. We didn’t turn and start pointing fingers [after last season]. We said, yeah, you’re right, it’s pretty evident this was not meant to be,” Smith said. “It truly wasn’t a good reflection of what we were capable of, and we showed that even throughout the entire playoffs. The Lord didn’t will it that way for us to make it to Phoenix and make it to the final four, but it wasn’t a lack of being able to go out and perform.”
That “childhood dream come true” of winning at Daytona set the tone for a season where Smith remains a top championship threat. Through 13 races — and with just five remaining in the regular season — the No. 38 team sits third in the series ranks, trailing shopmate Layne Riggs by 128 markers heading into Lime Rock on Saturday (1 p.m. ET, FS1, NASCAR Racing Network Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
Overall, the numbers are stout, with six top fives and eight top 10s. But the 24-year-old wheelman points to a few races in particular where there were missed opportunities. The team surrendered a top-five finish at Rockingham Speedway in the spring after failing post-race inspection, resulting in a disqualification and just one point. Wrecks took him out of contention at both Charlotte Motor Speedway and Naval Base Coronado, accepting blame for the former. He felt that Dover Motor Speedway was the only race all season where he lacked pace.
“Taking out those four races … I would say we’ve been performing really well,” Smith said. “All those other performances where crap happened, we were still performing at a high level, so I would say on paper it’s kind of rocky, but reality is we’ve been running pretty well, so just need to clean up a few small things. I feel like our pit crew is starting to progressively get a little bit better, which that’s been a weakness of ours.”
And after Lime Rock, the schedule lines up right in Smith’s wheelhouse. The next five races are at tracks a mile or shorter, spanning The Chase opener at Bristol. Five of his eight career Truck wins came at those types of tracks.
Expecting a strong stretch ahead, Smith and Leonard target a final push for the Regular Season Championship — knowing the benefit of additional points to start The Chase. The top team after 18 races begins with 1,100 points — 25 above second and 35 above third.
Is that attainable?
“If you look at Denny’s run [in the Cup Series] and obviously even Layne’s run, I feel like if you do your job and you win stages and you win races, you go string together two, three, four of these next races, I think we can,” Leonard said. “It’s gonna be hard. I think you’re going to need a little bit of help. I do feel like Layne and Kaden [Honeycutt] are probably the two that we got to compete with every week, but he made up a good chunk of ground in a good amount of time, and we’re just kind of feeling like we’re coming into our stretch of tracks we’re really strong at. It’s gonna be work, but I feel like we can do it as a team and a company, for sure.”
This Sunday’s Quaker State 400 (7 p.m. ET, TNT Sports, truTV, HBO Max, PRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) already marks the 10th event at the reconfigured EchoPark Speedway. And each time back has been a certified banger with action galore. William Byron, Joey Logano and Chase Elliott have all scored multiple NASCAR Cup Series wins in the nine prior meetings and should be in the mix again.
Returning to Fastlane this year is my weekly NASCAR 36 for 36 pick, where you can come play along. It’s a season-long points battle introduced in 2024 where strategy is the primary emphasis. With 36 chartered cars and 36 races on the 2026 schedule, players can choose each car once for the duration of the season.
Driver:Chase Elliott, No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Selections remaining: 6 Comment: The defending race winner and hometown hero has top 10s in half of his eight starts at the reconfigured Atlanta. (He missed the spring 2023 event with a broken leg.) Elliott leads the league with a 9.38 average finish in those starts, and he has four top-five and five top-10 finishes in the last seven drafting-style events.
Driver:Ryan Blaney, No. 12 Team Penske Ford Selections remaining: 3 Comment: Blaney is the hot hand in the Ford camp. The No. 12 team sees lucky sevens across the board entering Atlanta, riding a career-best streak of seven straight top-10 finishes into the weekend. Blaney has also earned seven top 10s at the new Atlanta, leading all Cup drivers.
Driver:Joey Logano, No. 22 Team Penske Ford Selections remaining: 7 Comment: The final seven races of the regular season are favorable for Logano as he ranks 18th in the standings, 16 points behind bubble driver Erik Jones. It’s been feast or famine for him at Atlanta, however, with a pair of victories and five finishes outside the top 15. He has paced the field for a series-high 359 laps at Atlanta in the last nine visits.

DRIVERS TO AVOID
Driver:Kyle Larson, No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Selections remaining: 3 Comment: Aside from a podium effort at Atlanta in the spring of 2025, Larson hasn’t had much to celebrate in the Peach State. That third-place effort remains his only top 10 in nine starts on the reconfigured layout, with his six DNFs — all from accidents — being the most among all drivers.
Driver:Denny Hamlin, No. 11 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota Selections remaining: 1 Comment: Nearly everything has gone the way of Hamlin and the No. 11 team over the last seven weeks, gaining 173 points on Tyler Reddick in that timeframe. That positive momentum could come to a halt this weekend with five finishes of 23rd or worse on the reconfigured layout.

SLEEPERS OF THE WEEK
Driver:Daniel Suárez, No. 7 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet Selections remaining: 8 Comment: Suárez was on the winning side of an epic, three-wide finish in 2024, outlasting Blaney and Kyle Busch. He is consistently in the mix here as his five top-five finishes are the most among all drivers at the reconfigured Atlanta. He’s shined at superspeedways of late, with only one finish worse than 13th in the last seven races.
Driver:Ricky Stenhouse Jr., No. 47 Hyak Motorsports Chevrolet Selections remaining: 8 Comment: The ever-assertive Stenhouse is always a force at drafting tracks, winning a pair of superspeedway races in the Next Gen era. Specific to Atlanta, he has a quartet of top 10s — all in the last six starts — with a best finish of fifth last spring. He has placed sixth or better in three of the last five Atlanta visits.

FEATURED MATCHUPS
Todd Gilliland vs. Alex Bowman Pick: Bowman Comment: While Bowman is the final seed of the 32-team NASCAR In-Season Challenge, Gilliland is the true Cinderella of the tournament. He has a pair of 15th-place finishes and led a career-high 58 circuits in the spring 2024 race. I don’t think that’s good enough to beat Bowman, though, who has a pair of top-five and three total top-10 finishes, placing third in this event last year.
Chase Elliott vs. Chase Briscoe Pick: Elliott Comment: This is the first of three heavyweight matchups this weekend that could truly go either way. Elliott was my original winner of the In-Season Challenge when the bracket dropped, so leaning the way of the No. 9 team. Briscoe finished runner-up in the spring, his only finish better than 15th in nine starts on the reconfigured layout.
Denny Hamlin vs. Christopher Bell Pick: Bell Comment: The Herculean drive from Bell with a fractured wrist continues to the third round, where he’s a recent Atlanta victor (spring 2025). His recent drafting results leave room for improvement; he’s finished 21st or worse in four of the last six Atlanta races and only has one top 10 in the last seven drafting events, period. Hamlin hasn’t been any better in the Next Gen era, so let’s go with the slight upset.
Ryan Blaney vs. William Byron Pick: Blaney Comment: This is the toughest matchup of the tournament thus far. Both are titans when it comes to the reconfigured Atlanta, with Blaney having the most top 10s and Byron being tied for the most wins. The No. 12 team has earned my trust when it comes to consistency, plus he made it to the championship round in my bracket.
MY LINEUP
Starting five: Chase Elliott, Ryan Blaney, Joey Logano, Bubba Wallace, Daniel Suárez. Garage pick: Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
36 FOR 36
Pick:Austin Hill, No. 33 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet Comment: It may have come in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, but Hill has been an unstoppable force at his home venue. He has a knack for success in the draft, scoring a series-record 11 of his 16 checkered flags at superspeedways. He has a 55.5% winning percentage at Atlanta alone.
