1st race of the 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series
Motor car race
The 2026 United Rentals 300 will be the 1st stock car race of the 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series season, and the 45th iteration of the event. The race will be held on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, a 2.5 miles (4.0Â km) superspeedway. The race is scheduled to be contested over 120 laps.
Daytona International Speedway is one of three superspeedways to hold NASCAR races, the other two being Atlanta Motor Speedway and Talladega Superspeedway.[3] The standard track at Daytona International Speedway is a four-turn superspeedway that is 2.5 miles (4.0Â km) long.[4] The track’s turns are banked at 31Â degrees, while the front stretch, the location of the finish line, is banked at 18Â degrees.[4]

Qualifying will be held on Saturday, February 14, at 10:00 AM EST.[5] Since Daytona International Speedway is a superspeedway, the qualifying procedure used is a single-car, single-lap system with two rounds. In the first round, drivers have one lap to set a time and determine positions 11-38. The fastest ten drivers from the first round will advance to the second round, and whoever sets the fastest time in Round 2 will win the pole and determine the rest of the starting lineup.[6]
