This weekend we head to Nashville Superspeedway for the Sports Illustrated Resorts 250. The race is Saturday at 7:30pm ET on The CW. It’s a 1.333-mile concrete “flat track”. The O’Reilly Auto Parts Series returned to Nashville in 2021 after not racing here since 2011. Like the Truck Series, the NOAPS cars are running a new tire combo at Nashville this weekend. I’ll be using the high-speed intermediates, 2026 data, recent Nashville data, practice, and a few other things when building lineups this weekend. There have been at least 5 cautions in 4 of the 5 races here since returning. The race winner has started inside the top 5 in 3 of those races.
