The 2026 NASCAR Cup Series continues at EchoPark Speedway in Atlanta this weekend, and we've got all of the information you need ahead of qualifying today, Saturday, July 11th.
NASCAR has confirmed that single-car qualifying procedures will be in place at the 1.54-mile track in Georgia, with the Cup Series stars having one run to claim pole for Sunday's Quaker State 400.
Of course, this is the second time that the Cup Series has raced at the track this season, and earlier this year, it was Tyler Reddick who claimed pole, although he did so as per the rule book after qualifying was canceled.
It will certainly be interesting to see who's fastest and comes out on top this time around.
