The 2026 NASCAR Truck Series hits Echo Park Speedway today, Friday, February 20, for qualifying ahead of the Fr8 Racing 208.
After an exciting opening weekend at Daytona, which drew the largest viewership for a Truck Series event since 2016, the venue formerly known as Atlanta Motor Speedway throws up another drafting track for the Truck Series drivers to contend with, and some big names are involved once again.
Four full-time Cup Series drivers are on the Truck entry list for this weekend's event, with last year's race winner Kyle Busch in the No. 7, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. in the No. 45, John Hunter Nemechek in the No. 62, and Carson Hocevar in the No. 77.
Reigning Truck Series champion Corey Heim also returns this weekend, fresh off the back of his Daytona 500 debut last time out. He isn't racing full-time in trucks this season, but will be in the No. 1 this time out.
With that said, let's get into all of the information you need ahead of today's session.
