NASCAR named O’Reilly Auto Parts as the title sponsor of the motorsport’s secondary series. The deal will go into effect Jan. 1, 2026, with the first NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race set for Feb. 14, 2026, at Daytona International Speedway.
O’Reilly has been involved in NASCAR extensively with race sponsorships in all three NASCAR national series – at Texas Motor Speedway, the Daytona Road Course and Mid-Ohio. They are the fourth title sponsor in the 44-year history of NASCAR’s second-tier series after Busch (1982-2007), Nationwide (2008-14) and Xfinity (2014-25)
The last race for the NASCAR Xfinity Series will be Nov. 1, 2025 at Phoenix Raceway. The first race was Feb. 21, 2015, at Daytona. Ryan Reed won in the No. 16 Ford for team owner Jack Roush. Reed is one of 56 drivers to win in the Xfinity era to date:
