Darlington - Goodyear 400

Sunday, 22 March 2026 · Darlington Raceway, Darlington · 🇺🇸 United States

The Goodyear 400 is contested over 293 laps and marks the 70th running of the event as the sixth race of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season. Darlington Raceway is nicknamed 'The Lady in Black' and 'The Track Too Tough to Tame,' with its distinctive egg-shaped design created to preserve a minnow pond the owner refused to relocate. The asymmetrical shape, highly abrasive track surface, and preferred racing line near the wall have made it regarded by NASCAR drivers as one of the toughest circuits on the schedule. Opened in 1950, Darlington was the first paved NASCAR track exceeding one mile in length; the inaugural Southern 500 drew a record field of 75 cars.
