Richmond Raceway will celebrate its 80th anniversary next year. Last year’s NASCAR race weekend was a sold-out event.
“Bringing Saturday night racing back to Richmond Raceway had everyone showing up and showing out, igniting an electric atmosphere from the fans in the stands and the drivers on track,” Lori Waran, President of Richmond Raceway, said. “We plan to keep that momentum with us as we head into our 80th anniversary and welcome fans back for our most exciting chapter yet.”
The last Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway saw Richard Childress Racing driver Austin Dillon get redemption and once again secure the victory in front of a packed house, racing his way into the Cup Series Playoffs. Truck Series driver Corey Heim also scored big in Richmond, earning his seventh victory of the year, helping him toward his record-breaking season of wins and eventual championship.
The 2026 NASCAR Race Weekend at Richmond Raceway kicks off on Aug. 14 with the Truck series at 7:30 p.m. Then, drivers in the Cup Series take the track on Aug. 15 at 7 p.m.
