Background

Nashville Superspeedway is a motor racing complex located in Gladeville, Tennessee, United States (though the track has a Lebanon postal address), about 30 mi (48 km) southeast of Nashville. The track was built in 2001 and is currently hosting the Ally 400, a NASCAR Cup Series regular season event, the Tennessee Lottery 250, and the Rackley Roofing 200.^[2]

It is a concrete oval track 11⁄3 miles (2.145 km) long. Nashville Superspeedway is owned by Speedway Motorsports, which acquired the track's previous owner Dover Motorsports in December 2021. Nashville Superspeedway is the longest concrete oval in NASCAR. Current permanent seating capacity is approximately 25,000, but will reach up to 38,000 for the NASCAR Cup Series event in 2021.^[3] Additional portable seats are brought in for some events, and seating capacity can be expanded to 150,000.^[4] Infrastructure is in place to expand the facility to include a short track, drag strip, and road course.

Practice

The only 30-minute practice session was held on Friday, June 24, at 3:00 PM CST.^[5] Stewart Friesen, driving for Halmar Friesen Racing, was the fastest in the session, with a time of 30.689 seconds, and a speed of 156.017 mph (251.085 km/h).

Qualifying

Qualifying was on Saturday, June 24, at 3:30 PM CST.^[5] Since Nashville Superspeedway is an oval track, the qualifying system used is a single-car, one-lap system with only one round. Whoever sets the fastest time in the round wins the pole.^[6]

Ryan Preece, driving for David Gilliland Racing, scored the pole for the race, with a time of 29.753 seconds, and a speed of 160.925 mph (258.984 km/h).^[7]
