The Coronado Street Course is a 3.400 mi (5.472 km) street circuit on Naval Base Coronado (more specifically Naval Air Station North Island) that will host the NASCAR Cup Series, O'Reilly Auto Parts Series and the Truck Series in 2026. It previously hosted the Global MX-5 Cup in 2012 and 2013, and Stadium Super Trucks in 2014 as part of Speed Festival, which was also held there between 1997 and 2016.[1][2]
History
[edit]
NASCAR has previously held races in the Southern California area for most of its existence, having races at various tracks throughout the 1950s onward, with the addition of Auto Club Speedway to the schedule in 1997 as a superspeedway. It was announced on September 9, 2020, that NASCAR would shorten the track, removing the race following 2023.[3][4] In 2022, NASCAR announced that its annual preseason race, the Busch Clash, would be held at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.[5] It was removed from the schedule following 2024, when the Clash was moved to Bowman Gray Stadium in 2025,[6] leaving the Southern California area without a race for 2025.
Rumors surrounding the Chicago Street Course began after the 2025 race with Chicago's mayor, Brandon Johnson, stating that his administration would like to keep Chicago on the schedule, but after considering changing dates, as the race was held on Independence Day weekend.[7] It was then announced that the race would be removed following 2025.[8] Other rumors began that NASCAR was looking to hold a street race in the Southern California area, as this area was vacant from the schedule.[9] It was announced on July 23, 2025, that NASCAR would host a first of its kind street race on the Naval Base Coronado, with the lower national series O'Reilly Auto Parts Series and the Craftsman Truck Series following suit.[10]
