The week-long event will be held at two local speedways in the metro area with the historic Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway concluding the on April 16-18.
The 2026 INEX Spring Nationals and the chase for an iconic guitar trophy kicks off on Monday, April 13 with a practice day at Veterans Motorplex (formerly Highland Rim Speedway) in Greenbier, TN, followed by two days of racing on the 1/4-mile banked speedway. The event then moves to the storied Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway on Thursday, April 16 for a day of practice, followed by two days of nearly non-stop racing on the quarter-mile infield track.
Kevin Rollins, a native of Tennessee who has won four of the five Spring Nationals in Nashville, will make his return and attempt to win his fifth and a fourth-straight guitar. Rollins is also the defending 2025 INEX Masters Asphalt National Champion. In the Pro Division, local driver Michael Crafton will look to continue his hot streak of top finishes. Last year he dueled with Jacob Stanton all week long. Crafton is chasing his fifth consecutive guitar. Another native of Tennessee, Landon Thrasher will look to capture his 2026 Spring Nationals title in Bandolero Outlaws Division after coming just short last year.
