- Atlanta Motor Speedway said in its press release that this would be the “Second NASCAR event” of the 2025 season for the track. This means Atlanta will once again have a spring race, but, they will no longer be the Playoff opener in 2025.
- Atlanta Motor Speedway hosted one spring and one summer race every year from 2021 through 2023. In 2024, the summer event was moved to the second weekend of September as the Playoff opener after the NASCAR schedule was shifted due to the Olympic break.
- Fans are excited by this change. Atlanta is a night race again, and it’s become one of the most popular tracks on the schedule.
