2026 is shaping up to be a year NASCAR fans might actually feel good about. After years of frustration with points systems, horsepower debates, and schedule controversies, there’s a sense of optimism that hasn’t been around in a long time. Between changes on the track, adjustments off of it, and a silly season that could shake up the garage in major ways, there’s plenty to keep eyes on the future.

  • What kind of points system will NASCAR finally commit to, and could a full-season championship make a return?
  • How much will the increase to around 750 horsepower really change racing, especially at short tracks and road courses?
  • Will Goodyear’s continued push toward softer tires actually improve passing and tire wear at key tracks like Daytona and Talladega?
  • With Homestead back as the finale, Chicagoland’s return, and North Wilkesboro running as a points race, does the 2026 schedule mark a real “back to the roots” turning point?

And then there’s silly season. Big names, rising stars, and powerhouse rides are all in play — which means the garage could look very different by the time 2026 is over. It’s been a rough stretch recently, but history shows that NASCAR often bounces back after the darkest years with a season worth remembering.
