NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Atlanta Motor Speedway

Stock car racing events in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series have been held at Atlanta Motor Speedway, in Hampton, Georgia during numerous seasons and times of year since 1992.

Spring race

The Bennett Transportation & Logistics 250 is the name of the Spring race. Sheldon Creed is the defending race winner.

History

Jeff Gordon, Mike Skinner, Jamie McMurray, and Carl Edwards have gotten their first series wins in this race.

Following the transfer of the season ending Cup series race from Atlanta to Homestead–Miami Speedway after the 2001 season (although due to the September 11 attacks, the 2001 Atlanta fall race was the second-to-last race of the season when the race at New Hampshire was moved from September to November as the last race of the season), the then 312-mile race was moved to Atlanta's fall race weekend where it remained until Aaron's Rental, who was sponsoring the race, chose instead to sponsor the lone Busch event at Talladega. The race gained sponsorship from GlaxoSmithKline through its Nicorette brand and moved back to its traditional spring date.

In September 2008, NASCAR officials announced that Nicorette would not renew its corporate sponsorship for race after the 2008 season. On October 26, 2008 it was announced that Unilever's deodorant brand Degree will take over sponsorship of this race starting in 2009. It was later announced that the now-Degree V12 300 would be moving to September as part of the latest round of NASCAR realignment, which resulted in the Pep Boys Auto 500, the AMP Energy 500 at Talladega, and the Pepsi 500 at Fontana/Auto Club Speedway trading places. The Degree V12 300 took the place of the Camping World RV Service 300 on NASCAR's Labor Day weekend race schedule and serves as an accompanying race to the AdvoCare 500.

In 2015, the Xfinity race at Atlanta moved along with the Cup race (Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500) to the second weekend of the season and ran as a doubleheader on Saturday afternoon along with the Truck Series. The race was also reduced to 250 miles in order to make the race a doubleheader on the same day.

EchoPark Automotive became the title sponsor of the race in 2020, replacing Rinnai. That year, the race had been moved from being in February and the second race of the season and the first race before the three-race west coast swing to March and as the fifth race of the season as the first race after the west coast swing. However, the race was moved again from March to June due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, the race returned to March. In 2022, Nalley Automotive Group replaced EchoPark as the title sponsor and the new name of the race was the Nalley Cars 250. In 2023, Raptor Coatings replaced Nalley as the title sponsor and the new name of the race was the Raptor King of Tough 250. In 2025, Bennett Transportation & Logistics, the primary sponsor of defending Atlanta Xfinity Series race winner Austin Hill, would become the title sponsor of this race, replacing Raptor.

Summer race

The Focused Health 250 is the name of the Summer race. Justin Allgaier is the defending race winner.

History

In 2021, when the NASCAR Cup Series got a second race at Atlanta for the first time since 2010, this Xfinity Series race was added to the schedule on the same weekend in July as the new Cup Series race. Credit Karma held the naming rights to the race that year. In 2022, Alsco replaced Credit Karma as the title sponsor. When the start times for all of NASCAR's events were announced, the 2023 event would become a Saturday night event to coincide with the track's second Cup race returning to a nighttime event. In 2024, with collaboration with Speedway Motorsports, Focused Health took over as the title sponsor in Atlanta and COTA.

Past winners

• 2021, 2023 & 2026: Races extended due to an overtime.
• 2025: After a long red flag delay for lightning strikes, the first two stages of the race were held on Friday, with the final stage ending on Saturday.
