NASCAR has released the official entry list for the 2026 Cracker Barrel 400, the Sunday night showdown at Nashville Superspeedway, confirming a full field of 38 competitors.
The lineup includes 36 charter‑protected drivers and two open entries, setting the stage for a competitive weekend on the track that anchors Nashville’s only race date on the Cup schedule.
A driver’s tribute
Among the changes, Austin Hill will take over the No. 33 car for Richard Childress Racing, stepping into the seat vacated by the late Kyle Busch.
Hill’s insertion into the iconic No. 33 car is more than a roster move; it is a tribute to Busch’s legacy and a chance for the youngster to showcase his talent on a historic venue.
The race marks the third concrete event of the season, underscoring the series’ early momentum as teams and drivers gear up for the summer stretch.
Charter details and open entries
Chad Finchum and Corey Heim are the two drivers slated for the open entries, adding depth to a field that promises on‑track action from start to finish.
