Grid briefing

Sam Mayer leads the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Atlanta starting lineup

How the front row was set

What track position means at Atlanta Motor Speedway

Modern Atlanta combines steep banking with a narrow drafting-style layout, so pack awareness and a stable long-run balance both matter.

NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Atlanta grid watch

Justin Allgaier won from P16, charging from row eight in the night drafting race rather than relying on the repeated Mayer-Kvapil front row.

Starting-order facts checked against Atlanta O'Reilly qualifying results. A post-qualifying inspection or unapproved adjustment can still send a car to the rear without changing its scored starting position.
