Grid briefing

Jesse Love leads the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Nashville starting lineup

How the front row was set

Weather canceled Nashville O'Reilly qualifying, so teammates Jesse Love and Austin Hill received the first two positions through the NASCAR metric rather than a timed session.

What track position means at Nashville Superspeedway

Nashville is a 1.333-mile concrete oval with long corners where tire heat, aero push and green-flag stops shape long runs.

NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Nashville grid watch

Justin Allgaier won from P17, passing from the ninth row to defeat a field initially headed by two Richard Childress Racing cars.

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