Suburban Propane Fuels Bristol Motor Speedway with NASCAR Sponsorship

Bristol Motor Speedway is entering a new era powered by a partnership with Suburban Propane. The company will be the entitlement sponsor for the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race on Saturday, April 11, 2026, officially naming it the Suburban Propane 300. The race is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. ET, with television coverage on The CW and radio coverage on PRN Radio and Sirius XM NASCAR Radio.

Expanding NASCAR Presence

This marks Suburban Propane’s first race entitlement in NASCAR, building on an existing relationship established in January 2025 when the company was named the Official Propane of Speedway Motorsports and NASCAR. As part of that agreement, Suburban Propane provides propane for track dryers and supports operations at Speedway Motorsports facilities. Bristol Motor Speedway officials announced the sponsorship.

A Century of Energy Leadership

Suburban Propane, a nationwide distributor of propane, renewable propane, renewable natural gas, fuel oil, and related products, has been serving communities across America for nearly a century. The company also markets natural gas and electricity and invests in low-carbon fuel alternatives.

Star-Studded Field Expected

The Suburban Propane 300 is anticipated to draw a competitive field, including notable drivers such as Justin Allgaier, Sheldon Creed, Austin Hill, Harrison Burton, Jesse Love, Carson Kvapil, Taylor Gray, Brent Crews, and defending race winner Kyle Larson. Bristol Motor Speedway confirmed these drivers are expected to participate.

Dash 4 Cash Incentive

Adding to the excitement, the race is part of NASCAR’s Dash 4 Cash program, offering a $100,000 bonus to the highest-finishing qualified competitor. The top four finishers from the Suburban Propane 300 will be eligible to compete for the bonus at the next O’Reilly Auto Parts Series Dash 4 Cash event at Kansas Speedway.

Weekend of Racing

The April race weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway will also feature the Tennessee Army National Guard 250 Truck Race on April 10 and the Food City 500 NASCAR Cup Series race on Sunday, April 12.
