Get ready, racing fans, because the 2026 Daytona Speedweeks is about to kick into high gear, and the pit stall assignments are the unsung heroes that could make or break the race weekend! Whether you're rooting for the NASCAR Cup Series, the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, or the Craftsman Truck Series, knowing where your favorite drivers will pit is like having a backstage pass to the action. But here's where it gets interesting: these assignments aren’t just random—they’re strategic, and they can dramatically influence race outcomes. So, where will your driver be stationed this weekend at Daytona International Speedway? We’ve got you covered—though the specifics are still under wraps, we’ll update this as soon as the pit stalls are finalized.

Speaking of strategy, the Craftsman Truck Series’ Fresh From Florida 250 on Friday (7:30 p.m. ET on FS1) is a must-watch event, where pit stall choices could be the difference between victory and defeat.
