Career
Creed is a former NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series champion (2020) who has spent recent seasons establishing himself as a top-tier O'Reilly Series competitor with Haas Factory Team. He brings championship-caliber experience and a mechanical background that traces to dirt racing and off-road competition before he reached NASCAR's national ranks.
Corey Day led 136 of 201 laps from the pole, then had to take the lead back from Carson Kvapil twice in the last 12. Sheldon Creed kept the Chase lead, now 19 points over Kvapil, after Justin Allgaier was caught in an early crash.
Sheldon Creed passed William Sawalich on an overtime restart and won the Food City 300 at Bristol by 0.253 seconds, leading only the final three laps. Carson Kvapil and Jesse Love led 240 laps between them and finished 24th and 17th. Creed now leads the O'Reilly Series Chase by 11 points over Justin Allgaier with six races left.
Jesse Love took the lead with fifteen laps to go and won the Nu Way 225 at World Wide Technology Raceway, his first victory of 2026. Sheldon Creed finished second and left St. Louis leading the O'Reilly Series Chase by three points over Justin Allgaier, who has won six races this season to Creed's two.
Bell won the Cook Out Southern 500 by 1.038 seconds over Ty Gibbs, his first victory in 33 races and the end of a season with seven runner-up finishes. His crew gave away the lead on a stop after he had won the second segment, and he took it back with 12 laps to go. Ty Gibbs finished second after starting 28th.
Jeremy Clements has more starts than anyone in the history of NASCAR's second national series, and says the hardest part of the job is funding, not driving. His family's engine shop is why he lasted; his car runs Hendrick engines now. Two other teams at Darlington described the same trade.
Creed led the final 53 laps and won Saturday night's Fleetio 200 by 2.961 seconds, his second career win in the series. Allgaier led more laps than anyone, hit the wall with 23 to go and finished 17th. His championship lead, 229 points in August and 25 after the Chase reset, is now seven.
Justin Allgaier ended the regular season 229 points clear. The Chase reset left him 25 ahead of teammate Carson Kvapil going into Saturday's Fleetio 200 at Darlington, where Allgaier has four spring wins and none in the fall.
The NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series opens its first Chase on Saturday night at Darlington. The 12 drivers, the reset points, the track history, the tire and the schedule.
Kvapil came in tied for the most runner-up finishes without a win in series history. He led the last 22 laps at Indianapolis to end it, and JR Motorsports took the next three spots behind him.
The team has put a car in the top 10 in 78 straight races. One more ties the all-time mark. Chase Elliott is in the car on the oval where his father won the Brickyard 400.
Justin Allgaier came from 16th through 13 cautions and three red flags to win the Focused Health 250 at Atlanta, his sixth O'Reilly Series win of the season. He now leads the championship by 240 points.
Austin Hill won the inaugural O'Reilly Auto Parts Series race at San Diego's Naval Base Coronado, surviving a 25-car wreck and a run of engine failures for the 16th series victory of his career. Justin Allgaier still leads the championship comfortably.
