News Summary:

A group seeking to end auto racing at The Fairgrounds Nashville filed an amended charter referendum petition on April 26, 2026. This development came less than a full business day after Davidson County Chancellor Pat Moskal ruled against their prior effort on April 23, rejecting a proposed petition to amend the Metro charter to ban auto racing. Moskal's ruling stated the group's initial title did not clearly express the referendum's subject and was viewed as a win for racing supporters hoping Mayor Freddie O'Connell and Speedway Motorsports Inc. will reach a deal to invest in the track and bring NASCAR races back to Nashville. Separately, on April 21, 2026, Suburban Propane sponsored its inaugural NASCAR race at Bristol Motor Speedway, unveiling a new mascot at the April 11 NASCAR-sanctioned event, marking the kickoff of its partnership with NASCAR and Speedway Motorsports. Earlier, on April 15, 2026, construction crews advanced work on Bristol Dragway's new concrete racing surface, pouring concrete from the starting line to the eighth-mile mark as part of a project that has been underway for several months.
