The 29th INEX Bandolero Championship Nationals will take place at EchoPark Speedway in Hampton, Georgia. While it is the ninth time Bando Nats will be on the quarter-mile within the big oval, it will be the first time since since the EchoPark renaming. In 2024, the two champions both secured their respective 2025 INEX Bandolero National Championships at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The 2026 edition will feature two days of feature racing. On Friday, all competition will be separate from Saturday's Bandolero Championship Nationals. The Outlaws, Bandits, and Beginner Bandoleros will all get a standalone feature, and it will be an INEX National Qualifier Feature for Outlaws and Bandits.
Saturday will include practice and qualifying ahead of the Bandolero Championship Nationals feature races, with the day ending with a Legend Car INEX National Qualifier feature before the trophy presentation.
To reserve camping spots, please call the EchoPark Speedway ticket office at 770-946-4211.
