IndyCar Series at Nashville Superspeedway

The Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon, Tennessee has hosted American open-wheel car racing events dating back to 2001.

The 2001 event marked the first American open-wheel event in the Nashville area. During some years events were held on Saturday nights. The 2007 event was postponed until Sunday after a series of rain showers at the track.

Following the 2008 event, Indy Racing League officials decided to end their association with Nashville Superspeedway. The event was removed from the 2009 schedule, and afterwards the facility shuttered for several years. Subsequently renamed as the IndyCar Series, the series returned to the Nashville area in 2021 with the Music City Grand Prix on a downtown street circuit. Due to construction downtown, beginning in 2024 the race was moved to the Nashville Superspeedway. The race is currently the Borchetta Bourbon 400. The race was shifted to be 400 miles for the 2026 running of the race.

As a Nashville-area racing tradition, from 2001 through 2008 the winner received a hand-made and painted Gibson Les Paul guitar. When the current event moved to the Superspeedway in 2024, the guitar tradition continued with agreement by Gibson, promoter Scott Borchetta, and circuit owner Marcus Smith. In 2026, The race was moved up to a 400 mile race, as well as a late July, following the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
