Carson Kvapil won the National Debt Relief 250 at Martinsville Speedway on Saturday, Oct. 31, 0.434 seconds ahead of Justin Allgaier. It was Kvapil's third win of 2026 and his first at Martinsville. Jesse Love finished 30th after a broken water line and a crash when he lost his brakes. Allgaier leads Love by 22 points in the Chase, the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series playoff, with one race left. Corey Day is 23 back, Kvapil 31 and Sheldon Creed 42.
Davey Segal hosts with Dylan "Mamba" Smith. They go through Love's night and Kvapil's win, with Kvapil in his own words from his winner's press conference, Allgaier's multiyear deal to stay with JR Motorsports starting in 2027, and Anthony Alfredo's Stage 2 win. Then the finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Saturday, Nov. 7: what the title would mean to each of the five drivers, Joel Steuben's clinching scenarios, and the picks and the tiebreaker. Mamba takes Corey Day to win and Love for the title; Davey takes Day to win and Allgaier for the title.
