The Bend 500 2026 Schedule & Race Times

Which sessions should I follow?

The Bend 500 is a two-driver endurance round in 2026. Co-driver practice is part of the preparation, so the practice filter can be useful even if your main reminder is for the endurance race.

Qualifying, Top Ten Shootout and practice

Follow qualifying and the Shootout before the race. A practice leader, pole sitter and race-winning driver pairing can be three different entries.

Use the session-type filter above to focus on races, qualifying or practice. Coming up shows the next start first; Completed shows the most recent recorded finish first.

Tailem Bend, SA track time and your city
