Background
NASCAR has previously held races in the Southern California area for most of its existence, having races at various tracks throughout the 1950s onward, with the addition of Auto Club Speedway to the schedule in 1997 as a superspeedway. It was announced on September 9, 2020, that NASCAR would shorten the track, removing the race following 2023.
Rumors surrounding the Chicago Street Course began after the 2025 race with Chicago's mayor, Brandon Johnson, stating that his administration would like to keep Chicago on the schedule, but after considering changing dates, as the race was held on Independence Day weekend. It was officially announced that the race would be removed following 2025. Other rumors began that NASCAR was looking to hold a street race in the Southern California area as this area was vacant from the schedule. It was officially announced on July 23, 2025, that NASCAR would host a first of its kind street race on the Naval Base Coronado, with the lower national series O'Reilly Auto Parts Series and the Truck Series following suit.
United Rentals was announced as the title sponsor on May 27.
