The 2026 ARCA Menards Series was the 74th season of the ARCA Menards Series, a stock car racing series sanctioned by NASCAR in the United States. The season began at Daytona International Speedway with the General Tire 200 on February 14 and ended with the Reese's 150 at Kansas Speedway on September 25.
Brenden Queen entered the season as the defending champion,[1] but did not return to defend his title as he moved up to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series full-time in 2026, driving for Kaulig Racing.[2] In a close championship battle that went all the way down to the finale at Kansas Speedway, Thomas Annunziata won the championship over Jake Bollman by virtue of a tiebreaker, because of Annuziata's sole race win of the season giving him the title. The No. 18 Toyota of Joe Gibbs Racing won the Owner's Champsionship by just eight points over the No. 28 Chevrolet of Pinnacle Racing Group.
