It’s Charlotte week for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series as the series heads into Race 10 of the season.
Last week at Dover Motor Speedway, Kyle Busch dominated in the Spire Motorsports No. 7 truck. Now, he returns this weekend looking to continue that momentum in the NC Education Lottery 200.
Kaden Honeycutt enters the weekend leading the championship standings, holding a 38-point advantage over Layne Riggs. Both drivers had strong runs at the Monster Mile, each earning top-five finishes.
Last season, Honeycutt and Riggs both placed their trucks inside the top five at Charlotte. This weekend, one of the two will look to capture the checkered flag and strengthen their playoff position.
Some notable drivers competing on Friday night include Brandon Jones (#1), Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (#4), William Sawalich (#5), Kyle Busch (#7), Ross Chastain (#45), Shane van Gisbergen (#71), and Connor Zilisch (#77).
Ross Chastain and Connor Zilisch will both attempt triple duty this weekend, with 1,101 miles scheduled across the Truck, Xfinity, and Cup Series races for the Trackhouse Racing teammates.
