Thompson on making his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Debut at Sonoma: “I’m excited to head back to my home state and to a track that I have familiarity with in Sonoma. The ability to compete in the ARCA Menards Series West race will be a good confidence-booster for me prior to running the Truck Series race and that ability to bring some notes back to our No. 40 Worldwide Express team works as an advantage for us this weekend.”
Thompson at Sonoma Raceway: Thompson makes his first-career NASCAR Camping World Truck Series start at Sonoma Raceway Saturday. He made one ARCA Menards Series West start at the California road course in 2021 and ran to a sixth-place finish after starting 13th.
