Layne Riggs Notes
After a dominating win at the Pocono Raceway last Friday, Layne Riggs and the No. 34 Ford F-150 team will return north, this time to Lakeview, Connecticut for a 100-lap race at Lime Rock Park. For the first time in its 68-year history, the 1.53-mile scenic Connecticut road course will host a NASCAR national touring series event as the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series makes its debut appearance at the track.
Bare Knuckle Boxing (BKB) will serve as the primary partner of Riggs and the No. 34 Ford F-150 team. Originating in South Florida with combat sports legend Dada 5000 and Mike Vazquez (who in 1999 formed HRT Motorsports, NASCAR’s first Hispanic racing team), BKB is the oldest professional bare knuckle boxing company in the world and its largest in terms of roster, library and distribution. BKB is broadcasted in millions of homes across the globe, including a recent groundbreaking live television deal with VICE TV in North America.
“There’s a lot of weight off our chests knowing that we’ve locked ourselves into the playoffs,” said Riggs. “While our main goal is to win races, we still want to score as many points as possible before the playoffs start. As a team, the momentum is strong, and I have a good feeling that we can execute this weekend and go back-to-back.”

Chandler Smith Notes
Chandler Smith and the No. 38 team will face their first road course of the season as the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series heads to Lime Rock Park in Lakeview, Connecticut for a 100-lap race. In his 12 road course starts in the Xfinity Series, Smith has two top-five and six top-10 finishes.
Through the first 14 races of the season, Smith has earned two wins, four top-five, and 10 top-10 finishes. Following the race at the Pocono Raceway, Smith is still second in the Truck Series Driver Championship points standings.
“I’m pumped about racing at Lime Rock,” said Smith. “We haven’t raced a road course yet, but I’m confident in my team to bring a fast Long John Silver’s Ford F-150. We have a three-week break after Lime Rock, so I’d like to head into the break with a win.”
