The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series returns to Las Vegas Motor Speedway this weekend but with a different twist. They will now have two races this year. One in the spring and of course, the annual one in the fall during the Playoffs.
The general consensus is that Atlanta was a boring race. I disagree. Let me share as to why. There is no debate that Kevin Harvick had the best car, that based on performance his was the auto that should have won. However, when drama was needed we had weather and strategy apparently conspiring to beat him. Would it rain? Would Denny Hamlin be in front at the right time when the heavens opened up?
The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series visited the 1.5-mile racetrack in Atlanta, Georgia this past weekend for the annual Active Pest Control 200. Here are four takeaways from that event.
The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series came to Atlanta Motor Speedway this past weekend following the NASCAR Xfinity Series, the only doubleheader of the season. The Active Pest Control 200 sure didn't disappoint as it came down to the wire and the last restart of the race.
While Harvick led more than half the time, Brad Keselowski was second after holding point for 38 laps. Denny Hamlin was fourth with 26 up front, while Kurt Busch settled for eighth, taking the second stage and leading 52 circuits.
After a flat tire during Stage 1, John Hunter Nemechek battles back to finish 4th in his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at Atlanta Motor Speedway in Saturday's Rinnai 250.
Although Christopher Bell did not dominate Atlanta nor win the race, he turned some heads after Saturday’s race. Last year’s Truck Series champion only led 12 laps in his No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota but finished third and presented speed and experience behind the wheel.
Kevin Harvick held three fingers out his window on his way to Victory Lane after Sunday's Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. The salute to Dale Earnhardt Sr. replicated the one he made 17 years ago after his first win as a NASCAR Cup Series driver.
The 21-year-old Garcia from Monroe, Georgia, led 104 of 250-scheduled laps and persevered through a fuel-only pit stop prior to the final stage period to become the 219th competitor to win in the Truck division.
When the checkered flag waved in Thursday night’s ARCA Menards Series East race at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway, Tristan McKee was crowned the 2026 series champion.
The 24-year-old Riggs from Bahama, North Carolina, was awarded the pole position for the 2026 Chase opener at Thunder Valley due to inclement weather canceling qualifying in its final stages.
