The 2025 NASCAR Truck Series hits Charlotte Motor Speedway on Friday, May 23, for qualifying ahead of the North Carolina Education Lottery 200.
Last time out, the Truck Series raced at North Wilkesboro Speedway as part of NASCAR’s All-Star Weekend, with Chandler Smith winning the Window World 250 in overtime thanks to a late scuffle between his teammate Layne Riggs and Corey Heim.
Heim was furious with Riggs post-race, stepping straight out of his car and going to confront his rival.
Despite that setback and wreck, Heim continues to lead the way in the Truck Series standings heading to Charlotte this weekend.
The No. 11 driver has a 47-point advantage over Smith in second, whilst Daniel Hemric, Tyler Ankrum and Grant Enfinger sit third, fourth and fifth respectively.
With that said, let’s get into all the details you need to know ahead of Friday’s qualifying action!
