NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Race at Richmond

RACE RECAP

Kaden Honeycutt took the lead on Lap 3 and controlled nearly the entire weather-delayed Black's Tire 250. The No. 11 TRICON Garage Toyota swept both stages, led 225 of 250 laps and reclaimed the top spot after the final green-flag pit cycle with 29 laps remaining.

Honeycutt beat teammate Corey Heim by 1.313 seconds for his second victory of 2026 and the second Truck Series win of his career. Christian Eckes finished third, pole winner Shane van Gisbergen was fourth and Grant Enfinger completed the top five after leading 22 laps.

The race had six lead changes among four drivers and three cautions for 24 laps. Tristan McKee finished eighth in his Truck Series debut, while Tyler Ankrum's 11th-place result and Stewart Friesen's late crash shifted the final Chase-cutline battle heading to New Hampshire.
