Layne Riggs will lead the field from the pole position as the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series rolls into Nashville Superspeedway for the upcoming May 29 showdown. The race is scheduled to begin at approximately 8 p.m. Eastern, or 7 p.m. Central, and will be televised on FOX Sports 1, with a live stream available through FUBO, NASCAR.com and SiriusXM.
A somber backdrop
Kaden Honeycutt will line up in second, while Jesse Love, a part‑time entrant for Spire Motorsports, will start third. Love’s participation marks a rare Truck Series outing for the young driver, who brings a fresh perspective to the competitive field.
Rajah Caruth, the defending race winner from last year, is slated to begin the contest in 25th position, hoping to repeat his 2024 triumph and add another victory to his résumé.
The weekend will be marked by tragedy after Kyle Busch, originally scheduled to drive the No. 7 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet, passed away on May 21 following a severe bout of pneumonia that progressed into sepsis. His absence leaves a significant void in the lineup.
Toni Breidinger and Jonathan Shafer also failed to qualify for the event, further shaping the grid for what promises to be a tightly contested race.
The race will cover 150 laps on the 1.33‑mile oval in Lebanon, Tennessee, divided into three stages of 45, 50 and 55 laps, totaling 199.5 miles of high‑speed competition.
Fans can follow the action live on television, tune in to NASCAR Racing Network Radio for audio coverage, or stream the event through FUBO, which offers a free trial, as well as through NASCAR.com and SiriusXM, each requiring a subscription for full access.
