Colin Braun Returns to NASCAR Truck Series at Lime Rock Park

Colin Braun is set to make his comeback to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series this summer, slated to wheel the No. 25 Ram 1500 for Kaulig Racing at Lime Rock Park on July 11. The 37‑year‑old driver brings a deep sports car résumé that includes a ninth‑place finish in the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg earlier this year, a Le Mans podium in 2006, and three WeatherTech SportsCar Championship titles captured in 2014, 2015 and 2022. Braun’s early stock‑car experience earned him the 2007 Truck Series Rookie of the Year award and a lone victory at Michigan International Speedway in 2009, moments that still resonate with longtime fans. His recent Rolex 24 at Daytona triumph in 2023 underscores the versatility that has defined his career, while his four overall GTP class wins at the 24‑hour event highlight a record of endurance excellence. Matt Kaulig, the founder of Kaulig Racing, expressed excitement about the partnership, noting that the collaboration blends Ram’s automotive heritage with the team’s innovative approach. The upcoming race marks a symbolic return of the Ram brand to NASCAR after a 13‑year hiatus, a move that aligns with Kaulig Racing’s expansion from its 2016 founding into a multi‑series powerhouse boasting 27 Xfinity victories. The No. 25 entry will share the grid with a roster of seasoned competitors including Tony Stewart, Jamie McMurray, Ty Dillon, Corey LaJoie, Travis Pastrana, Parker Kligerman, Clint Bowyer, A.J. Allmendinger, Carson Ferguson and Ryan Newman, each bringing their own pedigree to the historic Connecticut road course. Fans can catch the action live on FS1 and the NASCAR Network at 1 p.m. on July 11, a broadcast that promises to showcase both Braun’s seasoned skill set and the fresh energy of the new Ram partnership.
