NASCAR Truck - Michigan

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series returns to Michigan International Speedway in 2025, bringing high-speed truck racing back to Brooklyn, Michigan after a five-year absence. This 200-mile race features 100 laps on one of NASCAR's fastest tracks, with speeds often exceeding 190 mph.

Michigan International Speedway offers a unique racing experience with its 2-mile D-shaped oval. The 18-degree banking in the turns and wide racing surface allows drivers multiple racing lines, creating close competition and passing opportunities throughout the field.

The NASCAR truck event will showcase 36 purpose-built racing trucks from Chevrolet, Ford, and Toyota. These trucks follow strict technical rules, with each vehicle weighing 3,400 pounds without driver or fuel. The race format includes three stages (30-30-40 laps), giving fans multiple opportunities to see critical moments as drivers battle for position.

Michigan International Speedway has a rich history dating back to 1968. The facility spans over 1,400 acres in the Irish Hills region and includes the main superspeedway plus multiple road course layouts designed by racing legend Stirling Moss. The track gained prominence under Roger Penske's ownership from 1973-1999, who transformed it into a premier racing destination.

Fans attending the Michigan nascar-truck race will enjoy excellent sightlines from the 56,000-seat grandstands. The track's location in the scenic Irish Hills area makes it a perfect weekend destination for racing fans. The event serves as part of the first three races used to set seeding for the NASCAR Cup Series in-season tournament.
