This weekend, we head to Phoenix Raceway for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Championship Race. The race is Friday night at 8:00 PM ET on FS1. Corey Heim, Ty Majeski, Christian Eckes, and Grant Enfinger will be battling it out for the Championship. We’ve had 4 short-flat track races in the Truck Series. Eckes, Majeski, Heim and Enfinger all rank inside the top 5 in speed. I think to win the Championship, you’ll need to win this race. I’ll be using recent Phoenix data, short-flat track data, practice, recent 2024 speed, and a few other things when building lineups. The Championship 4 dominated practice on Thursday. Qualifying is Friday at 4:00 PM ET, and I will try to have projections up by 5:45 PM ET. I will say, I think this is the best Championship 4 we’ve had in the Truck Series in a while.

The stages are 45, 45, and 60, which is a total of 150 laps. With 150 laps, we’re looking at 67.5 potential fastest lap points and 37.5 laps led points. Last season, there was 12 cautions, and in 2022, there was 7 cautions. The 4 races before that, there were 5 cautions or less. The race winner has started inside the top 5 in fiv5e of the last 6 races here. The race here last year was great until the final stage. Heim and Majeski had the best two Trucks and got stuck towards the back.
