2025 Craftsman Truck Series Playoffs Field, Garcia & Honeycutt In
Column By: NASCAR MEDIA – RICHMOND, V.A – Following Tricon Garage driver Corey Heim’s victory in Friday night’s regular-season finale at Richmond Raceway, the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Playoffs field was finalized with 10 drivers securing a spot to compete for a championship.
Heim enters the postseason as the top seed, having won this year’s Regular Season Championship and seven races.
Layne Riggs, Chandler Smith, Daniel Hemric, Tyler Ankrum and Rajah Caruth all locked up their respective playoff berths by winning at least one race.
Grant Enfinger, defending series champion Ty Majeski, Kaden Honeycutt and Jake Garcia made the playoffs on points.
With ThorSport Racing’s Garcia being the 10th and final driver in the postseason, the first driver out was his teammate and two-time Truck Series champion Ben Rhodes.
An additional playoff spot opened up before Richmond, with Halmar Friesen Racing’s Stewart Friesen declining to pursue a medical waiver to retain his postseason eligibility that he earned after winning at Michigan International Speedway in June. Friesen continues to recover from pelvic and leg fractures suffered in a dirt modified wreck in late July, while Honeycutt pilots the No. 52 Toyota during his absence.
The Truck Series Playoffs kick off with the Sober or Slammer 200 on Saturday, Aug. 30, at Darlington Raceway (Noon ET, FS1, NRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
