Three-time NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series champion Matt Crafton is returning for a one-off effort in Friday’s season-finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, piloting a fifth entry – the No. 66 Menards / MasterForce Tools Ford F-150 – for ThorSport Racing.

Crafton is the all-time starts leader in the NASCAR Truck Series, having competed full-time in the division from 2001 to 2025, in which time he has amassed 592 career starts, 15 wins, 135 top-five finishes, and 333 top-10s, as well as series championships in 2013, 2014, and 2019.

Known for his stint as the driver of the iconic neon-yellow Menards-sponsored No. 88 (which is now driven by Ty Majeski), Crafton returns to competition this weekend with the support of his long-time sponsor and as a teammate to Cole Butcher, Ty Majeski, Ben Rhodes, and Jake Garcia.

In his 24 NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series starts at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Crafton has been to Victory Lane on one occasion, in 2015, while also recording four top-fives and 14 top-10s. The 50-year-old driver also clinched his three championships at the 1.5-mile racetrack in Miami, Florida.

Friday’s 200-mile contest at Homestead marks the first appearance of the ThorSport Racing No. 66 during the 2026 NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series campaign, after the entry ran 20 of 25 events on the schedule in 2025.

The NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Championship Race at Homestead-Miami Speedway will take place on Friday, November 6 at 6:30 PM ET on FOX Sports 1.
