Front Row Motorsports: Richmond Raceway NCTS Race Advance- Layne Riggs / Chandler Smith

• The Richmond Raceway will host the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series regular-season finale this Friday night before the Playoffs begin in two weeks at the Darlington Raceway. For Layne Riggs and the No. 34, Richmond offers the opportunity to head into the Playoffs with strong momentum. In two previous Truck Series starts, Riggs has one top-five finish, finishing fifth at the track in his 2024 rookie season.

• “I’m looking forward to Richmond,” said Riggs. We brought a fast Ford F-150 last year and finished fifth, so we have a lot of data points to work off of and know where we can improve. With this being the regular-season finale, I want to leave Richmond with a solid result to carry us into the Playoffs.”

• Chandler Smith faces the Richmond Raceway this Friday night with his sights set on adding another trophy to his collection. From 2022 to 2024, he’s been unbeatable at the 0.75-mile track, earning victories across both the NASCAR Truck and Xfinity Series. Smith first conquered Richmond in 2022 with Kyle Busch Motorsports in the Truck Series, then followed it up with Xfinity Series wins in 2023 with Kaulig Racing and again in 2024 with Joe Gibbs Racing.

• The No. 38 team will sport a returning brand on their Ford F-150 as the Pete Store makes their 2025 season debut. A three-time Peterbilt North American Dealer of the Year (2004, 2016, and 2018), The Pete Store is a respected dealer in the transportation industry with locations spanning the eastern United States. The Pete Store offers sales, services, leasing, parts, and financing of Peterbilt trucks.

• “Our expectation is to win Richmond,” said Smith. “We’re bringing a new truck this weekend, so practice will be crucial in getting it dialed in for the race. If we can qualify upfront, I know we can stay up there and compete for the win. I want to end the Regular Season with a win and head into the Playoffs with momentum.”
