Pickup truck racing events in theNASCAR Craftsman Truck Series have been held at theRockingham Speedway inRockingham, North Carolina in 2012 and 2013, and returned to the track in 2025.Tyler Ankrum is the defending race winner.
On September 2, 2011, NASCAR announced that Rockingham Speedway would hold a Camping World Truck Series event for the 2012 season.[1] The inaugural race was run on April 15, 2012, and was won byKasey Kahne.[2][3]
In 2013,Kyle Larson won his first truck series win in his first year but the race became notable because of controversy. Truck series veteranRon Hornaday Jr. got contact withKyle Busch Motorsports driver; the rookieDarrell Wallace Jr. In a similar fashion to an incident withKyle Busch at Texas two years prior in theWinStar World Casino 350K. Hornaday tapped Wallace sending him into the fences. Ron Hornaday took responsibility and apologized but claimed that he did not intend to wreck Wallace; NASCAR, the media and fans felt differently when they saw a video that showed Hornaday frowning towards Wallace's truck before the tap. NASCAR black-flagged Hornaday and sent him to the back of the field on the restart, later fined him $25,000 and put him on probation until June 12. The penalties were also controversial because the fans, drivers, and medias wanted Hornaday's penalties harsher since Kyle Busch was parked after the Texas incident.[citation needed]
In 2014, the Truck Series did not return to the track due to financial struggles.[4]
Track Enterprises, a short track promoter that promotes numerous regional races owned bySpire Sports + Entertainment, and promotes various ARCA races and theChampion Racing Association, was unable to agree with theWisconsin State Fair with theMilwaukee Mile to host a race in Milwaukee after hosting from 2023 and 2024. Promoters moved the race to Rockingham after NASCAR's schedule released. It was held during the only off-week for theCup Series for Easter.[5]Tyler Ankrum won in the race's return.
