What is the Triple Truck Challenge?
Beginning in 2019, “The Trip” is a program that rewards drivers financially for performing well during a three-race stretch in each Truck Series season. Over that span, drivers compete for a $50,000 bonus for winning a race. Should a driver win multiple events, the bonus money increases. If a driver wins two out of three races, he or she will be awarded $150,000. If a driver wins all three Triple Truck Challenge races, a $500,000 prize is awarded.
Where will the Triple Truck Challenge take place this season?
“The Trip” begins its 2025 campaign on March 28 at Martinsville Speedway. The second of the three Triple Truck Challenge races will be on April 11 at Bristol Motor Speedway. The 2025 Triple Truck Challenge finale will occur on April 18 at Rockingham Speedway. This will be the first time all three tracks have hosted the Triple Truck Challenge program.
