Travis Pastrana will return to NASCAR at the upcoming Craftsman Truck Series season-opening Fresh From Florida 250 at Daytona International Speedway on 13 February.
Pastrana will compete with Niece Motorsports, piloting the No. 42 Brunt Workwear Chevrolet. This marks his first return since 2023, when he raced in both season openers for the Craftsman Truck and Cup Series at Daytona.
While the 42-year-old is more well known for his motocross, rallying and Gymkhana racing, he previously competed full-time in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series (previously the Xfinity Series) in 2013 with Roush Fenway Racing, which later became RFK Racing, and part-time in 2012 with RAB Racing.
“I’m excited to get back on the track in Daytona with Brunt Workwear and Niece Motorsports,” Pastrana said in a team release.
“This is my first NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race since 2023, so it will be fun to get behind the wheel again and see what we can do. It’s great to work with Brunt for the first time in NASCAR.
