Kaden Honeycutt - Weather Guard Truck Race Recap
Event: Weather Guard Truck Race (250 laps / 133.25 miles)
Round: 6 of 25 (Regular Season)
Track: Bristol Motor Speedway
Location: Bristol, Tennessee
Date & Time: Friday, April 11 | 7:30 PM ET
No. 45 DQS Solutions & Staffing / Masked Owl Technologies Chevrolet Silverado RST
Driver: Kaden Honeycutt | Crew Chief: Phil Gould
Start: 22nd | Stage 1: 12th | Stage 2: 3rd
Finish: 8th | Driver Points: 11th | Owner Points: 12th
- Key Takeaway: Kaden Honeycutt and the No. 45 team secured their third top-10 finish of the season at Bristol. Honeycutt was quick in traffic despite starting 22nd, and shined on long-run speed. The team grabbed eight stage points by finishing third in stage two, and were well on their way to a top-five finish late in the going. Unfortunately, Honeycutt lost track position with Currey's late-race issues, but rebounded to finish a strong eighth.
- Kaden Honeycutt's Post-Race Thoughts:
“Everyone at Niece Motorsports did a fantastic job on this DQS Solutions & Staffing / Masked Owl Technologies No. 45 Chevrolet tonight. We just needed some short-run speed; that’s all we lacked tonight. Our long-run speed was awesome, and I thought we were a top-two truck right there at the end. I wished the late caution never came out because I struggled on the restarts. I hated that our teammates on the No. 44 had those driveshaft issues. That pushed us back a couple of rows, but there’s nothing they could have done. Still a solid night for us in P8, and we’ll keep on trucking with this momentum onto Rockingham next week.”
