Team Reaume has inked a 12-race agreement with up-and-coming driver Luke Baldwin for the 2026 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series campaign, the organization announced on Tuesday.
The 19-year-old son of former NASCAR Cup Series crew chief and team owner Tommy Baldwin, Jr., will pilot the No. 2 Ford F-150 for just under half of the campaign, starting at Rockingham on April 3.
“I am super excited for this new venture with Team Reaume. Josh’s ambition and hard-working attitude throughout this whole process have been extremely appealing to me, and I can’t wait to be a part of it. We have a lot of things coming together, including more technical support and great people coming in, which makes me super optimistic. I’m very thankful for Josh and everybody at Team Reaume for the opportunity.”
In addition to Rockingham, Baldwin will also compete in events at Bristol (April 10), Dover (May 15), Charlotte (May 22), North Wilkesboro (July 18), IRP (July 24), Richmond (August 14), New Hampshire (August 22), Bristol (September 17), Kansas (September 26), Martinsville (October 30), and Homestead (November 6).
“I’m extremely thankful for the opportunity to continue my development with Ford Racing. Being part of a manufacturer that has meant so much to this sport is something I don’t take lightly. I’m excited to get back to work, stay focused on my craft, and continue pushing myself every day to become the best driver I can be,” said Baldwin.
Last season, Baldwin joined forces with ThorSport Racing to run a five-race schedule in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, picking up a pair of top-15 finishes at North Wilkesboro and Pocono while driving the No. 66 Ford F-150, the team’s fifth entry.
Throughout his career, Baldwin has had significant achievements in Tour-Type Modified competition and has also had strong finishes in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour.
Baldwin also played a significant role in bringing Rick Ware Racing to the Owner’s Championship in the zMAX CARS Tour Pro Late Model Division, winning a pair of events at Orange County Speedway and Anderson Motor Speedway.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Luke to Team Reaume,” said Team Owner Josh Reaume. “His performance in modified racing has been nothing short of impressive, and his quick adaptation to the Truck Series shows he has the talent and mindset to compete with the best. I’ve known the Baldwin family for a long time, and after working with Tommy Baldwin on the Team Hezeberg Cup program that qualified for the Daytona 500 in 2022, this feels like a special moment to now work with Luke. We’re excited to support his continued development and look forward to what he’ll accomplish this season.”
Baldwin’s first outing in the No. 2 Ford F-150 will come at Rockingham Speedway on April 3, 2026. Coverage of the event will be on FOX Sports 1, NASCAR Racing Network, and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
