Brenden “Butterbean” Queen will partner with Spire Motorsports for a one-off start in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series at Indianapolis Raceway Park, the organization announced on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old driver will get behind the wheel of the No. 07 Chevrolet Silverado RST in the T-Sport 200. Best Repair Company, a long-time supporter of Queen, will serve as the primary sponsor.

“I’m very blessed for the opportunity to get back in the CRAFTSMAN Truck Series with Spire Motorsports and Chevrolet,” said Queen. “Having Best Repair Company be a part of this means a lot to me because they took a chance on me when I was working at the Port of Virginia and was not sure if I would get to continue racing. It is neat to see how far we have come in the last couple of years, and hopefully, this is the first of many more CRAFTSMAN Truck Series starts.”
Queen is the defending champion of the CARS Late Model Stock Car Tour and currently leads the ARCA Menards Series point standings, where he drives the No. 28 Chevrolet SS for Pinnacle Racing Group.
The native of Chesapeake, Virginia, has won three times in the ARCA Menards Series this season, capturing wins in the season-opener at Daytona, as well as Kansas Speedway and Michigan International Speedway.
“I’m really looking forward to working with Brenden,” said Crew Chief Allen Hart. “We have made some gains in the simulator over the past few weeks, so I feel confident as we head to IRP. He has been a blast to work with, so we will definitely carry that enthusiasm into the race.”
The July 25 event at Indianapolis Raceway Park will mark the fourth NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series start for Queen, who in 2024, partnered with TRICON Garage for a three-race slate, which netted a best finish of fourth at North Wilkesboro Speedway.
Queen joins a long list of drivers who have gotten behind the wheel of the No. 07 Chevrolet Silverado this year, a list that includes Kyle Busch, Michael McDowell, Justin Haley, Kyle Larson, William Byron, Sammy Smith, Nick Sanchez, BJ McLeod, Corey LaJoie, Patrick Emerling, and Thomas Annunziata.
The T-Sport 200 from Indianapolis Raceway Park will take place on Friday, July 25, at 8:00 pm ET on FOX Sports 1. The race will also be broadcast via radio on the NASCAR Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
