Qualifying for Friday’s NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event at Indianapolis Raceway Park has been axed due to inclement weather. The session was scheduled to take place after the series’ multi-group practice on Friday afternoon.

Per the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Rule Book, the starting lineup for the TSPORT 200 will be set by NASCAR’s Performance Metric (which also determines the order in which drivers will qualify on a week-to-week basis.

Corey Heim, a five-time winner in the NASCAR Truck Series this season and the winner of the series’ most recent event at Lime Rock Park, will roll from the pole position in the No. 11 Safelite Toyota Tundra TRD Pro for TRICON Garage.

Defending NASCAR Truck Series champion Ty Majeski will start alongside Heim on the front row for Friday’s 200-lap contest. Majeski is also the defending winner of this event at the 0.686-mile short track in Clermont, Indiana.

STARTING LINEUP: T-SPORT 200 at IRP

Chandler Smith will roll from third-place in the No. 38 Ford F-150 for Front Row Motorsports, with rookie driver Gio Ruggiero sitting in fourth. Two-time NASCAR Truck Series champion Ben Rhodes will round out the top-five starters.

Daniel Hemric, Tyler Ankrum, Grant Enfinger, Luke Fenhaus, and Kaden Honeycutt will complete the top-10. Other notable starters include Layne Riggs (11th), Ross Chastain (12th), Brent Crews (13th), Corey Day (16th), Rajah Caruth (19th), and Stewart Friesen (21st).
