With less than one month until the beginning of the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series campaign, Sprie Motorsports has confirmed the crew chief lineup for the team’s four entries.
After spending last season with REV Racing in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, Allen Hart jumps to Spire Motorsports to serve as crew chief of the No. 07 Chevrolet Silverado. Hart also spent two seasons as crew chief and technical director of NASCAR Xfinity Series team Sam Hunt Racing.

The newly minted fourth entry for Spire Motorsports — which was established over the off-season following the disbanding of the team’s partnership with REV Racing — will feature a rotating cast of drivers.
Brian Pattie, a long-time NASCAR Cup Series crew chief, will maintain his post aboard the pit box of the No. 7 Chevrolet Silverado in 2025, which will also feature multiple drivers.
Only Hendrick Motorsports development driver Corey Day has been confirmed to pilot the No. 7 Chevrolet Silverado in 2025. Day will run an eight-race schedule beginning at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Rajah Caruth will return to the driver’s seat of the No. 71 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet Silverado for the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series campaign, albeit with a new crew chief.
Kevin “Bono” Manion will return to Spire Motorsports in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series working with Rajah Caruth. Manion is a five-time NASCAR Cup Series winner, 17-time NASCAR Xfinity Series winner, and 11-time NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series winner.
Finally, as previously announced, Chad Walter will pivot to the No. 77 Chevrolet Silverado to work with NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series rookie Andres Perez de Lara, as he tackles his first full-time campaign in 2025.
