Kaulig Racing announced Saturday (Feb. 28) that the next driver of the free agent, No. 25 Kaulig RAM truck will be Corey LaJoie at Darlington Raceway on Friday (Mar. 20).
LaJoie recently raced at Daytona in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for Henderson Motorsports in the No. 75 truck. He finished 34th in the event, retiring from the race early with engine issues.
This will be LaJoie’s 16th career truck start and his third at Darlington. He finished 16th and 20th, respectively, in 2023 and 2025 while driving for Spire Motorsports.
LaJoie will be the fourth different driver of the No. 25 truck in four races to start the 2026 season in the Trucks Series as Tony Stewart raced the truck at Daytona International Speedway, Ty Dillon raced it at EchoPark Speedway in Atlanta, and Colin Braun will be behind the wheel today at the St. Petersburg street circuit.
