Tony Stewart Returning for Talladega Truck Race

Tony Stewart will return to the No. 25 Kaulig Racing truck at Talladega Superspeedway, the team announced Sept. 24.

It will be his second NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series start in 2026, following an appearance at Daytona International Speedway.

“Anytime you can get into a Ram truck and go racing at a place like Talladega, you jump at it,” Stewart said in a team release. “Daytona in February was a blast, but this trip focuses on having fun while helping Kaulig Racing learn and build their notebook on superspeedways.

“Ram put a tremendous amount of heart into this NASCAR return. If my experience helps this team sharpen its drafting package and speed up the learning curve, everyone wins.”

Stewart finished 36th at Daytona due to an accident earlier this year. He has never competed in the Truck Series at Talladega, but he has one win apiece at the 2.66-mile tri-oval in the NASCAR Cup Series and the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series.
