Kyle Busch, famously known as “Rowdy,” is making a high-profile return to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series this weekend, and fans are buzzing with anticipation. He’ll be behind the wheel of the No. 07 Chevrolet Silverado, fielded by Spire Motorsports, for the upcoming race at North Wilkesboro Speedway. This marks Busch’s second Truck Series appearance of the 2025 season, following a dominant performance in Atlanta where he led for 80 laps and clinched a victory, proving that he still has what it takes to compete and win.
Busch, a two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and the all-time wins leader in the Truck Series with 67 victories, isn’t showing up just to make laps — he’s coming to contend. Although this will be his first Truck Series race at North Wilkesboro, he’s no stranger to the track, having competed in two Cup Series All-Star events there. His best finish in those events was 10th place, but his return in a Truck will be a fresh challenge.
Adding intrigue to the race is a potential showdown between Busch and Corey Heim, the current Truck Series leader who already has three wins this season. Heim’s dominance in 2025 makes him a serious rival, and fans are eager to see if the veteran Busch can outpace the rising star.
This race is part of Busch’s five-race deal with Spire Motorsports, following their acquisition of Kyle Busch Motorsports in 2023. No longer tied to running his own team, Busch is focused solely on racing — and winning. Expect sparks to fly this Saturday at Wilkesboro.
