Corey Heim Claims Fourth Craftsman Truck Series Pole at Watkins Glen

Corey Heim secured his fourth pole position of the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season at Watkins Glen International, continuing his dominance on road courses with three consecutive wins this year. Driving the No. 11 Tricon Garage Toyota, Heim posted a lap speed of 124.308 mph, narrowly edging out Cup Series driver Christopher Bell, who is filling in for the injured Stewart Friesen. The upcoming Truck Series race at Watkins Glen, scheduled for 5 p.m. ET, will also feature several notable Cup Series drivers including Kyle Busch, Ross Chastain, Chris Buescher, and Connor Zilisch, adding depth to the competition. Heim's performance, particularly his ability to find extra grip in technical sections like the bus stop, highlights his skill and positions him as a favorite to extend his winning streak. Additionally, drivers from Spire Motorsports, such as Sammy Smith and Andres Perez, qualified strongly, indicating potential challengers to Heim's dominance. The race promises to be a compelling showdown between Heim's current form and experienced Cup Series competitors.
