Tyler Reddick claims Cup Series pole at New Hampshire Motor Speedway

NASCAR weekend activities at New Hampshire Motor Speedway saw significant developments in both the Cup and Truck Series. In the Cup Series, Tyler Reddick secured the pole position for the Dollar Tree 301 with a lap of 29.054 seconds, rebounding from a difficult practice session where he finished 31st. The race start time was moved up to 2:00 PM ET due to forecasted inclement weather.

In the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series regular-season finale, Layne Riggs claimed his sixth victory of the season and secured the No. 1 seed for the upcoming playoffs after a dramatic double overtime finish. The battle for the final Chase spot was equally intense; Tyler Ankrum successfully defended the 10th position to secure a playoff berth, narrowly beating out Stewart Friesen and Jake Garcia despite experiencing brake issues during the race.
