1997 - Craftsman Truck Series - Chevy Trucks Challenge Race

For 2023 (Stanley Black & Decker) Craftsman returned as the primary sponsor of the NASCAR Truck Series replacing Camping World. The Truck Series is a modified production pickup truck racing series of NASCAR. In 1947 Bill France gathered promoters from Southeast, Northeast, and Midwest to the Ebony Bar atop the Streamline Inn in Daytona, and drew up the initial rules and regulations of the modern day NASCAR.- the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. The first "true" NASCAR race, in the division that would lead to the present-day  Sprint Cup Series, and the Nationwide Series was held at the Charlotte (N.C.) Fairgrounds on June 19, 1949.
