I agree, it used to be cool. Trucks was peak from 1995-2015. It was still good from 2016-2018, 2019 was decent, 2020-2023 was a dark and awful year for the series. 2024 was a better year than the last 4 seasons, but Trucks back then was honestly more badass!

[@shaneharrisnj3484]

For me, the peak of the trucks was 2007-11. It had everything.... A few flagship Fox races at Mansfield, Martinsville, and Auto Club, Kyle Busch at his prime, Hornaday vs. Benson, plus underdog wins from Eric Darnell at Michigan in 2007 to 2007 Whelen Mods East champion Donny Lia winning at Mansfield in 2008. Plus, it was unpredictable, and sometimes, the races were better than Cup and Busch/Nationwide on many occasions. Plus, it was the best way to spend a Friday night or Saturday afternoon... Best yet, they fought for bragging rights and a toolbox that is on the roof at Victory Lane... I miss those days.

[@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT]

@ me too. I miss cheering for Ron Hornaday. He’s my #1 favorite Trucks Series driver

[@shaneharrisnj3484]

@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT He still is for me. I remember watching Speed at age 6 in 2009 and seeing a truck with my then favorite colors of Blue and Yellow being 1st on numerous occasions.... That man was Hornaday. Whenever I played NASCAR 08 and 09, I went with the truck with Pittsburgh colors... AKA: Eric Darnell with the Northern Tool truck. NCTS racing needs the NXS/Cup has-beens in order to even out the field between 4 different kinds of drivers... Savvy veterans, young kids, part timers, and 1 Norm Benning. He is in a class of his own.

Everything from TV coverage to the points battles were incredible to witness as a little kid and even now as an adult.

Those are a lot of, but not all, of the Truck-specific tracks they were going to. All had a personality. All put on constant great racing lap after lap. The races were short, so you had to go from the beginning, no "biding your time". There were always lapped trucks. There were always "Truck guys" that you knew would be in the field, week in and week out, year in and year out. It was a great time to be a living racing fan back then.

[@chevyblock550]

I'll step up and be positive here. I worked for a truck team back in 2019. Forgetting about crappy drivers and playoff gimmicks for the moment, the truck series is still awesome today. Going to the ILMOR engine has actually brought more teams into the sport with guys who never had the money to become cup superstars and the fact the truck series hasn't changed too many rules to the trucks actually means for a lot of longevity. A handful of teams have 15 year old chassis today still racing on the track. That is a MAJOR cost saver. The series has guys who are great racers who never would have had another opportunity. The Hill brothers, Bret Holmes for awhile, Ty Majeski, Crafton, Friesen, Bayley Currey, and a bunch more. I think NASCAR knows the truck series has lost some identity and they're slowly getting back to that point. Even in the 2024 season, if you had all 3 series at one track, the truck race was usually the best race. Las Vegas was good. Kansas was good. North Wilkesboro was perfect. Nashville was good. Give it 5 years, the trucks will be off this playoff format and they'll be back at some OG tracks they left behind. NASCAR tried to make it a development series it was never quite made to be.

[@TheForeverRanger]

For all the bad the Truck series has these days, one of the best underdog stories of the last 20 years came from it. I am talking about Brett Moffit.

The difference between today's truck drivers with the older generation ones is the feeder system in racing.... Back then, you had to grind through everything, and you had to pray that someone sees your talent so they can hire you and maybe land a sponsorship deal depending on the team owner. Nowadays, you have drivers who are connected to families who are rich by association with sponsors big and small who will bankroll the driver as the next big thing. Some are good, like Heim, and some are mid, like Connor Jones. But that is racing.. Money is the new name of the game. At least sportswashing isn't in NASCAR yet...

[@TeamAbrams]

The Truck series has definitely fallen from grace but the sport has just gotten too expensive for a lot of the smaller teams, and the purse and TV money was never even as good as the Busch/Xfinity series anyway which is why there's so much ride buying in Trucks nowadays. That's a big part of the reason they went from basically Cup motors at the beginning of the series to the 550hp crate motors that run near WOT all race long on tracks bigger than 1 mile today. ARCA and the east/west series have had a similar downturn and the car counts especially in the regional series are just sad, but at least they have somewhat of their own identity with more local level short tracks which we cannot say for the Truck series anymore. As far as the race format they had it right with the original format with a halfway break and non competitive pit stops, the stages are way too short. This past season when the races weren't total wreckfests, they were just plain boring. Next year I'm just going to skip watching the Trucks entirely.

The issue is the cost to run on the larger tracks if you want to be competitive. Large tracks are all about aero, which means wind tunnel time and massive hours to massage bodies. This means that the clown college with money can easily buy a ride, forcing out the older drivers with no sugar daddy. It also means that a regional driver cannot really afford to show up for one race where he might do well enough to pay for the entry, parts, and tires. Sadly, money talks so it will never go back to the great racing that it used to be.
