Corey Heim paces NASCAR Truck Series practice at Charlotte Roval

Corey Heim kept the good times rolling in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series practice at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Roval on Friday. 

Heim, who has won nine times so far during the 2025 Truck Series season, laid down the fastest lap of Friday's practice session. 

Brent Crews, Connor Zilisch, Connor Mosack and Kaden Honeycutt rounded out the top five, with Josh Bilicki, Layne Riggs, Corey LaJoie, Parker Kligerman and Grant Enfinger completing the top 10. 

Other notable practice results include defending Truck Series champion Ty Majeski in 12th, Rajah Caruth in 13th, Tyler Ankrum in 14th, two-time series champion Ben Rhodes in 16th and three-time series champion Matt Crafton in 26th. 

Truck Series races for first time at Charlotte Roval

Friday's race will be the first time the Truck Series has ever raced on the Charlotte Roval. The race is the first event in the Truck Series' Round of 8, which is the penultimate round of the Truck Series playoffs. 

Heim leads the Truck Series playoff standings going into Friday's race with a 69-point advantage to the cut line. Majeski is currently tied (+0) with Ankrum for the final provisional transfer spot, though Majeski holds the tiebreaker. 

Truck Series qualifying is next on FS2. The Ecosave 250 will go green shortly after 3:30 p.m. ET, with coverage on FS1, NRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
