Corey LaJoie Joins Daytona Truck Series Opener with Henderson Motorsports

Corey LaJoie will broaden his Speedweeks agenda by driving for Henderson Motorsports in the 2026 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series opener at Daytona International Speedway. Piloting the No. 75 Chevrolet Silverado, LaJoie will take part in the Fresh From Florida 250, adding a key race to his Daytona weekend lineup.

Henderson Motorsports Returns with Renewed Ambition Following 2025 Challenges

Henderson Motorsports plans to showcase a revitalized effort at Daytona after a turbulent but competitive 2025 season. The team initially crossed the finish line first in last year’s opener but faced a disqualification that removed the victory. Under the continued guidance of Don Henderson and Debbie Henderson-Creasy, the team looks to start fresh in the new season. Support for LaJoie’s entry comes from sponsors including Built.com, Alliance Driveaway Solutions, and Kingdom Truck Sales.

LaJoie Brings Experienced Talent to Henderson Motorsports’ Truck Series Effort

Having made 14 career starts in the Truck Series, with nine in 2025 alone driving for Spire Motorsports, LaJoie enters the race with solid experience. Throughout that season, he consistently ran near the front and earned several top-five finishes. His participation with Henderson Motorsports adds veteran skill to the team as it aims to regain momentum at the World Center of Racing.

Expanding Speedweeks Role Includes Replacement in Pre-Season Clash

The Truck Series event at Daytona will be just one of LaJoie’s commitments during Speedweeks. He is also scheduled to replace the injured Brad Keselowski in the pre-season Clash race, increasing his presence on the track throughout the busy racing period.

Looking Ahead: Renewed Hope for Henderson Motorsports and LaJoie’s Impact

As the 2026 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series kicks off at Daytona, Henderson Motorsports and Corey LaJoie both carry hopes of turning recent setbacks into success. With LaJoie’s proven track record and the team’s renewed focus, the Fresh From Florida 250 will be a critical opportunity to set a positive tone for the season—one that could influence momentum well beyond the season opener.
