Layne Riggs secured his second NASCAR Truck Series win of the 2025 season last night at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park. By leading 160 of the 200 laps and winning both stages, Riggs delivered a commanding performance that reinforced his status as a top contender this year.
Race Summary and Team Effort Behind Riggs’ Success
Riggs’ victory marked his fourth career Truck Series win and the fourth for Front Row Motorsports in 2025. Thanks to a fast and reliable truck, built with the help of crew chief Dylan Cappello and the entire team at their Mooresville shop, Riggs was able to control the race from start to finish. He expressed pride in the partnership, especially with sponsor Clew Nicotine Pouches achieving a win in just their second race together.
Riggs reflected on the significance of the track, saying,
“This truck was absolutely flying today. Dylan (Cappello), the entire team, and everyone back at the shop in Mooresville brought me a rocket ship—it made my job easy. It’s awesome to get Clew Nicotine Pouches to Victory Lane in just their second race with us. This track is special to me. I made my first Truck Series start here in 2022, and my dad ran his first Truck race here back in 1999. To come full circle and grab the win here is just really cool.”
