What is the Triple Truck Challenge?
Beginning in 2019, “The Trip” is a program that rewards drivers financially for performing well during a three-race stretch in each Truck Series season. Over that span, a $50,000 bonus is awarded to the winner of each race. Should a driver win multiple events, the bonus money increases. If a driver wins two out of three races, he or she will be awarded $150,000. If a driver wins all three Triple Truck Challenge races, $500,000 total is awarded.
Where will the Triple Truck Challenge take place this season?
“The Trip” begins its 2026 stretch on March 20 at Darlington Raceway. The second of the three Triple Truck Challenge races will be on April 3 at Rockingham Speedway. The 2026 Triple Truck Challenge finale will occur on April 10 at Bristol Motor Speedway. All three venues have hosted the program in prior years; Bristol and Rockingham made up two of the three races during the 2025 stretch, while Darlington hosted the event most recently in 2021.
