RAM and Kaulig Racing have found their first driver for their new NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series team that will debut in 2026. On Thursday, Kaulig Racing announced that 28-year-old Brenden Queen, the 2025 ARCA Menards Series champion, will be the full-time driver of one of the team’s RAM entries for the 2026 Truck Series season. A truck number for Queen was not announced. Queen, who shot to national prominence with his dominant ARCA campaign this season, could be Kaulig’s headlining driver in their first Truck Series season. The Chesapeake, Va., native rose through the ranks of late model racing before becoming a fixture in ARCA, where he’s won eight races in 21 starts. Queen made his Truck Series debut at North Wilkesboro Speedway in 2024, where he finished fourth. He also scored his first career top-10 finish in the NASCAR Xfinity Series at Kansas Speedway on Sept. 27, finishing ninth in the No. 11 Kaulig Racing Chevrolet. Queen will run the final three races of the 2025 Xfinity Series season with Kaulig
