Spire Motorsports announced that Chase Elliott will drive the No. 7 Chevrolet Silverado at North Wilkesboro, making his first start in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series since the 2023 season-opener at Daytona. HendrickCars.com will sponsor the effort.
This race was scheduled to be one of Kyle Busch's 2026 Truck appearances with Spire, before his unexpected passing last month.
