Spire Motorsports Calls on ARCA Points Leader For Start at IRP

What’s Happening?

Brenden “Butterbean” Queen, the current ARCA Menards Series Points Leader, will make his return to the Craftsman Truck Series with Spire Motorsports at Lucas Oil Raceway Park on Jul. 25.

• Queen made his NASCAR National Series debut in the Craftsman Truck Series with TRICON Garage last season. In three starts, the 26-year-old finished no higher than 4th, doing so in his debut at North Wilkesboro Speedway.
• While 2024 marked his official NASCAR debut, Queen’s focus last season was on Late Model racing, winning the CARS Tour Late Model Stock Car championship. This spring, the 27-year-old announced his switch to the ARCA Menards Series, where he currently competes for Pinnacle Racing Group in their No. 28 entry.
• This past February at Daytona, Queen’s first ARCA start since 2019, the short track ace won the series season opener. He has since won two more races and has only failed to finish inside the top-five twice, resulting in a nine-point lead in the series standings over Venturini Motorsports’ Lawless Alan.
• Queen will drive the No. 07 truck for Spire at IRP, one of the team’s two part-time trucks in their four-truck stable. He joins a list of twelve drivers, including names such as Kyle Larson, Kyle Busch, and Michael McDowell, to have driven the No. 07 this season.
