- Kligerman, a full-time broadcaster, has already raced in three NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series races with Kaulig Racing and Henderson Motorsports this season. Next weekend, Kligerman will add a fourth team to that list as he joins forces with Spire Motorsports for the Series’ race at Lime Rock Park.
- This race will be the first NASCAR National Series start for the Connecticut native at his home track. Of course, Kligerman’s ties to the track go further than that, as he is a member of Lime Rock Group, which owns the track.
- While Kligerman has shown to be a solid driver at all sorts of tracks, the 35-year-old has shown a knack for road course racing. So far in his Truck Series career, he has just one road course win at Mid-Ohio in 2022, and came close to his first NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series win at the Charlotte Roval in 2024.
- Much like last season’s debut race at the track, the field for the Truck Series race at Lime Rock is expected to have a field of series’ regulars and road course ringers. Among those already announced for the field is former IMSA Champion Colin Braun, who is making his second start of the season with Kaulig Racing.
