What’s Happening?

After announcing his retirement from full-time racing, Parker Kligerman will continue to race part-time in 2025. This part-time schedule will be in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, a series Kligerman has a winning history.

• Heather Williams of WCYB Bristol, Virginia, confirmed on X that Henderson Motorsports and Parker Kligerman plan to enter multiple Truck Series races in 2025. Kligerman last raced in the series with Henderson Motorsports in 2023.
• Kligerman focused on his full-time efforts in the Xfinity Series with Big Machine Racing in 2024, and despite his best efforts, he failed to win his first race and make the playoffs.
• Last season was his last shot at a title, as on Sept. 12, Kligerman announced his retirement on X. However, he clarified several times that this was a retirement from full-time racing, but not part-time, as this schedule with Henderson Motorsports suggests.
• The veteran driver has a rich history with this underdog team in the Truck Series dating back to 2017. That season, he won the team’s first race at Talladega, a feat he would repeat in 2022, winning at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.
• Parker is a three-time winner in the Truck Series and has a chance to help the No. 75 team to victory lane once again. His retirement from full-time racing also allows Parker to focus on his work for NBC Sports and his podcast, The Money Lap, which he hosts with Landon Cassill.
• This reunion could lead to more underdog wins for both the driver and the team.
