# 2024 Baptist Health 200

The 2024 Baptist Health 200 was the 21st stock car race of the 2024 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, the fifth race of the Playoffs, the second race of the Round of 8, and the 28th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, October 26, 2024, at Homestead–Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida, a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) permanent oval shaped racetrack. The race took the scheduled 134 laps to complete. In a fast-paced race, Grant Enfinger, driving for CR7 Motorsports, would take the lead late from Layne Riggs, and dominated the final stages of the race on fuel mileage to earn his 12th career NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win, his second of the season, and his second consecutive win. Corey Heim started on the pole and led a race-high 68 laps, but was unable to catch Enfinger on his pit road strategy and finished 4th. To fill out the podium, Ty Majeski, driving for ThorSport Racing, and Connor Mosack, driving for Spire Motorsports, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
