Pickup truck racing events in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series have been held at the Rockingham Speedway in Rockingham, North Carolina in 2012 and 2013, and is scheduled to return to the track in 2025.

## History

On September 2, 2011, NASCAR announced that Rockingham Speedway would hold a Camping World Truck Series event for the 2012 season. During the inaugural race, Nelson Piquet Jr. started on the pole position and Kasey Kahne won the race.
In 2013, the race went for 205 laps instead of 200 laps because of green-white-checkered rules. The rookie Kyle Larson won his first truck series win in his first year but the race became notable because of controversy. Truck series veteran Ron Hornaday Jr. got contact with Kyle Busch Motorsports driver; the rookie Darrell Wallace Jr. In a similar fashion to an incident with Kyle Busch at Texas two years prior in the WinStar World Casino 350K. Hornaday tapped Wallace sending him into the fences. Ron Hornaday took responsibility and apologized but claimed that he did not intend to wreck Wallace; NASCAR, the media and fans felt differently when they saw a video that showed Hornaday frowning towards Wallace's truck before the tap. NASCAR black-flagged Hornaday and sent him to the back of the field on the restart, later fined him $25,000 and put him on probation until June 12. The penalties were also controversial because the fans, drivers, and medias wanted Hornaday's penalties harsher since Kyle Busch was parked after the Texas incident.
In 2014, the Truck Series did not return to the track due to financial struggles.
Track Enterprises, a short track promoter that promotes numerous regional races owned by Spire Sports and Entertainment, and promotes ARCA races at the Illinois State Fairgrounds Racetrack, DuQuoin State Fairgrounds Racetrack, The Milwaukee Mile, Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway, and the Champion Racing Association, was unable to agree with the Wisconsin State Fair to host a race in Milwaukee after hosting in 2023 and 2024. Promoters moved the race to Rockingham in an announcement made August 29, 2024. It will be held during the only 2025 NASCAR Cup Series' off-week for Easter.
