NASCAR on Monday revealed the schedule for this season’s Triple Truck Challenge in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, the popular series of races that launched in 2019 as a chance for drivers to win bonus money as they competed for checkered flags at select events.

The 2022 Triple Truck Challenge will start at 1:30 p.m. ET on June 4 at World Wide Technology Raceway (FS1, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) in Madison, Illinois, just outside St. Louis, before continuing at 8 p.m. ET on June 24 at Nashville Superspeedway (FS1, MRN, SiriusXM). “The Trip,” as it is affectionately known, will close out its 2022 run at 1:30 p.m. ET on July 9 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course (FS1, MRN, SiriusXM).

“A very cool program and a lot of money on the line for our guys,” said Camping World Truck Series director Seth Kramlich. “It’s a big incentive for our trucks and a lot of money on the line for those guys to be able to move their programs and step them into a greater place for the future.”

The Triple Truck Challenge is open to drivers who declare to earn Truck Series points during the 2022 season, and prize money can multiply if a driver wins multiple races — or all three races — in the Triple Truck Challenge.

Last year, the Triple Truck Challenge took place at Darlington Raceway, Circuit of The Americas and Charlotte Motor Speedway. Sheldon Creed, Todd Gilliland and John Hunter Nemechek took home the top prizes in those races.
