Front Row Motorsports Confirms 2026 Championship Lineup
Front Row Motorsports is set to retain both of its championship contenders for the 2026 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season. Layne Riggs will continue driving the No. 34 Ford F-150 under a multi-year agreement, while Chandler Smith will return to the No. 38 Ford for his second season with the team.
Smith joined Front Row Motorsports late in the previous offseason and achieved notable success, securing victories at Bristol Motorspeedway and North Wilkesboro Speedway, along with 16 top-10 finishes out of 25 races, culminating in an eighth-place finish in the championship standings.
Expressing his enthusiasm for the upcoming season, Smith highlighted the team's remarkable achievements despite initial expectations. The No. 38 team will remain unchanged, with Jon Leonard returning as crew chief for his seventh season, bringing valuable experience from previous roles in both the Truck Series and Cup Series.
