BRISTOL, Tenn. — Corey Heim continues to prove he’s one of the most dangerous drivers in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series — and Bristol Motor Speedway sets up as another opportunity to show it.
Despite not competing full-time in the Truck Series this season, Heim enters the weekend as a legitimate contender based on both recent momentum and an impressive track record.
In six career starts at Bristol Motor Speedway, Heim has delivered one win, four top-five finishes and a perfect six top-10s, along with 209 laps led and a remarkable 4.2 average finish. Those numbers place him among the most consistent performers at the track, especially considering the sample size.
Running inside the top 10 in every start highlights not just speed, but the ability to stay out of trouble at one of the most chaotic venues on the schedule.
Heim’s driving style translates well to Bristol’s tight, high-contact environment. His ability to manage traffic, maintain track position and execute over long runs has made him a constant presence near the front whenever he takes the green flag there.
Momentum is also on his side. Heim is coming off a victory at Rockingham, reinforcing his current form and confidence heading into the weekend. That win showcased his ability to control a race and close it out — a skill that becomes even more valuable at a track like Bristol.
Even without a full-time schedule, Heim’s performance level hasn’t dropped. If anything, it’s made each start more impactful, with strong results continuing to follow.
As the Truck Series heads into Bristol, Heim stands out as a driver who doesn’t need a full season to make noise. When he shows up, he’s a threat — and the numbers at Bristol make that clear.
