Toni Breidinger leaves Tricon in new NASCAR Truck deal

Toni Breidinger has left Tricon and the No. 5 Toyota to join forces with Rackley W.A.R. and Team Chevy for the upcoming NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season.

Breidinger, 26, will pilot the No. 27 Chevrolet Silverado in eight races as a teammate to Dawson Sutton. Those starts will come at Daytona, Texas, Dover, Nashville, North Wilkesboro, IRP, New Hampshire, and Talladega.

Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS and Sunoco will back the effort.

“I’m incredibly excited to join Rackley WAR and compete in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series again in 2026,” said Breidinger. “This schedule includes some of the biggest races on the calendar, and I’m proud to represent partners like Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS and Sunoco. I’m ready to get to work and make the most of every opportunity.”

She continued: “I’m looking forward to starting this next chapter with the Team Chevy family. Chevrolet’s passion for motorsports and commitment to performance is unrivaled. With their support of Rackley WAR’s growing program, I’m confident they are going to provide me with the resources to compete for wins.”

Breidinger competed full-time with Tricon last year, ending the season 23rd in the championship standings (last among drivers who started every race). It was a difficult rookie season with a high result of 18th at Rockingham. Her best career finish in the Truck Series actually came in her debut race in 2023, placing 15th at Kansas.

Along with 27 NCTS starts, Breidinger also has 65 career starts as an ARCA driver with four top fives and 27 top tens. She finished as high as third at Kansas in 2023, and even placed fourth in the 2024 championship standings.

“Toni is a unique talent. She brings visibility and professionalism everywhere she goes,” said Willie Allen, COO of Rackley WAR. “We’re proud to welcome her to the Rackley WAR family and put her in our No. 27 Chevrolet. With the support from Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS, and Sunoco, we’re confident in this program’s future, starting at Daytona in February.”
