Layne Riggs Earns Second Win of 2025 in Dominant Performance at IRP
The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series journey for Layne Riggs began here, at Indianapolis Raceway Park, three years ago for Layne Riggs. Now, the native of Bahama, North Carolina, is a frequent visitor to Victory Lane in the series.
Riggs parked his No. 34 CLEW Nicotine Pouches Ford F-150 in Victory Lane in Friday’s TSPORT 200 at Indianapolis Raceway Park, after putting on a dominating performance around the 0.686-mile short track, leading 160 of 200 laps.
It’s the second victory of the season for Riggs, and the third straight win on a track measuring less than one mile in length for Front Row Motorsports, which won at North Wilkesboro and Bristol earlier this season with Chandler Smith.
