The Meritor ChampTruck World Series will run the sixth race of its inaugural season this weekend at Virginia International Raceway.

Competitors will face off Aug. 6-8 at the track. There will be heat races throughout the day Friday, Aug. 7, followed by a few more heats and the points-earning Podium Race Saturday.

In the series’ previous race, Allen Boles won the weekend’s points-earning Podium Race in his No. 3 Peterbilt 359-based racer.

ChampTruck races field roughly a dozen Class 8 trucks that race in several heats and a main event to determine both a weekend points champion and earn points for the season championship.

Admission is $10 for adults for a one-day pass, or $20 for a two-day pass, and children under 15 get in free for both races. Click here to learn more about attending.
