The 2025 NASCAR Truck Series season heads to the Texas Motor Speedway for the season’s eighth race, the SpeedyCash.com 250. Ahead of the race, NASCAR insider Bob Pockrass shared his predictions, picking his favorite to win the 2025 Truck Series SpeedyCash.com 250. Additionally, he also predicted the top five finishers.
Pockrass picked Spire Motorsports driver Carson Hocevar to take the checkered flag at Texas Motor Speedway on Friday, May 2. Hocevar is a full-time NASCAR Cup Series driver who is competing with Spire Motorsports in the series and is making his first start in the Truck Series.
Rounding out Pockrass’ top-five predictions were Corey Heim, Daniel Hemric, Nick Sanchez, and Brandon Jones.
Pockrass wrote on X:
“Truck pick for tonight at Texas: Carson Hocevar … top-5: Hocevar Heim Hemric Sanchez Jones ET 2:35-Truck p&q 5:05-CW App-Xfinity p&q 8-FS1-Prerace 8:22-FS1-Truck green 40-40-87, 4set”
Carson Hocevar has tasted success at Texas Motor Speedway, securing a win, a top-five finish, and an 11th place finish in three starts in the Truck Series. Coming to his 2025 Cup Series performance, he has had a mediocre campaign with only one top-five and two top-10 finishes in 10 races so far.
