CONCORD, N.C. — Second-generation racer and pavement late-model standout Layne Riggs has been given the nod to wheel Spire Motorsports No. 7 Chevrolet Silverado for the August 11 TSport 200 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.
Infinity Communications Group will serve as the team’s primary sponsor at the .686-mile track.
The reigning NASCAR Weekly Series champion, riggs also owns four CARS Tour triumphs.
“I couldn’t be more excited to partner with Infinity Communications and Spire Motorsports to go short-track racing in Indianapolis,” said Riggs. “I made my NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series debut last season at the same track and we were able to put together a really solid seventh-place finish. I have a ton of short track experience and having Bono Manion calling the race from the top of the box puts us in a good spot to have great race.”
Riggs, the son of Scott Riggs, a five-time NCTS and four-time NASCAR Xfinity Series race winner, will make his sixth career, and third NCTS start of the season.
