RALEIGH, N.C., April 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- After years of
dominating his home track in the Tidewater region of Virginia, rising Late Model Stock Car
star, Brenden "Butterbean" Queen, took a runner-up points
finish in his CARS Tour rookie season. LeithCars.com has been
riding with Queen for much of his grassroots racing journey,
including the biggest win of his career so far, his 2023 CARS Tour
victory at historic North Wilkesboro Speedway.
Queen's achievements on the track have now earned him a shot at
the big time. On May 18, he'll be
driving the No. 1 BRC / LeithCars.com Toyota Tundra in the NASCAR
Craftsman Truck Series race at the same legendary track where he
rode the Victory Lane lift in his Late Model last summer.
"This is a huge opportunity that I've been working on since I
was six years old," said Brenden
Queen, prior to the first CARS Tour race of the 2024 season
at Southern National. "I'll be making my upper series debut,
a huge thanks to Tricon Garage, Toyota Racing, BRC and
LeithCars.com for making that happen. We're looking forward to a
good race at North Wilkesboro, and
maybe I'll get to ride that lift again."
"It's been an exciting journey for all of us at LeithCars.com as
we've been in support of Brenden since his years of winning track
championships at Langley Speedway in Virginia," said Mark
Arsen with LeithCars.com. "Brenden's jump to NASCAR for the
truck race at Wilkesboro is a
natural progression for a young driver with loads of talent and
personality to match."
Look for the white, red and black No. 1 Toyota Tundra with Queen
behind the wheel when the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series goes green
at North Wilkesboro Speedway next month.
