Toni Breidinger will race in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck series in 2025, driving the No. 5 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro for TRICON Garage.
Breidlinger will race with sponsorship from long-time partners Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS and Sunoco, alongside Corey Heim and Tanner Gray. Her move to the Truck series full-time comes after she made four starts in the series over the last two seasons. She took 15th in her first start at Kansas in 2023, in what was the best debut performance for a female driver in the NASCAR Truck series.

“Racing full-time with TRICON is a dream for me,” said Breidinger. “It’s been a 15 year process to get here, but I’m so excited for this moment and ready to capitalize on it.
“I wouldn’t have this opportunity if it wasn’t for Toyota, Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS, and Sunoco. I’m beyond grateful to have these partners and team in my corner to take this next step in my career.”
The San Francisco native moves to Trucks with 65 starts in the ARCA Menards Series under her belt. She finished fourth in the 2024 standings with 11 top 10s and a best result of sixth – which she achieved twice – for Venturini Motorsports. Between 2018 and 2024, Breidinger achieved four top-five finishes and a further 23 top-10 results, including 10th on her debut at Toledo Speedway, in the ARCA Menards Series.
Before racing in Trucks, Breidinger was recognized at the Drive for Diversity Awards in 2021 with the Developmental Series Driver Award as the first Arab-American woman to compete in a NASCAR-sanctioned event.
