Niece Motorsports Signs Landen Lewis as 2026 Part-Time Anchor Driver in Truck Series

The 19-year-old zMAX CARS Tour champion enters Niece’s driver-development pipeline with backing from Kevin Harvick plus Ron Hornaday.

Overview

  • He is the first confirmed driver in Niece’s 2026 lineup, designated as the anchor for a part-time Truck entry.
  • The team says his event schedule, truck number, sponsors, and crew will be announced later, with the season opening at Daytona on Feb. 13, 2026.
  • Lewis captured the 2025 zMAX CARS Tour Late Model Stock title with four wins at Ace, North Wilkesboro, Anderson, and Florence.
  • He brings limited national-series experience that includes three Truck starts since 2023 and a 2021 ARCA victory at DuQuoin.
  • Niece cast the move as part of its young-talent pathway that has propelled drivers like Ross Chastain and Carson Hocevar, as Harvick plus Hornaday publicly praised Lewis’s work ethic.
