TRICON Taps Kaden Honeycutt to Replace Corey Heim in No. 11 Toyota for 2026

The rising driver enters Toyota’s TD2 pipeline with veteran crew chief Scott Zipadelli.

Overview

TRICON Garage named Kaden Honeycutt to the No. 11 Safelite Toyota Tundra TRD Pro for the 2026 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season.
Honeycutt signed with Toyota GAZOO Racing and will be an official Toyota Driver Development (TD2) driver in 2026.
He will work with crew chief Scott Zipadelli, whose partnership with Corey Heim delivered 21 wins, 45 top-fives and three Championship 4 appearances over the past three seasons.
Honeycutt reached the 2025 Championship 4 and finished third in points after a mid-season move from Niece Motorsports to Halmar-Friesen Racing linked to a planned manufacturer switch.
TRICON said additional 2026 driver and crew chief announcements are forthcoming, and Heim’s next destination has not been disclosed.
