Kyle Busch NASCAR switch confirmed as Bristol entry list released

Two-time Cup Series champion Kyle Busch is one of several drivers from NASCAR's top division to be making a series switch at Bristol Motor Speedway this weekend.

After the Cup Series paused for a break over the Easter weekend, all three national NASCAR series are in action this time around, and it all kicks off with the Truck Series on Friday night.

NASCAR has confirmed a 38-truck preliminary entry list for the Tennessee Army National Guard 250, with Busch set to drive the No. 7 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet for the second time this season after winning at Atlanta in February.

He will be one of five full-time Cup Series stars competing in trucks at Bristol, with Ross Chastain, Christopher Bell, Daniel Suarez and Carson Hocevar also taking part in this weekend's action.

Reigning Truck Series champion and points leader (despite only racing part-time), and part-time Cup driver Corey Heim, is also racing on Friday, piloting the No. 1 Toyota for TRICON Garage.
