The 2024 Toyota 200 presented by CK Power was the 12th stock car race of the 2024 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, and the 11th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, June 1, 2024, in Madison, Illinois at World Wide Technology Raceway, a 1.25 miles (2.01 km) permanent asphalt quad-oval shaped speedway. The race took the scheduled 160 laps to complete. Corey Heim, driving for Tricon Garage, continues to show his dominance in the Truck Series, and led the final 65 laps of the race to earn his ninth career NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win, and his fourth of the season.[8] Heim would also claim the $50,000 bonus prize after winning the second Triple Truck Challenge race. Pole-sitter Ty Majeski won both stages and led 43 laps, but fell back in the final stage to finish 4th.[9] To fill out the podium, Christian Eckes, driving for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing, and Nick Sanchez, driving for Rev Racing, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.

Qualifying
[edit]Qualifying was held on Friday, May 31, at 5:35 PM EST.[10] Since World Wide Technology Raceway is a 1.25 miles (2.01 km) oval, the qualifying system used is a single-car, one-lap system with only one round. Drivers will be on track by themselves and will have one lap to post a qualifying time. Whoever sets the fastest time in that round will win the pole.[12]
Ty Majeski, driving for ThorSport Racing, would score the pole for the race, with a lap of 32.475, and a speed of 138.568 mph (223.004 km/h).[13]
No drivers would fail to qualify.
