SuperTruck Series by Craftsman
Racing Series

A national series of NASCAR pickup truck racing. The name "SuperTruck Series by Craftsman" would last for one year (1995) until it was replaced by Craftsman Truck Series for the 2006 season. The series is now the Camping World Truck Series.

Four off-road racers are credited with the idea of NASCAR's pickup truck racing series.

The creation of the SuperTruck Series by Craftsman was announed in May of 1994 in Sonoma, California and first race was a demonstration race in July 1994 in Bakersfield, California.
