In his second full season with Rackley W.A.R. in the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Matt DiBenedetto has earned a spot in the Truck Playoffs for the first time in his career, and it’s the first appearance for the organization as well.
“It’s so rewarding for the whole team, and we are so proud to have made it (to the Playoffs),” said DiBenedetto. “Because it has taken everybody. To think this team has made the Playoffs in just its third year is so amazing. And Rackley Roofing should be so proud. They poured in so much to make this happen.”
But the California native isn’t satisfied with just making the postseason this year, he has much bigger plans.
“Us as team, I know we have grown a lot, overcome a lot and you know turned a lot of heads, especially in this latter part of this year showing our progress and our strength as a team and our consistency, but truly I believe we can make it to the Final Four,” said DiBenedetto. “I really do. I know a lot of circumstances need to fall our way, and there are a lot of fast trucks we are up against, but everybody has seen the growth and progress of our team and everything Rackley and this group has poured in and Chevrolet and how serious everyone has taken this. And I am really proud of that.”
DiBenedetto enters the 2023 CRAFTSMAN Truck Series Playoffs as the ninth seed with 2,002 points.
DiBenedetto made his series track debut at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park last season, where he started 18th and raced his way up to an 11th-place finish.
