NASCAR may be returning to Rockingham Speedway, but there will be no repeat winners this year. At least not in trucks. Kasey Kahne and Kyle Larson won the only two Truck Series races held at the track in 2012 and 2013, but while Kahne is competing in the Xfinity Series race on Saturday, neither is entered in Friday night’s Truck Series race. That leaves Truck Series season points leader Corey Heim the favorite to win the Black’s Tire 200, according to BetMGM’s odds.

The all-new 2026 Subaru Outback unveiled at the New York International Auto Show is the largest version of the iconic model ever made. The seventh generation Outback has strayed very far from its roots as a lifted station wagon and features a boxier design than the outgoing edition. Powertrain options carry over with 180 hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder and 260 hp turbochargted four-cylinder offerings across the lineup, both matched to continuously variable automatic transmissions.

They stole the show. Subaru and the Hyundai Motor Group brands of Hyundai, Kia and Genesis were the only automakers to debut new models during media day at the 2025 New York International Auto Show, which is celebrating its 125th anniversary this year. The major U.S. autos shows have become less important as venues for new vehicle reveals of late, as car companies have shifted toward digital media and standalone events.
