The 2025 SpeedyCash.com 250 was the 8th stock car race of the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, and the 27th iteration of the event. The race was held on Friday, May 2, 2025, at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas, a permanent asphalt quad-oval shaped intermediate speedway. The race was originally scheduled to be contested over 167 laps, but was increased to 174 due to an overtime finish.
In a wreck-filled race with a dramatic double-overtime battle for the win, Corey Heim, driving for Tricon Garage, would survive a three-wide challenge for the lead from Daniel Hemric and Ben Rhodes, and held off the field to earn his 14th career NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win, and his third of the season. Heim was also the most dominant driver of the race, winning the second stage and leading a race-high 96 laps. To fill out the podium, Hemric, driving for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing, and Rajah Caruth, driving for Spire Motorsports, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
