Kaden Honeycutt completed sweep of Friday's races at Watkins Glen with victory in Bully Hill Vineyards 176 at The Glen.

Kaden Honeycutt didn't exactly have road-course racing at the top of his list of strengths. After winning the ARCA Menards Series race earlier in the day at Watkins Glen International, he was asked if he considered himself a road-course driver. His response was blunt: "Heck no. Absolutely not."

But his performance on the track told a completely different story. In the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Bully Hill Vineyards 176 at The Glen, Honeycutt pulled off a stunning overtime pass on Connor Zilisch to claim his first career Truck Series victory. The win, which came just hours after his ARCA triumph, completed an unforgettable sweep of Friday's races at the iconic New York road course.

Driving the No. 11 Safelite + Foster Love Toyota for TRICON Garage, Honeycutt not only secured the checkered flag but also extended his series points lead. The overtime restart proved to be the decisive moment, as Honeycutt's aggressive yet calculated move on Zilisch sealed the deal and sent his crew into a frenzy of celebration.

For a driver who downplayed his road-course prowess, Honeycutt's double-header dominance at The Glen is a testament to his versatility and grit. Whether he admits it or not, he's proving he can win anywhere—on any track, in any series.
