Out of the three most dominant drivers in all three NASCAR series, only Corey Heim managed to conquer the Playoff format. The 23-year-old has been on an upward trajectory since his Truck Series debut, and his star is only growing. In his first full-time season, he finished 4th in the championship with three wins under his belt. All of this came after he clinched a maiden win in 2022 with Kyle Busch Motorsports.

A year later, he bumped up his tally to 9 wins during the season and a grand total of 11. That same year, he finished as the runner-up to Ty Majeski, but 2025 was when all the puzzle pieces fell into place. He went on an absolute tear, winning 12 races, including the season finale at the Phoenix Raceway, to clinch the title.
