Corey Heim

Corey Heim was born on July 5, 2002, in Georgia, USA, and was counted among the greatest talents in American grassroots motorsport from an early age. By the age of five, he was already competing in Quarter Midgets and local go-karts before moving to Legends Cars. There he claimed the title in the Young Lions Division in 2016 and won the championship in the Thursday Thunder Pro Division at Atlanta Motor Speedway in 2017. These early successes laid the foundation for his continued rise in American motorsport.

Via the Late-Model scene, including the CARS Tour, Southern Super Series, and Pro All-Stars Series, Heim’s path led him to the ARCA Menards Series in 2019, where he debuted for Chad Bryant Racing. In 2020, he switched to Venturini Motorsports before joining the team as a full-time driver in 2021. In a thrilling season with six wins, he battled for the championship with Ty Gibbs and finished the season as runner-up. In 2022, he made the jump to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, where he was immediately named Rookie of the Year.

Heim celebrated the greatest successes of his career in the Truck Series for Tricon Garage: in 2023, he secured the Regular Season Championship, and in 2025, he crowned himself series champion with twelve season wins, setting a new record. Overall, he has now accumulated more than 25 Truck Series wins and was the youngest driver at 22 years and seven days to reach the ten-win milestone. In the NASCAR Cup Series, too, he turned heads as a development driver for 23XI Racing, winning the Anduril 250 and the Brickyard 400 in 2026, making him the fastest driver in the modern NASCAR era to reach two Cup wins in just 15 starts.

In the 2026 season, Corey Heim continues as a full-time driver for 23XI Racing, piloting the No. 67 Toyota Camry XSE in the NASCAR Cup Series, while simultaneously being developed as a development driver for the team and competing in additional Truck Series races for Tricon Garage. Following his championship victory in 2025 and his first Cup wins, he is considered one of the rising stars in American motorsport, with the goal of establishing himself permanently in the top NASCAR series.
