Cam Waters is a name not well-known in the NASCAR world as he has just three starts in the Truck Series and one in Cup. However, as a two-time Supercars championship runner-up with 18 race wins, he's certainly no stranger to Australian racing fans.
He competes with Tickford Racing in Supercars, currently sitting fourth in the 2025 standings, but this weekend, he traded his Mustang for a ThorSport-prepared Ford F-150.
In Waters' two previous NASCAR Truck starts, he raced on oval tracks and faced some setbacks. But at Lime Rock, he was far more comfortable due to his road racing experience. He started 16th and ran around there for the majority of the race. But Waters did well to stay out of trouble and when chaos ensued on the final restart, he was in the right position to make it through without a scratch.
Waters was running just outside the top ten when Jordan Taylor and several others went spinning with six laps to go, but as the smoke cleared, he found himself inside the top five. Waters held on to finish fifth, putting three ThorSport trucks in the top five.
“I had a really fast truck to be able to do that, and then everyone ran off in front of me," said Waters in a post-race interview with MRN Radio. "I was pretty happy when they were all running off. It’s something I want to do more of, come and do more racing. To be able to come over here and race a Lime Rock was awesome.
"I was stoked to be able to do it. I did a few races over here last year and had a little bit of bad luck, so I’m happy to put that bad luck aside and jag a result.”
Next weekend, reigning Supercars champion Will Brown will run the Cup race on the streets of Chicago with Kaulig Racing while Supercars veteran Jack Perkins runs the Xfinity race with Joe Gibbs Racing. There, they will reunite with three-time Supercars champion Shane van Gisbergen, who now competes full-time in the Cup Series and will be competing in both races during the Chicago weekend.
