Rajah Caruth is fighting for a spot in the Chase. With six races left in the 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Series regular season, Caruth sits nine points below the Chase bubble in 14th place. Caruth has been splitting time between JR Motorsports and Jordan Anderson Racing during the 2026 campaign.
The driver of the No. 88 car only has one top-5 finish during the 2026 NASCAR season, but that might not be good enough to earn a spot in the Chase. After all, there have been several finishes below 20th place, and the Joe Gibbs Racing drivers on the bubble have been fast all year.

If Caruth wants to make the Chase, he will likely have to beat out Sam Mayer, William Sawalich, and Brent Crews over the next six races. Caruth has the talent to make the Chase, but he will have to find some more speed to make that happen in 2026.
