Greg Biffle was the first driver to claim both championships. He won the 2000 Nascar Craftsman Truck Series and the 2002 Nascar Busch Series. The series sponsorship names have now changed.
The record is held by Tommy Houston. He started the first 360 races in the divisions history.

The first female driver was Sara Christian, racing in the inaugural NASCAR race at Charlotte Speedway on June 19, 1949.
Jimmie Johnson won the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Championship, the first driver to win 4 consecutive NASCAR titles.
