Corey Heim seizes historic first win for No. 67 at Naval Base Coronado
In his thirteenth Cup start, Heim carried the 67 Toyota to victory, outlasting teammate Tyler Reddick in a contest that concluded with Heim holding the checkered flag.
First appearance: a single racing brush in 1950
Joe Harrison debuted the number on February 5, 1950 at the Daytona Beach road course, starting 31st and finishing 40th after only three laps.
Early near wins and long wait for triumph
Jim Fiebelkorn broke ground with a seventh‑place finish in 1951 at Langhorne dirt track, while Jim Reed led 58 laps for a second-place showing at Thompson half-mile that same year, just a lap behind Neil Cole. David Pearson used the number in 1960, earning a pole at Gamecock Speedway and a second-place finish to Ned Jarrett – Pearson’s lone pole for the car.
These runner‑up performances persisted through the decades until June 21, 2026, when Heim’s Cup win eclipsed both 1951 and 1960 achievements.
Statistical overview: 650 starts, 154 laps led, 1 pole, 1 win
Over its history, the 67 has entered 650 races, booked 154 laps at the front, collected 24 top‑five results, 114 top‑tens, and claimed a single pole position before Heim’s triumph.
Heim’s victory also marks the first top‑five finish for the number since Buddy Arrington’s third place at Talladega in 1979.
Two decades of absence, then renaissance in 2023‑24
After Boris Said’s last appearance in 2002, the 67 vanished from the Cup grid until 23XI Racing revived it part‑time in 2023, fielding Travis Pastrana, Kamui Kobayashi, and Heim.
With a full‑time schedule ahead, Heim is set to continue the number’s resurgence, although co‑owner Denny Hamlin showed some uncertainty about his future plans.
Possible future under a new number
Should Hamlin opt to steer the 35, the 67 may find another driver and storyline, echoing the 35’s own history of first‑time victories awaiting the right moment.
For the 67, Heim’s win signals it is time to add a second chapter
