Jamie Little Announces She Will No Longer Do Play-By-Play For ARCA And The NASCAR FedEx Freight Truck Series In 2027

November 11, 2026  ·

Ahead of the 2026 NASCAR Awards Ceremony, NASCAR Cup Series Pit Reporter Jamie Little announced she would no longer provide play-by-play calls for the ARCA and NASCAR FedEx Freight Truck Series in 2027.

Little made the announcement on social media. She wrote, “Starting next season, my focus will be on the NASCAR Cup Series pit road and select IndyCar races. My kids are still young and deserve more of my time.”

“Thank you to everyone who has watched and supported my journey as a play-by-play voice for ARCA and the Truck Series the last six years. It’s been quite a ride and one I’ll always be thankful to have experienced. A special ‘Thank You’ to Fox for always giving me opportunities.”

Little has covered NASCAR since 2007. She began at ESPN and ABC as a pit reporter and remained there until 2014. She then moved to FOX Sports and continued her work as a pit reporter in 2015.

In 2021 she called her first ARCA race in the booth at Daytona for the 2021 Lucas Oil 200.

She called her first Truck Series race in the booth in 2022 at Knoxville Raceway and began sharing duties with Adam Alexander in 2023 and 2024. She became the primary play-by-play voice in 2025. In 2026 the duties rotated among Little, Eric Brennan, and Brent Stover, with a changing cast of analysts that included Kevin Harvick, Joey Logano, Michael Waltrip, Townsend Bell, Todd Bodine, Phil Parsons, Regan Smith, and others.

The 2026 rotation reflected the demands of her broader schedule. Little continued her regular Cup Series pit-reporting duties and also worked select IndyCar races for Fox. Brennan and Stover, both of whom already had ARCA experience, filled in on the races she missed.

Little’s decision reduces her travel and booth commitments while keeping her in the roles she has long handled on the Cup Series and in IndyCar. She will remain a regular presence on Fox’s Cup Series pit road and will continue select IndyCar assignments. The move ends her six-year run calling ARCA and Truck Series races but does not remove her from Fox’s NASCAR coverage.

Fox has not yet named a permanent successor for the Truck Series and ARCA play-by-play jobs. Brennan and Stover, both of whom called multiple races in 2026 and drew positive notices from viewers, are widely viewed as the leading candidates. The network will need to settle the lineup for roughly 45 combined races next season.
