The 2025 Fresh From Florida 250 was the 1st stock car race of the 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, and the 26th iteration of the event. The race was held on Friday, February 14, 2025, at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, a 2.5 miles (4.0 km) superspeedway. The race took the scheduled 100 laps to complete. In an action-packed race with a surprise twist, Corey Heim, driving for Tricon Garage, would survive the chaos on the final lap to earn his 12th career NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win, and his first of the season.[8] Parker Kligerman, who was originally declared as the winner, was later disqualified during post-race inspection due to a height violation, officially credited with a 36th and last place finish.[9] To fill out the podium, Gio Ruggiero, driving for Tricon Garage, and Grant Enfinger, driving for CR7 Motorsports, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.

Perspective
The first and only practice session was originally scheduled to be held on Thursday, February 13, at 5:05 PM EST, but was cancelled due to inclement weather.[12]
Qualifying was held on Friday, February 14, at 3:00 PM EST.[13] Since Daytona International Speedway is a superspeedway, the qualifying procedure used is a single-car, single-lap system with two rounds. In the first round, drivers have one lap to set a time and determine positions 11-36. The fastest ten drivers from the first round will advance to the second and final round, and whoever sets the fastest time in Round 2 will win the pole and determine the rest of the starting lineup.[14]
Ben Rhodes, driving for ThorSport Racing, would win the pole after advancing from the preliminary round and setting the fastest time in Round 2, with a lap of 50.995, and a speed of 176.488 mph (284.030 km/h).[15]
Two drivers failed to qualify: Justin Carroll and Bryan Dauzat.
