Cody Erickson is a retired American stock car racing driver who competed in the NASCAR Truck Series during the 2020 and 2021 seasons. His career on record comprised three starts across two years, all for Cram Racing Enterprises, fielding a Chevrolet Silverado. He did not record a win or podium finish and averaged a finishing position of 26th across his classified starts. His Racer Rating of 3,336 places him in a semi-professional field; his peers in the Truck Series during this period included multiple champions and professionally graded drivers operating at a considerably higher level.[1]
Erickson's competitive record against his most frequent rivals shows the gap between his capability and that of the drivers who shared the grid with him. In three shared races each against Carson Hocevar, Zane Smith, Todd Gilliland, and Austin Hill, all substantially stronger competitors, he finished behind them on every occasion. Against Sheldon Creed and Chandler Smith, also rated well above him, he managed to finish ahead only once in three meetings each. His single results against higher-calibre drivers such as Kyle Larson, Chase Briscoe, and John Hunter Nemechek represent isolated moments of competitive success rather than a pattern; these came within a small sample and did not establish a sustained head-to-head record. After two seasons of part-time competition yielding limited track time and no results, Erickson withdrew from professional racing in 2021.[2]
