The 2024 Kubota Tractor 200 was the 19th stock car race of the 2024 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, the final race of the Round of 12, and the third iteration of the event. The race was held on Friday, September 27, 2024, at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas, a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) permanent quad-oval shaped racetrack. The race took the scheduled 134 laps to complete. In a close race with a wild finish, Corey Heim, driving for Tricon Garage, would steal the win on the final lap after Ty Majeski ran out of fuel while leading. Heim dominated the race in general, starting from the rear, winning the second stage, and leading a race-high 64 laps to earn his 11th career NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win, and his sixth of the season.^[9] To fill out the podium, Layne Riggs, driving for Front Row Motorsports, and Christian Eckes, driving for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.

Following the race, Ben Rhodes and Daniel Dye were eliminated from playoff contention. Heim, Eckes, Majeski, Nick Sanchez, Rajah Caruth, Grant Enfinger, Tyler Ankrum, and Taylor Gray would advance into the Round of 8.^[10]
