#38-Chandler Smith charged from sixth coming off of turn three to win the season-opening Fresh from Florida 250 NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race at Daytona International Speedway Friday night. The win is his first at Daytona and the eighth win of his career.
Following an overtime restart, the final laps were dicey to say the least. #62-John Hunter Nemechek, #17-Gio Ruggiero, and #91-Christian Eckes exchanged paint as they rode three-wide coming off of turn 4. Ford drivers #38-Smith and #88-Ty Majeski teamed up and made it four-wide to push forward at the line.
#17-Ruggiero finished second, followed by #91-Eckes, pole-sitter #88-Majeski, #62-Nemechek, #45-Ricky Stenhouse, Jr., #12-Brenden Queen, #11-Kaden Honeycutt, #18-Tyler Ankrum, and #52-Stewart Friesen in the top-10.
#77-Carson Hocevar won stage 1 but struggled late in the race with a few cut tires and spins. He finished the night 35th.
Race winner Smith won stage two under caution following a wreck involving #98-Jake Garcia and #25-Tony Stewart. Stewart was making his NASCAR return after a 10-year absence as he ushered in RAM’s return. He ended the race 36th.
There were 32 lead changes among 12 drivers and six caution flags for 31 yellow flag laps.
The average speed of the race was: 121.429 mph.
