Chandler Smith Notes

Chandler Smith is back in action this Friday night as the Truck Series heads to the Nashville Superspeedway. Following last week’s race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, Smith is still second in the Truck Series Driver Championship points standings. Through the first 11 races of the season, Smith has earned two wins, four top-five, and seven top-10 finishes.

Wheelers will join Smith and the No. 38 team for the 200-mile race. For over seven decades, Wheelers has been the backbone of homes in the Southeast as the go-to source for wood trusses, delivering exactly what you need when you need it. Wheelers was built by builders for builders. “Papa Tom” Manis established the family’s roots in the industry as a saw-miller back in the 1920s. His son, Wheeler Manis, opened Rome Builders Supply in 1949 and expanded the business throughout the Southeast. Four generations later, Wheelers is still owned and operated by the same family and driven by the same dedication to craft that started it all. For more information on Wheelers, please visit www.wheelers.com.

“Last week was disappointing, but it just adds another chip to our shoulder heading into this weekend,” said Smith. “Front Row Motorsports has been building fast trucks all season, so I’m confident heading into the race knowing we have the trucks to compete, it’s just a matter of staying out of trouble and executing.”
