Truck Series

With a little bit of luck and maybe if Austin Hill had run out of gas, Ross Chastain would have been an upset tonight for the small funded Niece Motorsports team at Daytona International Speedway.

After all the carnage tonight at Daytona International Speedway, even after getting caught up late in an accident, Matt Crafton found himself with a shot to snap his long winless streak in the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series.

Coming from two laps down, Grant Enfinger almost found himself in contention to win the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series NextEra Energy 250 at Daytona International Speedway Friday night.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The defending NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series championship team returned and won their third consecutive race, but this time they had a new man behind the wheel of their hot rod.

The Truck Series finally gets back on track this Friday night for the first race of the 2019 season. And with the series getting on track, it'll be the 20th time, every year since 2000, when the first race at Daytona features the Trucks.

Chastain on Racing at Daytona: “I’m excited to get this season started,” said Chastain. “This is going to be a great year, and I’m looking forward to Friday’s race with this Niece Motorsports group. I know that they’ve been working really hard this off season to get everything ready for 2019, so I know Phil and the team will have a strong truck on Friday.”

One of the feel-good stories from the 2018 NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series (NGOTS) Daytona season-opener will have another opportunity to shine again as Clay Greenfield (@ClayGreenfield) and his Clay Greenfield Motorsports (CGM) team will compete in Friday night’s NextEra Energy Resources 250.

Timothy Peters on Racing at Daytona: “I’m really looking forward to kicking off the 2019 season this Friday in the Friends of Jaclyn Silverado,” said Peters. “Everyone at Niece Motorsports has worked hard and I can’t wait to hit the race track! I enjoy superspeedway racing and winning at Daytona in the past always helps with momentum going back.”

After an aggressive offseason of building race trucks and preparing for their first race of the 2019 NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series (NGOTS) season, Friday night’s NextEra Energy Resources 250 provides an opportunity for CFR to strut their stuff at the historic Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway.

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, the NASCAR Xfinity Series and the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series head to Daytona International Speedway this weekend to kick off the 2019 season.
