NASCAR Truck Series

For Ridgefield, Connecticut native Anthony Alfredo, Feb. 23, 2019, will be forever remembered as the culmination of a dream. That date is when the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series takes to the track at Atlanta Motor Speedway for the Atlanta 200. Alfredo will make his first start in a NASCAR national series competition, racing a Toyota for top tier team DGR-Crosley.

The Truck Series returned to Daytona International Speedway this past weekend for its annual running of the NextEra Energy Resources 250. As usual, the action didn't disappoint and it was quite possibly, the best race of the whole week.

The NASCAR Gander Outdoor Truck Series returned to action at the famous Daytona International Speedway this past Friday night for its 24th year in the running since their inception in 1995.

Chastain Post-Race: “I really enjoyed our No.45 TrüNorth™/Paul Jr. Designs Chevrolet,” said Chastain. “It was great to have a new sponsor aboard for this race and the 2019 season. I’m excited to see what we can do for the rest of the races with our strong finish in Daytona.”

Peters Post-Race: “I’m very thankful to have this opportunity to race the No.44 Niece Motorsports Chevrolet sponsored by Friends of Jaclyn,” said Peters. “We had a great truck tonight, missed some wrecks, but sadly got involved in one towards the end. I’m looking forward, with our momentum, towards Atlanta Motor Speedway.”

Imagine what Hill can accomplish this season with such an established team. If he can win at Daytona, then it isn't a matter of if he can win again in the No. 16, but when.

The action never disappoints at Daytona International Speedway and never disappoints for the Truck Series either. After a record high 11 caution flags, two overtimes, the longest Truck Series race ever at Daytona and several big ones, Austin Hill comes out on top with his first career win in the series after 52 starts.

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.
