NASCAR Truck Series

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series and Camping World Truck Series will be in action at Texas Motor Speedway. The Monster Energy Series and Xfinity Series head into their second races of the Round of 8 in the NASCAR Playoffs, while the Camping World Truck Series enters the second race in the Round of 6.

Gilliland was just a half lap away from taking home his first ever truck series victory at Texas Motor Speedway. Unfortunately, fuel issues with his truck on the backstretch denied him his first win and relegated him to a fourth-place finish at Texas Motor Speedway Friday night.

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series continues their Round of 6 playoff run in the Lone Star State in Fort Worth, Texas for the annual running of the Jags Metals 350. Three spots are still up for grabs in the Championship 4 and five drivers have just two more chances.

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Round of 6 began this past weekend at Martinsville Speedway in Southern Virginia. Six drivers are still fighting for a shot at the championship and only four spots are up for grabs. One of those spots has already been taken by a former champion.

On the heels of a successful partial season in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards which included four top-10 finishes, Codie Rohrbaugh and his Grant County Mulch Racing (GCMR) team turn their concentration towards the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) and Friday night’s JAG Metals 350.

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) will head to Texas Motor Speedway (Fort Worth, Texas) this weekend with three races remaining in the 2018 season. DGR-Crosley will field two trucks in the JAG Metals 350 for team owners, David Gilliland and Bo LeMastus. Gilliland will pilot the No. 17 Toyota Tundra, while LeMastus will be back behind the wheel of the No. 54 Crosley Brands Toyota.

Fontaine on Racing at Texas: “I like Texas,” said Fontaine. “Even though the pavement is still relatively new, and the groove isn’t very wide, the Truck Series puts on a good show and I don’t expect any different on Friday night.

Self on Racing at Texas: “I always look forward to coming back to Texas,” said Self. “The race will be action packed and I’m really upbeat about the strength of my Niece Motorsports team right now. Whether it’s a short track, a speedway or a superspeedway, we seem to have a lot of momentum and that’s a good trait to have heading to one of my favorite places of the season.”

Chastain on Racing at Texas: “I’m excited to get to Texas,” said Chastain. “This is obviously an extremely special track for our team owner Al Niece, and I’m hopeful that we can put on a great performance for him at his home track. The team has been working really hard on this truck, and I know we’ll have a great piece for the race.”

Climbing behind the wheel for his first NCWTS start at Texas Motor Speedway, and his second of four races in 2018 with GMS Racing, Creed will utilize chassis no. 312 for Friday night’s race. The No. 2 team has used this particular chassis three times in 2018 with Cody Coughlin, including when the NCWTS raced at Texas earlier this season, finishing a chassis-best eighth.
