Stewart Friesen has qualified for the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series playoffs for the second time in only his second full-time season. He kicks off the playoffs third in the standings with one victory and 14 playoff points.

CarShield will rejoin Ross Chastain and the No. 45 Niece Motorsports team for the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series (NGOTS) playoffs, starting this week at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Dylan Lupton will return to the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series this week as DGR-Crosley travels to Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway for the UNOH 200. Lupton will pilot the team's No. 15 Crosley Brands Tundra in his third Truck Series race this season.

Austin Hill scored his second win this season at Michigan International Speedway (MIS) this afternoon.

“Pretty much the same pressure as I have had all year. We show up to the racetrack every week to win. Along those lines, nothing has really changed. I feel like there is other people that maybe will be driving a little farther over their heads, probably me included at some points. It’s the last chance. That part is a little bit tough, but I feel like my team has brought better and faster equipment every week to the racetrack, and this is no different. I’m really excited to get out there.”

Ross Chastain on Racing at Michigan: “I’m really looking forward to Michigan,” said Chastain. “It’s the last race before the playoffs start, and I think this team is really just hitting its stride. We are looking for one more win before the playoffs start.”

Bayley Currey on Racing at Michigan: “I’m really looking forward to this weekend with this Niece Motorsports team,” said Currey. “We had such a strong truck in Pocono, but bad luck on a restart ended our day. I can’t wait to get back on track, I know our truck will be fast. I’m thankful to Al Niece for the opportunity.”

Creed is set to make his first career start in the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series at Michigan.

It took 437 laps led and 63 starts but finally, Stewart Friesen is a winner in the Gander Outdoors Truck Series. Friesen had to hold of Sheldon Creed, and company to win the Dirt Derby at Eldora.

“I’m excited to return to the Truck Series at Eldora,” said Abbey. “It’s definitely a unique challenge, but I’m thankful for the opportunity.
