REPORT - GrantEnfinger wins the NASCAR_Trucks opener at RaceIRP, a thrilling race with a controversial finish: NASCAR
Enfinger was among several trucks that pit for new tires under a late race caution and he had made his way up to fourth when the race went into overtime.
“We’ve been working so hard because we’ve been sucking. It hurts to say it, but we have had a terrible season to this point. But we had a great No. 23 Chevy all night. I felt like every time we got the lead, a caution came out.Regular season champion Zane Smith ended up third, Stewart Friesen was fourth and Corey Heim rounded out the top-five.Following the break between Stages 2 and 3, only a handful of trucks elected to pit.
With 15 laps to go, Enfinger closed to within 1.3 seconds of Majeski but was making little progress against the race leader. Most of the lead-lap trucks pit with Majeski the first off pit road. Nemechek and nine others elected to stay out. On Lap 105, Enfinger’s patience finally paid off as he got around Hocevar to take the lead for the first time. Lapped traffic appear to impede Hocevar’s progress.Nemechek spun on Lap 107 in Turn 4 and made contact with Kris Wright to bring out the fifth caution of the race.
