NASCAR Trucks Deliver The Most Gargantuan Pile-Up Of 2015
NASCAR Trucks Deliver The Most Gargantuan Pile-Up Of 2015-August 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:45

Here's some carnage that was as wide as the track at Daytona. Holy crap. Twelve trucks. Twelve. Only so little space. Holy crapballs. It's a track-wide wall of bent truck metal and sparks.

At last night's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series NextEra Energy Resources 250, the #11 truck of Ben Kennedy almost came to a standstill, causing trucks behind him to over-slow and pile everybody up. And by "everybody," we mean everybody except the handful of dudes up in front.

Holy.

Crap.

This caused the third caution of the race.

Let us count the things we're thankful for this week:

1. Competent cage builders

2. Really safe truck design

3. Attentive flaggers

4. No, really, cage builders. Thank you, cage builders.

5. Really responsive fire and rescue teams

Dude, they even used their hands to fight fires for this race. Daytona's fire teams don't mess around.

This was the season opener for the Camping World Truck Series, and pulled off the year's first win with some drafting and blocking help from his teammate. The top five trucks were able to drive on ahead of the carnage. Reddick drives for Brad Keselowski's team, which gave Keselowski his first win as a team owner.

Formula Drift might not be for everyone, but holy hell do they get a lot of things right that other racing series can’t seem to wrap brains around. I attended last weekend’s Long Beach season-opening round and I was absolutely astonished by the incredible ways FD is adapting existing technology...
