Chandler Smith was flying near the end of the NASCAR Truck Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway. But even after taking the lead on pure pace, he still had to fend off a charging Kyle Larson in the closing laps, which he did masterfully. Along with the checkered flag, Smith also collects a $50,000 bonus as part of the 'Triple Truck Challenge' incentive program.
"I'm more excited for this team than I am for myself," said Smith, who now has six wins in the NASCAR Truck Series. "We hired my crew chief like three weeks before Daytona. Take that in for a second. This group just got assembled literally in January. The good Lord works in mysterious ways."
