Entering the NASCAR Truck Series race weekend at Michigan, Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz was hoping for a change in fortune on the track. He failed to finish five of the last seven races with zero top 20s since an impressive tenth place finish in the season-opener at Daytona.
Well, chaos was his friend on Saturday. There was a late-race pileup that eliminated several contenders from the race. Muniz cut through the grass, avoiding all of the spinning trucks and emerging through the smoke without any damage and now running third.
