Rhodes, 26, won his second Truck series title in three seasons Friday night at Phoenix Raceway in most uncharacteristic fashion – by basically surviving a wave of carnage that engulfed the four title contenders in a race that went into four overtimes.
All four drivers – Rhodes, Corey Heim, Carson Hocevar and Grant Enfinger – were involved in on-track incidents at some point in the race and the last two-lap overtime came down to who could survive to the finish line first – Rhodes or Enfinger.
