The Camping World Truck Series will be making its Spring debut at Las Vegas Motor Speedway – a place the series has traditionally visited later in the season for a NASCAR “standalone” show.
Judging by the history of the truck races, Vegas fans can expect to be thrilled with high action and the possibility of a first-time track winner. Christopher Bell became the 11th different winner in as many races last Fall in a Victory Lane that’s crowned drivers from Travis Kvapil (2007) to Nelson Piquet (2012) to John Wes Townley (2015).
Another former winner to keep an eye on this weekend is Las Vegas native Kyle Busch, who is entered in all three NASCAR national races, but making his first truck start at his hometown track since 2001. Busch is the only NASCAR driver to sweep three national series races in a weekend – doing it twice at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway.
