After a four-week break in the schedule, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series returns to competition at the always-exciting Talladega Superspeedway in Saturday’s Fr8Auctions 250 (at 1 p.m. ET on FOX, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
This is the elimination race for the opening Round of 8 in the series Playoffs with only Justin Haley and Grant Enfinger assured of advancing because of wins at the Playoff openers at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park (Haley) and Las Vegas (Enfinger). Only 10 points separate 10th place Stewart Friesen from eighth place Matt Crafton, a two-time series champion, however.
Ninth place Ben Rhodes, who trails Crafton by five points, has yet to finish the race in two Talladega starts. Friesen finished 17th last year in his only previous start. Parker Kligerman is the defending race winner.
