Kyle Busch won Saturday’s NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Pocono Raceway.
Nick Sanchez began the day on the pole. The first caution came out on lap 4 when Tanner Gray got loose and hit the inside wall. The first stage ended on lap 15 with Zane Smith out front. Corey Heim would grab the lead on the restart but opted for a green flag stop prior to the ending of the second stage which gave Smith the second stage.
With Smith and the others pitting Heim would move back to the front of the field along with Kyle Busch, Taylor Gray and Parker Kligerman. Nick Sanchez and Jake Garcia spun with 16 laps to go and with nine to go several trucks were eliminated from the race in a multi-truck incident set off by Carson Hocevar.
