The red flag came out on Lap 78 after Rajah Caruth spun on the bottom of Turn 4, collecting multiple trucks. William Sawalich, Daniel Hemric and Andrés Pérez de Lara were some of the drivers who were swept up in this incident.
Corey Heim, winner of the season opener at Daytona, ran into issues on the final lap of Stage 2 when his No. 11 Tricon Garage Toyota ran out of fuel. This caused Heim to fall four laps down initially and resulted in a 23rd-place finish, ultimately crossing the line three laps down.
The Craftsman Truck Series will return to action on Friday, March 14, for the Ecosave 200 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (9 p.m. ET, FS1, NRN Radio, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio).
