Collard narrowly takes Talladega.
Talladega, AL-- The NASRA Supertruck Series took the the high banks of the Talladega Superspeedway. Jordan Robson, a usual frontrunner at the plate tracks took the pole for the event.
The race took off with a fairly green run, with the opening 10 laps running under green. However a big wreck was triggered on the backstretch between Stephen Black and Clayton Stokes, sending Stokes spinning and Black flipping down the backstraightaway.
The race from that point on, was fairly green. At the end of the race Dave Collard managed to take the lead but then ran up into Hank Lee , causing a few trucks to spinout. Collard and the #18 of Pete Engelmanas had a drag race to the line, but Collard edged the 18 to the line by 0.007 seconds, which is one of the closest finish's in NASRA History.
Next week the Truck Series heads to Martinsville, the shortest track on the circuit.
