The Old Bastard Racing League Truck Series Toyota Care 400 night race at Richmond Raceway started with Mike Schrader capturing the pole and setting the fastest lap of the race. Dakota Pischke gained 20 spots for the most positions gained bonus. The race produced many close battles for position through the field with many position changes. Professional iRacing Driver Dan DeNayer #30 led the most laps with 70, going on to capture the win. This week the drivers showed poor race-craft, which resulted in 7 cautions with 5 lead changes and there was 1 disqualification and 6 disconnects in a 29 truck field. The race ended with Dan DeNayer capturing his 2nd win of the season with Joey Geiser finishing 2nd, Bobby McCormick nabbing 3rd and Thomas Ogle finishing 4th.
This week the Truck Series moves to the Sparks Energy 300 race at Talladega SuperSpeedway with the current points leader Thomas Ogle looking to maintain the lead in the series. The question is … can he hold off the charging Old Bastards?
We shall see when the green flag drops at 9:05 pm Eastern time.
In the Truck Series points championship Joey Geiser is 2nd, Josh Robinson 3rd, Dan DeNayer 4th and Mike Schrader in 5th.
The Talladega race will be intense, and expect to see close battles all over the track.
