Grant Enfinger sweeps another victory at the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in Kansas
Grant Enfinger won the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Heart of America 200 at Kansas Speedway on Saturday night. Enfinger won the race by 4.358 seconds over runner-up Corey Heim in GMS Racing's No. 23 Chevrolet Military Appreciation Silverado for his first victory of the 2023 season.
There were seven leaders and 15 lead changes throughout the race. Enfinger led 65 laps, including the last 32 of the 134-lap race on the 1.5-mile track after passing Heim and Zane Smith in a three-wide push to the top.
Enfinger told the media:
“We haven’t had a dominant truck like this in a long time, we were lights out. We had the best truck out here."
He continued:
“It’s been a dismal year and a half. I know we came up with a win last year, but overall, we were sluggish. The first seven races this year, we were a little sluggish. I was disappointed in our execution. The biggest thing is these guys just brought me an unbelievable truck.”
Enfinger has finished every lap of the truck series' eight races this season with the exception of one. However, he has only led three of them before to Saturday night.
