The 2024 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Fresh from Florida 250 is finally done and dusted. The first race of the season started at 7:30 pm ET on Friday, February 16, and lasted for two hours, 33 minutes, and eight seconds. It took place at Daytona International Speedway, with a total of 36 entries.
Driving the #2 Chevrolet for Rev Racing, Nick Sanchez went to victory lane in the Truck Series season opener at Daytona, scoring his first-ever Truck Series win in a wild finish.
Nick Sanchez survived a nasty last-lap wreck that included a truck flipping over the field to finish in P1, but nearly everyone else on the track suffered some sort of damage. The 22-year-old led a total of 26 laps before winning the race.
On the last lap, Rajah Caruth hooks Jack Wood, who then hits the #17 truck of Taylor Gray. The #17 truck turned sharply sideways and flipped up in the air before landing upright on its wheels.
The massive crash on the final lap witnessed a record-breaking 12th caution, which froze the field and declared Sanchez as the winner.
Meanwhile, Rajah Caruth claimed a P2 finish, followed by Corey Heim, Bret Holmes, and Spencer Boyd in the top five. Stefan Parsons, Matt Crafton, Timmy Hill, Bryan Dauzat, and Christian Eckes completed the top 10.
