Dillon grabbed the lead from Busch, the pole winner, moments after a restart on lap 77 of 100. He soon opened a lead of one second over the most prolific winner in series history, but it wasn’t without some pinpoint calculations from crew chief Danny Stockman. Continue reading →

Despite his lack of dirt-track racing experience, he was able to beat some of the best in the business en route to victory.

From asphalt to dirt, the Camping World Truck Series transitions to the high-banked clay oval of Eldora Speedway on July 23 for the second consecutive season. The only dirt track on the schedule, Eldora will challenge even the most seasoned of veterans as it remains unique to the truck series among national series schedules.

FOX Sports 1 offers coverage of practice, qualifying and the qualifying races throughout the day, with the green flag start scheduled for 9 p.m. ET.Continue reading →
