NASCAR Truck Series ----- Knoxville Raceway ----- Friday, July 9th 2021

I'm not sure what the chances are we see a late model guy get in a truck at Knoxville. Lucas Oil is scheduled against the race. WoO LM is off July 9th and in Wisconsin July 10th. I'd be interested in seeing Ryan Unzicker get a chance. Didn't he just win the ARCA race at Springfield? Another guy, how about some Iowa love with Birky. Pierce has done Eldora, so maybe Knoxville?

Betcha Brown for sure and maybe McCarl get a truck ride at knoxville

Do they allow mattress's in the grandstands?.....

So what happened to truck race at Eldora?

So what happened to truck race at Eldora?

My understanding was Eldora said not to the truck race.

I would bet neither want a ride or even care.

I think it’s more like Stewart starting a series with Evernham and claiming Eldora as one of the main races...NASCAR didn’t like that and close to go elsewhere. I think NASCAR also is trying to quell the backlash they received when they announced they weren’t coming back to Iowa Speedway

Typical Nascar. Fans beg for more short tracks. They finally start to get the picture on pavement and get rid of some cookie cutters. They had a chance to do the same on the dirt track, yet they again choose a big track. Truck race should be on a smaller track. Lucas Speedway comes to mind, but I would prefer even smaller. I understand they "need" the faculties to stroke their ego, but it should be about the end product, not the "headlines" of running a famous track. Kinda like INDY. It was about running there, not about the race.

I'm glad to see they are trying something different. Nascar got so far behind on entertainment value it's good to see them finally trying something different. Will it interest me enough to go? Probably not. There are a lot of great races at Knoxville I'd be more likely to go to. But will be interesting to watch the kids tearing stuff up on tv.

Should of had trucks and cup at Knoxville Saturday night and then had them run the road to the 3/4 paved track up the road on Sunday. Those haulers bring 2 cars right lol

Surf has no love for his boy Rico any more? Chase briscoes dirt career can’t be labeled a dirt ringer in any sense of the phrase. If you’re gonna use his truck win at eldora I guess bubba is a ringer too.

This is NAPCAR’s punishment for Tony for SRX. NO DOUBT.

Not really. My understanding is Eldora declined to have the trucks this year. Also SRX isn't a Tony thing Ray Evernham started it and asked Tony to be apart of it.

[WisWildManFan]

It’s 100% nascar’s punishment for the srx series. It’s a pissing match.
