Tempers were flaring the Martinsville playoff race as a bump-and-run secured one driver the win and denied another a shot at the 2024 NASCAR Truck Series championship.
Christian Eckes was a dominant force in Saturday's NASCAR Truck race at Martinsville, but a rash of late yellows completely changed the complexion of the finish. Several drivers chose to pit for fresh tires, rapidly cutting through the field and one of them had his sights set on the Championship 4. Taylor Gray drove all the way to the back bumper of Eckes and powered into the race lead. Moments later, Eckes ran into the back of Gray and shot him up the track.
