REPORT - Persistent rain showers cut short the NASCAR_Trucks season-opener at DAYTONA with reigning series champion ZaneSmith taking the win:
"It's huge. The past couple times I've actually been to Daytona I've gotten to visit Victory Lane. To do that for a third time is awesome." Smith said."I tried to play that race as smart as possible. When it was getting really aggressive, I'd get out of it.
Following the caution between Stages 2 and 3, most of the lead-lap trucks elected to pit with Crafton first off pit road. With 45 laps remaining, LaJoie continued to run out front, successfully blocking the advances of Zane Smith and Ankrum.
