California Truck Race Recap

Mark Martin for the second week in a row won the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race. This week the venue was California but it wasn’t any better for the young Open Wheelers.

Erin Crocker spun early in the event when another truck drove by in turn one taking the air off of her spoiler and sending her spinning on the inside of the backstretch.
Luckily she did not hit anything and was able to continue.

Boston Reid did not was not as lucky.

For the second week in a row the Indiana native was caught up in an accident not of his own making. This time he went high to avoid the wreck but was forced into the wall.

The truck received a large amount of damage to its right side.

Reid was forced to pull the truck behind the wall.
