Spencer Boyd to Sit Out Eldora, Other Races With Back Injury

Spencer Boyd revealed on Tuesday that he has been dealing with a non-racing back injury. Not only that, Boyd’s doctor had advised him to miss time this past week at Pocono to heal.

Boyd opted to continue racing, but the pain has become too much and the 24-year old driver will sit out this weekend’s NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series Race at Eldora Speedway and potentially more races going forward.
