Christian Eckes put his foot on the throats of the competition on Lap 1 as he took the lead from polesitter Stewart Friesen, and he never let up. The driver of the No. 19 McAnally-Hilgemann Racing swept Stages 1 and 2, and then cruised to the win by 2.028 seconds over his teammate Daniel Dye. Eckes led all 150 laps on his march to the win.
Following the win, Eckes’ race-winning No. 19 Adaptive One McAnally-Hilgemann Racing Chevrolet Silverado underwent the scrutnity of post-race inspection, where the truck was given a passing grade. As a result, NASCAR officially declared Eckes and his team the official winners of the Rackley Roofing 200 at Nashville Superspeedway.
This is the third win of the 2024 season for Eckes, and it is the eighth win of the driver’s 104-race NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series career.
With the win, Eckes also pocketed the $50,000 Triple Truck Challenge bonus.
Matt Crafton’s No. 88 ThorSport Racing Ford F-150 and Matt Mills’ No. 42 Niece Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado had one unsecured lug nut each, which will result in a monetary fine for their crew chiefs.
No other issues were detected in post-race inspection, which means all results and standings following Friday night’s race are now considered official.
Daniel Dye was the official runner-up finisher ahead of Corey Heim, Rajah Caruth, and Tyler Ankrum who rounded out the top-five finishers.
