Derek Kraus had a career-race going in Friday night’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Rackley Roofing 200 at Nashville Superspeedway. He led the entire opening Stage from the pole and took the Stage win.
However, on lap 109, Kraus misjudged while attempting to make a lane change and made contact with Josh Berry. The contact sent Kraus hard into the wall.

Kraus seemed to have the wind knocked out of him as he climbed out of the truck, but he was able to walk away from the crash.
