Stage three in Friday’s Craftsman Truck Series race at Darlington began with a massive accident out of turn two. On lap 99, the first lap of the stage under green, Dean Thompson’s No. 5 Toyota got loose in the middle of turn two. Thompson overcorrected into his TRICON Garage teammate Corey Heim while attempting to save his truck, causing a pileup that collected Matt Crafton, Layne Riggs, Rajah Caruth, and Jack Wood.
