Christian Eckes Dominates and Wins Rackley Roofing 200 at Nashville
What an impressive performance on Friday night at Nashville Superspeedway by McAnally-Hilgemann Racing’s Christian Eckes. While he didn’t win the pole, Eckes breezed past polesitter Stewart Friesen on the opening lap, and it turned out that would be the winning move of the race, as Eckes never looked back.
The driver of the No. 19 Chevrolet Silverado led all 150 laps, and swept the Stages on his path to his third win of the 2024 NASCAR Truck Series season. Eckes also took home the $50,000 Triple Truck Challenge bonus with the win.
Daniel Dye, his teammate, finished runner-up a couple of seconds behind Eckes. Corey Heim, Rajah Caruth, and Tyler Ankrum rounded out the top-five finishers.

Mike Harmon Racing Fails Pre-Qualifying Inspection; Will Fail to Qualify Nashville
Jade Buford and the No. 74 Mike Harmon Racing team will be the lone entry to DNQ for this weekend’s NASCAR Xfinity Series event at Nashville Superspeedway as the car failed pre-race inspection three times on Friday.
As a result, Buford will be unable to attempt a qualifying run. With the team failing to qualify in all of its attempts this season, they do not have enough owner points to advance to the starting field without a qualifying attempt.
