Ryan Preece, riding for David Gilliland Racing as a one-off race, would win his first ever race in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series in his first ever start. Todd Gilliland of Front Row Motorsports and Grant Enfinger of ThorSport Racing would garner the rest of the podium positions, finishing 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
William Byron would make his return to the series driving a one-off race for Rackley WAR.[2]
Nashville Superspeedway is a motor racing complex located in Gladeville, Tennessee (though the track has a Lebanon address), United States, about 30 miles (48 km) southeast of Nashville. The track was built in 2001 and is currently used for events, driving schools and GT Academy, a reality television competition.[3] It is a concrete oval track 11⁄3 miles (2.145 km) long. Nashville Superspeedway is owned by Dover Motorsports, Inc., which also owns Dover International Speedway. Nashville Superspeedway was the longest concrete oval in NASCAR during the time it was on the NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series circuits. Current permanent seating capacity is approximately 25,000. Additional portable seats are brought in for some events, and seating capacity can be expanded to 150,000. Infrastructure is in place to expand the facility to include a short track, drag strip, and road course.
