It had been the Kyle and Chase show at the Truck race today at Atlanta... but things changed and Kyle went two laps down.
Austin Hill, Ross Chastain and Chase Elliott are out front with 8 to go.

Unless there is a caution, looks like Hill has this... and just as I say this, there is a caution at 3 to go.
Elliott goes spinning around and looses the spot and goes a lap down :eek:

welcome back Oak :)

Hey guys, this our old friend Oak. Some may remember Oak from our previous Pool at other website.
Oak was our very first Champ, he won the overall season first place back a few years ago.
He was also our very first diecast winner, (I think that was a Dale Jr car from a Talladega race).

Boogity Boogity Boogity !!!
