Honeycutt takes points lead
Kaden Honeycutt wins Kansas truck race and takes the series points lead
Anonymous
Kaden Honeycutt won the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Race to Stop Suicide 200 at Kansas Speedway, taking the lead late and holding it to the finish. The victory moved him into the series points lead. The race’s start was delayed by rain, and qualifying was canceled, so the lineup was set by NASCAR’s rules, with Nick Sanchez on the pole and Jake Garcia alongside him. Late-race incidents and tire problems reshuffled the field, including a setback for Layne Riggs, who had battled Honeycutt for the lead.
