NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series

The NASCAR season is just underway, as Week 2 kicks off just outside Atlanta. With 25 races scheduled for the Craftsman Truck Series this season, there are sure to be plenty twists and turns over the coming months as drivers move up and down the standings following each race.

Chandler Smith currently leads the Craftsman Truck Series standings through one week, taking the checkered flag at Daytona. Christian Eckes and Ty Majeski fall in behind him with a nice weekend with plenty points to kickstart the season. Meanwhile, other drivers will look to shake off a slow start and rise up the board quickly.

No longer looking to make a playoff bracket down the final stretch of the season with cut races, NASCAR has adopted the Chase system for this season. In the Craftsman Truck Series, that means 10 drivers battling from Race 19 on for the championship.
