Layne Riggs relished his role as a spoiler and scored his second career victory at Bristol Motor Speedway on Thursday. Despite not being in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series championship contention, Riggs passed Corey Heim for the lead and held on till the end in the playoff opener. He expressed gratitude towards his Front Row Motorsports team and acknowledged the valuable learning experience with the trucks. Corey Heim finished second and secured enough points to advance to the Round of 8, with Christian Eckes and Nick Sanchez also advancing. Rajah Caruth’s third-place finish elevated him in the standings, positioning him well for the upcoming elimination race in Kansas next Friday.
