Overview
- The Buckle Up South Carolina 200 stretched to 157 laps after two overtimes, first triggered by leader Carson Hocevar’s late crash and then by a multi-truck incident.
- Heim pitted on lap 145 for five-lap scuffs, advanced from 15th to ninth before the final restart, and used the extra grip to dive under Chastain in turns three and four for the win.
- Chastain finished second and said he was surprised by the move, with Christian Eckes third and polesitter Kaden Honeycutt fourth after leading a race-high 59 laps.
- Honeycutt criticized Cup Series regulars for aggressive restart tactics, highlighting brewing friction between Truck regulars and visiting Cup drivers.
- NASCAR ejected four truck chiefs for repeated inspection failures, costing those teams pit selection at Rockingham, as Chandler Smith retained the points lead heading into the April 3 event where the Triple Truck Challenge continues.
