Corey Heim nursed his fuel through a tenuous two-lap overtime and held on to win Saturday’s NASCAR Truck Series race at Circuit of the Americas.
Heim had built a more than 8-second lead before a bizarre incident – Marco Andretti lost the entire rear-end housing off his truck – brought out a late-race caution and brief red flag. Heim and his Tricon Garage teammate Taylor Gray were running first and second and both were close on fuel. Both elected to remain on the track rather than pit. Heim cleared Gray quickly through Turn 1 for the lead on the overtime restart and held on to take a 1.625-second win.
