Erik Jones spins early
Damn, I had my hopes up that this race would be one for the guys that could possibly get a win if the big 3 have a bad day !

Byron and Truex colliding.

 

[crazed 9.6]

Byron and Truex colliding.

Hot damn !!!

Truex is going sideways
And Erik Jones gets his lap back !!!

All is not lost yet... Now just to have them other two get messed up and I will be a happy camper...
Not that I don't like them 3, but I am betting that today they do not have a great day
