Chandler Smith drove the No. 18 KBM Toyota to his third victory of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season in Saturday night’s Worldwide Express 250. His truck was found with a single unsecured lug nut in a post-race check by officials, a violation detailed in Section 8.8.10.4a in the NASCAR Rule Book.
