CWTS - UNOH 175 Preview

The Camping World Truck Series returns to the New Hampshire Motor Speedway for the first time since 2011. Johnny Sauter will be looking to regain the points lead after starting from the pole and posting a disappointing 14th place finish in Chicagoland last Saturday night. He is now back five points in the standings to the new leader Matt Crafton who had a solid run finishing second to Kyle Busch. Look for Sauter and Crafton to both be factors on Saturday afternoon. In 2011 they both finished in the top ten.

Kyle Busch won the last three CWTS races in New Hampshire (2009, 2010, 2011) but will not be in the field. After a dominating run at Chicagoland he will turn the wheel over to Erik Jones. Jones finished third in his last outing at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park. He will be making his first visit to New Hampshire in a truck along with Ryan Blaney and Darrell Wallace Jr. Blaney struggled
with his truck all evening at Chicagoland eventually ending up 12th while Wallace Jr had a blown tire and was able to recover for a 6th place finish.

You can check out the UNOH 175 Saturday at 1 PM EST on FOX Sports 1 or your local PRN affiliate. Below are the top five in points headed into this weekends race:
