Ty Majeski dominates Truck race at Lucas Oil, clinches spot in Round of 8

Ty Majeski wins the TSport 200 at Lucas Oil Raceway in the opening race of the 2023 NASCAR Truck Series playoffs.

[autotag]Ty Majeski[/autotag] took home the NASCAR Truck Series playoff opener at Lucas Oil Raceway and it was in dominant fashion. Majeski led a career-high 179 laps and swept the race for a total of seven playoff points. It was an almost flawless night after coming up short at Richmond Raceway in the regular season finale two weekends ago.

The ThorSport Racing driver had the best truck the entire night and closed out the event with an almost four-second advantage over Christian Eckes and Layne Riggs. Majeski entered the 2023 playoffs with no victories but had speed the entire season. Now, he will carry at least 21 playoff points into the Round of 8.

There are now two races left in the Round of 10 at the Milwaukee Mile and Kansas. Majeski should be very fast at both events; however, he won’t have to worry about points due to one of the most dominant wins of the 2023 Truck Series season.
