A little more than a third of the race completed, a wicked crash sidelined TireMonkey.com driver Mario Gosselin and caused him to finish Saturday’s Nashville 200 race in 26th place.

Gosselin was running in fifth place when, at about lap 64, Joe Aramendia’s No. 1 truck struck the No. 12 truck. The collision sent Gosselin into the outside wall and smashed in the front of the TireMonkey.com truck.

“He needs to learn how to drive,” Gosselin said later.

NASCAR officials were said to investigate the incident. It occurred when no other traffic was present and Aramendia was five laps down. Aramendia ultimately completed 142 of the race’s 150 laps and finished in 21st place.

Todd Bodine of the No. 30 truck won the race. Behind him were Austin Dillon of the No. 3 truck in second place, Aric Almirola of the No. 51 truck in third place, Timothy Peters of the No. 17 truck in fourth place and Johnny Sauter of the No. 13 truck in fifth place.

Next up for the NASCAR Camping World Series is Saturday's Too Tough To Tame 200 race at Darlington Raceway in South Carolina on. All the action begins at 7 p.m. E.T.
