We all love the action and excitement of NASCAR and the long, hard drive to a championship. That said, it is fun to see a break in the regular proceedings, which usually come in the form of the races that are not run on the traditional oval. We are getting that this weekend in Bristol, as it will be a dirt track that the drivers have to negotiate, which makes for a whole different ball game. The trucks will hit the dirt on Saturday night at 8 PM EST for their race, and this should be a fun one to watch. The season is off to a very good start, with the driver standings rather tight at the top. The outcome of this one, which is always a bit of a crapshoot, could change how things look at the top. Let’s take a look at the current NASCAR betting analysis of the top drivers to see how they might handle the Bristol dirt.

Ty Majeski
Majeski had a solid season in 2022, his first as a full-time driver in the Truck Series, finishing 4th overall, which included a pair of wins in the playoffs. The way he closed out the year suggested that he might be a major player this season, which has certainly proven to be the case. Majeski is at the top of the driver standings, and while he is still looking for his first win of the season, he has landed in the top 5 in 3 of the 5 races to this point. It is a much better start than what he had last year, so we can perhaps expect a better finish than the 21st place run he had in this race in 2022.

Zane Smith
You can’t ask for much more in the way of consistency than what Smith has delivered over his first 3 full seasons in the Truck Series. He ranked 2nd overall in his first 2 years before finally getting over the hump and winning it all last season. Smith has picked up right where he left off and has already taken a couple of checkered flags from the first 5 races of the season. He has already won on a road course, but can he do the same on the dirt? Well, he finished 10th in this corresponding race last season, so every reason to believe he could be in the mix.

Ben Rhodes
This is a driver that has a win and a 2nd place finish overall in the last 2 seasons in the Truck Series, so another one who knows all about consistency and the ability to win. That said, he is still looking for his first victory of the 2023 season, but he has only been outside the top 10, and even then only just, once through the opening 5 races. Perhaps that drought might end this weekend, though, as he won on the dirt last year, making him the favorite here.

Christian Eckes
Prior to this season, Eckes had managed just 1 win in his time with the Truck Series, but since he is only just 22 years of age, the feeling is that we have yet to see the best of him. He is off to a very solid start this season, winning in Atlanta and also managing a podium finish at Daytona. He ran in the top 5 in the Bristol dirt race last season, so I would not be surprised to see him up among the leaders again this weekend.
