From ThorSport Racing PR –
“Having the flat tire late in the race was an unfortunate event. As I was passing for the lead the No. 4 (Todd Gilliland) tried to block me and clipped the right front, very gentle, but a brace ended up breaking and cut the tire immediately. I was in the lead in the middle of Turn 1 and Turn 2 when the tire popped. Luckily we didn’t hit the wall. We came down to fix it and then blew another tire. Came down pit road, again, to fix it and but by that point we were two laps down. I really think our Havoline Ford F-150 was the truck to beat today. We were going to win the race.” – Ben Rhodes
