After taking the pole and leading the most laps, will battled with Jackson Allen and Eric Drapeau for most of the night. After 30 laps though, Will was able to just stay ahead of Stage winning Jackson Allen for his 4th win in the ITRL. 28 trucks remained running in the morning hours in Texas, while 5 trucks unfortunately couldn’t make it to the finish after a grueling 102 miles.
