GLADEVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Points leader Todd Bodine earned his second victory of the season, winning the Nashville 200 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Nashville Superspeedway on Saturday.

Rookie Austin Dillon, the grandson of car owner Richard Childress, finished second, followed by Aric Almirola.

Timothy Peters, who led 57 laps early before trouble with his left front tire, came in fourth.

Bodine, who was the pole-sitter, extended his series lead over Almirola to 174 points.

Kyle Busch won the April Nashville truck race, which was his first as an owner. No current Sprint Cup drivers participated in Saturday’s event.
