Ben Rhodes hasn’t been the flashiest of drivers in the NASCAR Truck Series, but he’s certainly made the most of his championship opportunities.
Rhodes, 26, won his second Truck series title in three seasons Friday night at Phoenix Raceway in most uncharacteristic fashion – by basically surviving a wave of carnage that engulfed the four title contenders in a race that went into four overtimes. All four drivers – Rhodes, Corey Heim, Carson Hocevar and Grant Enfinger – were involved in on-track incidents at some point in the race and the last two-lap overtime came down to who could survive to the finish line first – Rhodes or Enfinger.
“They helped us a lot this weekend, so I feel really bad about their finishing position because it was going to be like a Ford one-two I thought, and that was going to be really cool.” Finding a home in the Truck Series Rhodes was at one time considered a hot up-and-coming prospect in NASCAR. He enjoyed a successful karting career growing up, moved to Late Models and won the 2014 championship in what is now called ARCA East Series.
