Busch is set to feature in Friday night's race, too, so it could well be four Truck wins for Cup drivers come the checkered flag.
Last time out in the Truck Series, Chandler Smith emerged victorious in the No. 38 for Front Row Motorsports, prevailing in overtime after late contact between his team-mate Corey Heim and Layne Riggs at North Wilkesboro last weekend.
Smith's victory was his second of the season and sees him sit second in the standings heading to Charlotte, with Heim 47 points ahead in first position.
Elsewhere, Daniel Hemric, Tyler Ankrum and Grant Enfinger round out the top five in that order.
With that said, let's get into all of the timing and TV details ahead of today's race!
