- On a restart with 18 laps to go Friday at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, race-leader Tyler Ankrum got shoved off the track in Turn 1, dropping him out of the top 10.
Just 13 circuits later, with five laps to go, the 22-year-old from San Bernardino, California made the race-winning pass on fellow NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series regular Dean Thompson.
Both Ankrum and Thompson ran the Zinsser SmartCoat 150 in efforts to prepare for Saturday’s Truck Series race at the 13-turn, 2.258-mile road course. Ankrum, though, accomplished much more in his ARCA Menards Series run with his triumphant comeback.
Ankrum, who’s in his sixth season of Truck Series competition, is the 2018 champion of what’s now the ARCA Menards Series East. Friday’s victory marked his first ARCA Menards Series (national) win in just his second start.
Hattori Racing Enterprises fielded both Ankrum’s ARCA car and his Truck Series ride for the Mid-Ohio weekend. That effort proved valuable with Ankrum’s effort Friday night.
Thompson did not earn a top-five finish despite the speed he showed Friday at Mid-Ohio. That’s be cause he and fellow Venturini Motorsports driver Sean Hingorani tangled on the final lap, leaving Thompson with a 10th-place finish and Hingorani with a 13th-place run.
William Sawalich and Jack Wood, two more drivers scheduled to race in Saturday’s Truck Series event at Mid-Ohio, finished second and third, respectively.
ARCA Menards Series championship points leader Jesse Love finished fourth, an impressive run given the issues the VMS driver battled Friday. He started at the back of the field after failing to qualify with electrical issues.
Dale Quarterley rounded out the top-five finishers.
ARCA Menards Series rookie Frankie Muniz finished fifth Friday. The former TV star was making his return to the track where an accident in 2009 halted his racing career.
Todd Souza, Conner Jones, Zach Herrin and Thompson completed the top-10 finishers.
Friday’s Zinsser SmartCoat 150 featured three cautions, one of which was the scheduled race break on Lap 22 of 42. The other two yellow flags were the results of issues for Tim Richmond (stopped on track) and Casey Carden (flat tire).
The ARCA Menards Series returns to action Saturday, July 15 for the Calypso 150 at Iowa Speedway, a combination race with the East Series. That race will be shown live on FS2 and FloRacing starting at 7 p.m. CT / 8 p.m. ET.

I love Tyler ankrum he is such a good kid he deserves this win
Never watched arca but I haven’t heard 1 good thing about it. This solidifies that. Just a bunch of rich kids wrecking each other. Looking at you hingorani
73 year old Bob Schacht gets 14th in his first start in 7 years
Wait that's bob schacht?? I know he ran arca back in the 90s and 80s. Didn't know he races still
Yeah, suspending Hingorani was the right call. Wrecking your teammate out of 2nd place when you're not even racing him for position? Some team owners would fire you for that.
What a fever dream of a race
If I was the team owner somebody be looking for a ride next week.
True testament to talent when you can't pass an inferior car clean on a road course.
Looking at you, Jesse Love
Love is all money no talent. He freaks out about being run dirty when that's all he does
Thank you for the video, keep up on the coverage of the series
So did muniz get 5th after the 2 teamates wrecked each other lol
Thanks for the highlight. Your work is much appreciated
Thank you so much
So much for teammates!
9:16 Whats that.. A Gran Turismo lobby or what x'D
There’s a serious lack of respect in this series. Lots of young punks.
Yeah but that was pretty entertaining.
The 15 pulled a Ty Gibbs move like last year the play off race at martinsville with Brandon jones

Hingorani repeatedly runs out of talent, but good thing his daddy has money 😂
God bless Jon Leonard- can't do it without the whole team. Great driver good crew great crew chief.
15 can't keep his temper and ruined the race and endanger the whole filed with that wreck the euro series have standards to weed these guys out who have more money than brains Nascar should do the same
I think Thompson had that coming.
I'm sure the next team meeting will be interesting...
In what diluted world are you living in???? The 15 was bashing into Thompson for laps and trying to take him out. The 15 driver should be parked.
@@FishNFoolLures No, no, he didn't bash him, he didn't bump him, he didn't nudge him… he rubbed him. And rubbin', son, is racing
Ahahahah ahahahah that's so funny ' the try hards ' ahahahah
“ARCA” and NASCAR are full of little whiny kids from the online racing games that keep wrecking everyone to win.
15 punk move. Hope he copped a couple to the mug. Totally warranted 🫵👊
