Clay Greenfield picked up the 1st last-place finish of his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series career in Friday’s North Carolina Education Lottery 200 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway when his #68 @ClayGreenfield RAM fell out with power steering problems after 6 of the race’s 134 laps. The finish came in Greenfield’s 16th series start.

Greenfield was competing in the third race of his third season on the circuit, a year that began with a career-best 10th-place finish at Daytona in February. He qualified 33rd for Friday’s race at an average speed of 174.967 mph.  This ranked him ninth among the sixteen "go-or-go-homers," and ahead of five drivers who failed to qualify.

In the race itself, Brennan Newberry and his #14 The Jeremy Staat Foundation Chevrolet brought out the first caution on Lap 3. Greenfield still ended up the first truck out of the race after his #68 was seen smoking on the apron following an early restart.
