A weekend of highs and lows
Thomas Annunziata began the weekend with a decisive victory in Friday’s ARCA Menards Series race at Lime Rock Park, showcasing the speed of his No. 33 entry.
The following day he lined up fourth for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event, but a restart melee saw his truck make contact with the right‑side door, inflicting notable damage.
As the caution period unfolded, fuel leaked and his vehicle erupted in flames, forcing him to finish 29th before being escorted to a local hospital for evaluation.
Team officials confirmed that Annunziata remained awake and alert, though further medical assessment is pending as they monitor his recovery.
Meanwhile, Grant Enfinger capitalized on the chaos to claim his first victory in 40 races, ending a lengthy winless streak and adding a dramatic twist to the event.
The incident underscores the unpredictable nature of short‑track racing, where triumphs and setbacks can unfold within a single weekend.
