Allgaier was racing for position on the backstretch during the white-flag lap when was collected in a multi-car crash, with his No. 7 JR Motorsports Chevrolet sliding into the back of Ronnie Bassett Jr.’s No. 90 Chevrolet. Bassett slammed nose-first into the inside wall, sending the car on two wheels before sliding to a stop. Timmy Hill was also involved in the incident, crashing into Bassett’s spinning car in the No. 61 Toyota.
Both Bassett and Hill were treated and released from the infield care center at the 1.5-mile oval.
