What’s Happening?
After a mild start to the afternoon with a rather tame Truck Series race, it didn’t take long for things to get wild in Atlanta. Racing for a top 10 spot, Corey Day tried to squeeze his nose into an opening where it wouldn’t fit. As a result, a massive wreck broke out along the frontstretch. Here’s what went down.

- Corey Day looked unstable from the jump as he was racing in the middle of the pack. He was able to work his way up to just outside the top 10. Around him, Ryan Sieg got a huge run. Now realizing that the No. 39 was beside him, Day turned him straight into the outside SAFER Barrier.
- This caused a huge multi-car incident which collected the likes of Ryan Sieg’s brother, Kyle, Harrison Burton, and Blaine Perkins, who was coming off a top 10 run at Daytona.
- Understandably, Ryan Sieg was very upset over the radio. He did suffer a brutally hard impact. In his radio communication, he heavily criticized Corey Day, stating that every week he’s in the middle of some sort of on-track incident.
- Sieg is also the owner of his and his brother’s cars. This will be a tough one to swallow at the office next week.
