Motor car race
The 2020 SpeedyCash.com 400 was the 21st stock car race of the 2020 NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series season, the 24th iteration of the event, and the second race of the Round of 8. The race was originally going to be held on June 5, 2020, but was postponed to Sunday, October 25, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1][2] The race was held in Fort Worth, Texas at Texas Motor Speedway, a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) permanent quad-oval racetrack. The race was extended from its scheduled 147 laps to 152 laps due to a late race wreck caused by Ben Rhodes turning Christian Eckes; much to the dismay of Eckes, Eckes would give Rhodes a double middle finger the next time Rhodes went by his car.[3] At race's end, Sheldon Creed of GMS Racing would dominate and win the race, the 4th of the season and NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series career win.[4] To fill out the podium, Austin Hill of Hattori Racing Enterprises and Zane Smith of GMS Racing would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.

The track layout is similar to Atlanta Motor Speedway and Charlotte Motor Speedway (formerly Lowe's Motor Speedway). The track is owned by Speedway Motorsports, Inc., the same company that owns Atlanta and Charlotte Motor Speedway, as well as the short-track Bristol Motor Speedway.
