Tempers boiled over during Saturday's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Gateway Motorsports Park, with a late crash prompting a memorable scuffle between John Wes Townley and Spencer Gallagher with just seven laps to go.
The fight - which included fists flying and a lot of rolling around on the ground - appeared to be triggered after Gallagher's No. 23 car pinned Townley's vehicle up against the outside lane and knocked both drivers out of the race. It caused yet another caution flag in a race that had several weather and accident-related delays, and a running time of close to four hours.
.@NASCAR_Trucks + @GatewayMSP + Late crash = A fight.
