Pockrass picked Front Row Motorsports (FRM) driver Chandler Smith to take the checkered flag at Las Vegas on Friday, March 14. He has a good record at Las Vegas with one win and one top-five finish at this track in the Truck Series.

Rounding out Pockrass’ top-five predictions are Ty Majeski, Corey Heim, Justin Haley, and the defending winner of the event, Rajah Caruth.

Chandler Smith finished sixth and fifth in the first two races of this season. He moved to the Truck Series back this season after competing in the Xfinity Series in the past two years.
