Description

The 2023 Long John Silver's 200 was the 7th stock car race of the 2023 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, and the 25th iteration of the event. The race was held on Friday, April 14, 2023, in Ridgeway, Virginia at Martinsville Speedway, a 0.526 miles (0.847 km) permanent paper-clip shaped racetrack. The race was decreased from 200 laps to 124 laps, due to constant rain showers. In a race that sparked controversy, Corey Heim, driving for Tricon Garage, would win the race after putting on a dominating performance, winning both stages and leading 82 laps to earn his third career NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win, along with his first of the season. To fill out the podium, Kyle Busch, driving for his own team, Kyle Busch Motorsports, and Zane Smith, driving for Front Row Motorsports, would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
