Hailie Deegan was on a roll at the Truck Race on the Nashville Superspeedway. However, things ended poorly for her as another driver got tangled up, wrecking her out. Moreover, Deegan was comfortably in the top 15 and competing for a top 10 finish. Unfortunately, Max Gutiérrez in the #22 truck put a sad end to Deegan’s race.

Although, if there is one thing we know Hailie Deegan for besides her performance on the track, it is her amazing Social Media presence and her YouTube vlogs. And this time around she lashed out at the driver that wrecked her race.

She said, “I’m just pissed, to be honest.”

She then compliments her team, and the chance they had at a good finish as she said, “We would take tires and drive back through the field, and it was just great, great pit stops, Truck just kept getting better and better every single stop. We were in the position to finish easy in the top-10.” 

However, a disaster struck for the David Gilliland Racing driver, as the #22 hit her. She expresses her frustration as she said, “The 22 just flat out wrecks us. Kid’s a clown, I mean he’s tried to wreck me at charlotte too. I don’t get it, I really don’t get it,”
