The Mint 400 is in full swing out in Las Vegas, Nevada with the teams taking part in today’s time trials. Teams and drivers headed out to battle for position in Saturday’s race.

Taking home the fastest spot, finishing inĀ 00:04:00.830 was the number 1 truck of Jason Voss. Coming off a win in the Baja 1000 just a few months ago, Voss looks to take down Justin Lofton who is the back to back winner. Lofton who took a DNF in qualifying will be starting from the back of the pack.
