2022 General Tire 200 (Talladega)
The 2022 General Tire 200 was the third stock car race of the 2022 ARCA Menards Series season, and the 60th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, April 23, 2022, in Lincoln, Alabama at Talladega Superspeedway, a 2.66 mile (4 km) permanent triangle-shaped superspeedway. The race was decreased from 76 laps to 68 laps, due to a time restraint with the NASCAR Xfinity Series race. At race's end, Nick Sanchez of Rev Racing would win, after Daniel Dye spun on the backstretch with 9 laps to go. This was Sanchez's second career ARCA Menards Series win, and his first of the season. To fill out the podium, Bret Holmes of Bret Holmes Racing and Corey Heim of Venturini Motorsports would finish 2nd and 3rd, respectively. The race was marred by a crash involving several drivers, including Richard Garvie, Brayton Laster, Toni Breidinger, Eric Caudell, Scott Melton, Tim Richmond, and barely Ryan Huff. Garvie's car would clip the front of Laster's car, and would result in a near flip for Garvie. Eric Caudell slid across the track, as he tried to avoid the wreck. As he came up onto the track, he would get t-boned by Scott Melton, Ryan Huff would barely get involved in the accident, but would manage an 8th place finish. Safety personnel had to get Melton out of the car, and was taken to a local hospital on a stretcher. Background
