2016 Drivin' for Linemen 200
The 2016 Drivin' for Linemen 200 was the 9th stock car race of the 2016 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, and the 16th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, June 25, 2016, in Madison, Illinois, at Gateway Motorsports Park, a 1.25-mile (2.01 km) permanent tri-oval shaped racetrack. The race took the scheduled 160 laps to complete. In a wreck filled race, Christopher Bell, driving for Kyle Busch Motorsports, held off Ben Rhodes on the final restart, and earned his second career NASCAR Camping World Truck Series win, along with his first of the season. It was also the 50th NASCAR win for Kyle Busch Motorsports as an organization. To fill out the podium, Daniel Hemric, driving for Brad Keselowski Racing, would finish 3rd, respectively. But the race was most known for a fight between John Wes Townley and Spencer Gallagher. After the two crashed out of the race, the two had words when they climbed out of their trucks before Townley lunged at Gallagher and tackled him to the ground. The two got up and went to the ground again before they eventually got up again with announcer Vince Welch laughing. Townley then landed four punches on Gallagher before he tried to land a couple more but missed before either they go separated by the NASCAR Officials or Townley simply gave up, let go of Gallagher, and walked away. Soon, Townley and Gallagher's fight began trending and was called one of the funniest fights ever in sports. Townley was eventually fined $15,000 and placed on probation until the end of the year while Gallagher was fined $12,000 and also placed on probation at the end of the year
