Johnny Benson, reigning NASCAR Camping World Truck Series champion, will join Rick Allen and Phil Parsons in the SPEED booth for three upcoming NCTWS races.

Benson will offer analysis in place of Michael Waltrip, whose NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driving duties conflict with three Truck Series races, at Iowa Speedway (Sept. 5 live at 10 p.m. ET; NCWTS Setup with Krista Voda at 9:30 p.m. ET), Gateway (Sept. 12 live at 2:30 p.m. ET; NCWTS Setup at 2 p.m. ET) and Las Vegas (Sept. 26 live at 9:30 p.m. ET; NCWTS Setup at 9 p.m. ET).

Benson, sidelined by injuries sustained in a June accident in a Supermodified race at Berlin Raceway in Michigan, holds 14 wins, 56 top-five and 85 top-10 finishes in his Truck Series career.
