Did anyone see the truck race? I thought is was a great race. A few Darlington stripes, great passing and racing. The vets really got it done. I think the truck series is highly underrated. This is racing like it used to be.
 
Nope, don't get Speedvision. But I sure wish I did, 'cause I love to watch those truck drivers go out and lean on each other. No one's getting rich in that series, so almost everyone's racing for a purpose - whether it's a young driver trying to make it to the top for the first time, or a veteran who's fallen on hard times and wants to prove he still has it. When everyone's racing for a purpose, it makes the racing so much better. I love it :D , when I actually get a chance to see it. :(
 
I wish I could have watched it too, and I do have speed. Had to work. I heard Harvick had a pretty good truck until something broke in the engine. :(
 
Yep Harvick broke a valve spring, took the lead for awhile too.....Musgrave had the truck to beat on the long runs, but Bobby Hamiltons' truck was great on the shorter runs. I think if the race had been 10-15 laps longer Musgrave would of won going away.
 
if it was 2 laps longer musgrave might have won, and yes the trucks are very underrated
 
Love the trucks i watch them all the time, reminds me of saturday night racing at the local track!
 
I watched the last 20 laps!!! It was pretty good!! COngrats to Bobby on winnign his first race as a full time truck driver!!!

how do you live? :blink: hehe.

Gotta give credit to Musgrave's gas man for hanging on to that catch can. Whats with the roush engines? Looked like he was running them lean again.

Ummm, I think Teddy drives a Mopar in the CTS series? Don't think Jack builds the engines for them?
 
The truck series is HIGHLY underated. I'm so glad speed picked the series up cause I think it will do alot of good having the races live. To me, the truck series has always had the best racing and probably will until they do some major tweaking to the cup/busch cars.
