NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Champion

The Place: Homestead Florida
The Event: the Ford 200
The Series: NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series

Johnny Benson won the race. (I didn't want to keep you in suspense about the race winner)

The early part of the race saw Mike Skinner and Jon Wood having the dominant trucks of the night. I had chalked the championship up to Skinner because initially, it looked like Hornaday was struggling to make 5th. But the hand of fate reached in and Mike Skinner's truck fell apart at the left rear wheel hub, setting him back 10 laps and Ron Hornaday Jr. just had to stay in the running.

No flats, no crash aftermaths, no debris - that's all.. and sure enough, he finished on the lead lap in 7th and got his 3rd truck series championship.

Congratulations Ron, Congratulations Kevin Harvick Inc...
