Hornaday Looks to End Busch's Truck Dominance

Digg this story  Post to delicious


All three of NASCAR's national series -- Sprint Cup, Nationwide, and Camping World Truck -- visit the Lone Star State this weekend for racing at Texas Motor Speedway. The Truck Series kicks off the racing action with Friday night's WinStar World Casino 350.

Ron Hornaday heads into this weekend's event with a 202-point lead over second-place driver Matt Crafton in the driver points standings with only three races remaining on the 2009 schedule. With the seemingly comfortable lead, Crafton isn't the concern for Hornaday and his Kevin Harvick Inc. team. Their concern is the No. 51 truck of Billy Balew Racing and its driver Kyle Busch.

"Crafton isn’t our worry,” Hornaday said. “We are worried about the No. 51. He is fighting for the owners’ points, and he’s the guy we’re racing, too.”

The No. 51 truck is just 100 points back from Hornaday and KHI's No. 33. Additional reason for concern -- Busch hasn't lost a Truck Series race in two months. He has won in his last four starts in the No. 51.

Both Hornaday and Busch have run well in Texas. Hornaday finished 19th there in June after leading 52 laps but swept both Texas races a year ago. The runner-up to both of those wins -- Busch.

“Texas has really become a great place for us the last two years,” Hornaday said. “I used to struggle at Texas, but (crew chief) Rick Ren and the No. 33 guys have really gotten a good setup for the truck.”

Television coverage for Friday's Camping World Truck Series race is scheduled for an 8:30 p.m. ET start on SPEED.
