Tundra driver Kyle Busch’s victory in Friday night’s race at Texas Motor Speedway enabled Toyota to clinch its seventh NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) manufacturer’s championship in 11 years participating in the series.
Kyle Busch opened his quest for a rare triple sweep in successful fashion Friday evening by capturing the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series WinStar World Casino & Resort 350 in a green/white-checkered overtime finish at Texas Motor Speedway.
After an astounding run toward the front after a late restart in Friday night’s Winstar World Casino and Resort 350 at Texas Motor Speedway, Kyle Busch took the checkered flag under caution at the end of a green-white-checkered-flag run to the finish of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race.
Rookie Tyler Reddick of BK Racing earned his second NASCAR Camping World Truck Series pole of the season during Friday’s Pinnacle Propane Qualifying Days for the WinStar World Casino & Resort 350 at Texas Motor Speedway.
"I'm proud of this whole Dollar General crew. We've been getting a hard time for not winning anything this year -- so small victories I guess. It's pole night and that's the best driving car I've had at an intermediate (track) all year by far, hands down. These guys did a great job, good adjustments throughout this qualifying -- we got a little better every round and got that last lap just by the smallest of margins.
“It was three incredible laps and a great effort by our Drive To End Hunger Chevrolet team today. All day long we have had a fast race car. It’s awesome to be able to back that up in qualifying. It’s so tricky at a track like this where the tires fall off a little bit and this is an abrasive track, but super-fast.
“It wasn’t a bad run for the No. 22 AAA Ford, but its not what we were hoping for. We were pretty good in the first round and I thought we would be better in the second round, but we were good enough to make it. The later it went, the faster the guys went.
