The Rock. Need more races there.

I know it's just 2 races in, but I'm shocked at where some of the drivers are. Defending champion in 12th. Coulter only in 15th! Ryan Sieg in 6th, which is amazing considering how underfunded they are.

MJ_N_09 · 14 Apr 2013, 17:51 (Ref:3234104)

Rockingham race is today. Hope it's a good one.

fieldodreams79 · 14 Apr 2013, 18:52 (Ref:3234113)

I believe there is more people at the Rock today than there was at TMS last night...

Tejas sucks.

Ron Hornaday dumps Darrell Wallace, Jr. under caution. Hmmmmmm...

fieldodreams79 · 14 Apr 2013, 20:22 (Ref:3234164)

Kyle Larson gets his first win in the Trucks Series. Good for him! Burnouts with no steering wheel? That's new! Like this kid.

Chase Elliott gets his first top 5, one spot better than last week. Doing the math....

Basically for the same reason as Kyle did to Ron 2 years ago at TMS. The punishment this time? Tail end of the lead lap. Nice consistent call, Nascar.

**gomick** · 14 Apr 2013, 20:47 (Ref:3234185)

They need to start giving out drive thru penalties like most other series - under green flag conditions ofcourse

Points after 3 rounds...

Johnny Sauter - 135

Matt Crafton - 115
Ron Hornaday - 105

Darrell Wallace - 90

The last 100 laps of that race redeem the weekend of crap from TMS. Easily more people there than for the Nationwide race in Texas. Great job Larson, and yes, Hornaday should be parked for Kansas, Bubba took it like a real man in his interview.

The Original Instag8or · 14 Apr 2013, 21:38 (Ref:3234230)

Consistent calls from NASCAR would mean that they couldn't control who and how they penalize... which is why that will not ever happen during Brian France's lifetime.

Pretty chicken sh-- move on Hornaday's part for sure, but I don't think he'll be parked; I see probation. Harvick and Kyle are the only ones that I have seen parked over the years for consistent on track shenanigans and I don't think that has been shown by Ron. I could be wrong and I guess we'll find out Tuesday. And yes, good on Bubba.

The Rock has never disappointed me for entertainment. Ever. Bring it back!

**gomick** · 22 Apr 2013, 00:52 (Ref:3237631)

Is it worth to watch it?

After next week I have two weeks holiday so I am able to catch up.

MJ_N_09 · 21 May 2013, 20:37 (Ref:3251352)

This could finally be Crafton's year. The longest uninterrupted driver with starts, same team, and same sponsor (correct me if I'm wrong) in truck series' history. Thorsport's efforts may finally pay off after so long.

**gomick** · 22 May 2013, 10:47 (Ref:3251588)

Why did Johnny Sauter get docked 25 points?

MJ_N_09 · 24 May 2013, 19:15 (Ref:3252781)

Unapproved fuel cell after Kansas.

Camping World pondering series sponsorship beyond 2015: Camping World president and CEO Marcus Lemonis, whose title sponsorship of NASCAR's Truck Series runs through 2015, says he expects to make a decision on whether to extend his commitment by the end of this year. In part, the decision depends on the participation of an as-yet-unnamed company featured on "The Profit," the CNBC show on which Lemonis serves as both venture capitalist and mentor in turning around small businesses that seek his help. "Our deal goes through 2015--I think it was a six- or seven-year deal (actually seven)," Lemonis said Saturday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway during a press conference to promote the TV show. "But we are in talks, and one of the connections--it's kind of ironic--but one of the tipping points (is) whether Camping World will extend that deal or not& "In one of the episodes, there is an integration of NASCAR into one of the shows that you'll see. And having one of these particular companies be part of our extension will be kind of the tipping point of whether we extend or not." Lemonis also wants to reserve judgment until he sees whether the transition of SPEED to Fox Sports 1, a broader-based sports network, changes the level of visibility of the Camping World Truck Series. "I think the France family and Steve Phelps and all the folks (NASCAR president) Mike Helton--have done a fantastic job of taking Camping World to the next level," Lemonis said. "When it comes to the Truck Series, I think the bigger question that I have right now is 'What is the new SPEED/FoxSports network going to look like?' "Is it going to change the viewership? Are the ratings going to change? Is it going to be shuffled around? Because today on SPEED, the Camping World Truck Series is THE program (the Saturday night Truck race at Iowa). I want to just be sure that I'm not going to get shuffled to the bottom of the pack." (NASCAR Wire)(7-13-2013)
