Indianapolis Raceway Park

[RaceFanStan]

Indianapolis Raceway Park is a 0.686 mile short-track oval with 12 degree banking in turns.
Indianapolis Raceway Park is a place where the drivers definitely don't play nice together.
IRP is a track where the stockcars & racetrucks usually bump and grind all race long. :eek:

The Craftsman Truck Series teams will tangle @ Indianapolis Raceway Park Friday night.
The Power Stroke Diesel 200 is the Craftsman Truck Series race #14 of 25 this season.
Friday night's short-track battle @ IRP could shuffle the CTS points standings again. :eek:

One driver to watch on Friday night would be Ron Hornaday Jr.
Ron Hornaday Jr is the defending 2007 Craftsman Truck Series champion & the defending 2007 IRP race winner.
Hornaday, currently 3rd in CTS points standings & only trails Truck Series pointsleader Johnny Benson Jr by just 5 points.
Hornaday led 90 laps last year & his #33 Camping World Chevrolet Silverado could be tough to beat Friday night.
Ron Hornaday Jr has finished no worse than 3rd in the last 3 CTS races @ IRP.

I look forward to Friday night's announcement of "Gentlemen, Start Your Engines !" :D :up:

Friday, July 25th
8:00 PM ~ SPEED ~ Craftsman Truck Series Race 14
Power Stroke Diesel 200 @ Indianapolis Raceway Park ~ LIVE

NASCAR attempted to squelch the Toyotas in the Nationwide Series ...

Kyle Busch jumped in his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota & said "in your face NASCAR !"
