Jimmy Smith, appropriately as it turned out, was cited as the only owner to have competed in every NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race prior to the green flag dropping on the June 21, 2003 O’Reilly 200 at Memphis Motorsports Park.

When the series’ 200th race ended nearly two hours later, it was Ultra Motorsports’ Smith and his driver Ted Musgrave accepting the accolades in Victory Lane.

Musgrave, who started his No. 1 Team Mopar Dodge on the inside of the third row, battled five other drivers in an extremely competitive race over the. 75-mile oval.

Musgrave ultimately led 102 of the 200 laps, taking the lead for good at lap 187 from Bud Pole winner Jon Wood, who earlier set at one-lap qualifying record of 86.097 mph. The final top three – Musgrave, Travis Kvapil and Dennis Setzer – will suit up for next week’s 300th race at Dover International Speedway as will at least six other drivers who participated in race No. 200.
