Kevin Harvick pulled away from teammate Ron Hornaday Jr. on a restart with 19 laps to go to win his second consecutive truck series victory.

Brian Ickler ran third, with new points leader Timothy Peters fourth and Johnny Benson fifth.
Harvick chose the outside lane when he and Hornaday teamed up for a side-by-side restart on Lap 232, after contact from Hornaday turned the No. 13 Chevy of Johnny Sauter to cause the 11th and final caution of the race 10 laps earlier. An angry Sauter confronted Hornaday on pit road after the race.
“I don’t know if he got into the curb or checked up or whatever, but I got into him pretty good,” Hornaday said after the exchange. “It was a tough day. I hate to see that, but Johnny’s all mad, and that’s what truck racing’s all about.”
Harvick, working for the first time with new crew chief Butch Hylton, passed Peters for the lead on Lap 190 and held it the rest of the way. NASCAR
