You don’t have to dig to pick a favorite for Friday night’s Bully Hill 200 at Nashville Superspeedway. Three have won NASCAR Camping World Truck titles. The fourth is the hottest driver across NASCAR’s three national series.
• Ron Hornaday Jr. won the race in 2009, which was his record-setting fifth consecutive NCWTS victory.
• Todd Bodine is the 1.333-mile concrete oval’s latest winner, in August of last season.
• Travis Kvapil won in 2007 driving for Roush Fenway Racing.
• Kyle Busch won last spring’s Bully Hills Vineyards 200 and already has posted six NASCAR national series victories in 2011. Busch, who’ll be doing double duty this weekend, won the NASCAR Nationwide Series summer race in 2009.
Hornaday and Busch can call themselves kings of concrete having won NCWTS races on all three concrete-surfaced tracks: Nashville, Bristol Motor Speedway and Dover International Speedway.
The series’ three championship leaders – Johnny Sauter, Matt Crafton and Timothy Peters – have yet to win at Nashville. Peters has finished fourth in his last three Nashville starts while Sauter owns a pair of runner-up finishes in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. David Reutimann is the only driver to score his first NCWTS victory at the track.
