Hunt Edges Brownie In Atlanta
Three weeks ago, Jordan Hunt probably wasn't too excited about his 22nd place finish in the season opening race at Daytona. That finish would prove to be most useful in Atlanta since Jordan was battling it out with Thomas Brownie at the finish line. Both drivers had the winning set of picks by using the same exact drivers. The next deadline would go to current standings position and Jordan had the edge over Thomas who finished 28th at Daytona. Jordan was awarded the win which was his 2nd in the Truck series. His only other win came at this same track back in 2007. Jordan ends the league's third longest winless streak as he finally puts an end to a 76 race winless drought.
The winning set of picks included Ron Hornaday, Todd Bodine, Steve Wallace, Jason White, Kevin Harvick and segment driver Kyle Busch. That gave both Jordan and Thomas 408 points. Jordan was able to move all the way up to 2nd place, just 13 points out of the leader. Thomas moved up 21 spots to 7th place.
Finishing in third place, 8 points behind the top 2 finishers is rookie Scott Lionhouse. Scott finished 45th at Daytona but comes back with a nice finish this week. He is the largest mover of the week as he jumps up 27 spots to 18th place in the standings.
Finishing in 4th place is the one of the league's two most winningest drivers, Leon Baker. Leon gets gets his 4th op 5 of the season which is also the 15th of his career. Leon had a rought start to the season by finishing 51st at Daytona but has a nice comeback this week. He moves up 26 spots to 25th place, the 2nd largest gain this week.
Rounding out the top 5 this week is Fred Moore who finishes in 5th and moves up 15 spots to 4th place in the standings.
After only one week on top of the standings, Randal Webb is knocked back into a tie with Jordan Hunt for 2nd place. Joe Hicks now moves into the lead after finishing 11th this week. Joe will hang on to the top spot for at least 2 weeks until the league's next race, the Kroger 250 at Martinsville on March 27th.
Ron Hornaday is off to a tough start to the season after crashing out in the first 2 races.
