Notes: Both the NASCAR Busch Series and Craftsman Truck Series will run the same tire codes this weekend, though the Busch Series tires will be branded "Goodyear Eagle," while the Craftsman Truck tires will be branded "Goodyear Wrangler" . . . this is Goodyear's intermediate/flat track tire setup, and has been run by major NASCAR teams at Phoenix and Richmond earlier this season . . . Busch and Nextel Cup Series teams will also run this combination of left- and right-side tires at New Hampshire next weekend . . . this is the first time Goodyear has brought this tire setup for Busch and Craftsman Truck Series teams to run at Milwaukee . . . as on most NASCAR ovals one mile or less in length, teams will not run inner liners in their tires at Milwaukee.(6-21-2007)

Truck Series News & Notes - Toyota Tundra Milwaukee 200
Crawford, Starr pairing finally hitting on all 16 cylinders: For all of his lengthy racing career, Rick Crawford (#14 Power Stroke Diesel by Int'l Ford) has reveled in being a "lone wolf" competitor. In 2007, however, his Circle Bar Racing team expanded to a pair of entries adding veteran David Starr (#10 Int'l/MaxxForce Ford) to the stable. The change hardly affected Crawford, whose eight top-10 finishes place the Alabama native solidly among the top five championship contenders. Getting the second truck up to speed was a bit more of a challenge but the results are beginning to show as the season nears its mid-point. Crawford and Starr recently finished third and fifth at Texas Motor Speedway marking the first time the drivers snagged simultaneous top-five finishes.

Truckin' to Milwaukee: Beer, Brats and The Historic Mile: six natives of the Badger State are expected to be in the field for Friday night's 13th annual Toyota Tundra Milwaukee 200. One of them - Ted Musgrave (#9 Team ASE Racing Toyota) - is the track's only two-time winner having visited Victory Lane in 2001 and 2004. Kelly Bires (#21 Wood Bros./JTG Ford); Travis Kvapil (#6 K&N Engineering Ford); Ryan Mathews (#36 Bill Davis Racing Toyota); Tim Sauter (#07 Lester Buildings Chevy) and Josh Wise (#00 Aaron's Lucky Dog Toyota) also will compete.

Veteran Crew Chief Mike Beam, Travis Kvapil back on top in Michigan: Mike Beam has been in NASCAR long enough to know that peaks frequently are followed by valleys - and not always those of your own making. Beam, a longtime crew chief, directed Roush Fenway Racing's Mark Martin to six victories in 2006 and nearly pulled off an owner championship with multiple drivers. The #6 K&N Engineering Ford team finished second, just 30 points behind Germain Motorsports and champion Todd Bodine (#30 Lumber Liquidators Toyota). The current season hasn't been so kind - at least until last Saturday when Travis Kvapil cashed in at Michigan Int'l Speedway after a ferocious, final-laps battle with Kyle Busch (#51 Flanders Beef Patties Chevy). Kvapil's previous best finishes had been a pair of thirds, including Daytona, a race he lost in the final few yards. The team endured a five-race stretch in which it failed to finish higher than 13th. Kvapil became the second Roush Fenway driver to score multiple victories at MIS, adding to his 2004 win for Toyota. Greg Biffle won back-to-back in 1999-2000. The win was Roush Fenway's 45th.

Etc:
Terry Cook (#59 Harris Trucking Dodge) celebrated his 250th start with a solid 11th-place finish in the Michigan 200. Cook and crew chief Danny Rollins have made the Martinsville, Va.-based squad a contending team with Cook's latest performance moving HT Motorsports to within 15 points of the top 10.

Standings leader Mike Skinner (#5 Toyota Tundra Toyota) stayed perfect by leading his 10th race of the 2007 season. The 1995 series champion has led 535 laps/536.076 miles in building a 113-point lead over Ron Hornaday Jr. (#33 Camping World Chevy), the Michigan 200's 10th-place finisher. Skinner also posted his eighth top-five and 10th top-10 finish.

The Milwaukee Mile, host of this Friday night's Toyota Tundra Milwaukee 200, is one of just four tracks to have scheduled the series in all 13 seasons of its existence. The others are Martinsville Speedway, O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis and Phoenix Int'l Raceway. Two drivers have won at least once at each track: Skinner and Jack Sprague (#60 Con-way Freight Toyota).

Former NASCAR Grand National Division, West Series champion Scott Lynch enters this week's race with a new team owned by his father, James Lynch. Veteran west coast crew chief Larry Prior will oversee preparation of the #29 Jasper Engines & Transmission Dodge. Lynch has finished 12th twice in a dozen series starts.

Ford joins Toyota, Chevy as multiple winners:
Travis Kvapil's Michigan victory makes Ford the third different manufacturer to score multiple wins in 2007. Toyota, which opened the season with four consecutive wins, has been shut out since Mike Skinner's victory at Martinsville Speedway on March 31. Since then, Chevy has collected three wins and Ford has won twice. Toyota continues to lead the Manufacturers' Championship by 10 points over Chevy with Ford another four back. Dodge's "mini streak" of three races with top-10 finishes ended at Michigan. Bobby Labonte (#4 Open Joist Dodge) ran as high as ninth but faded over the final 20 laps to finish 17th.

Manufacturers' Championship:
Toyota, 71
Chevy, 61
Ford, 57
Dodge, 31

In the loop:
Hornaday poised to gain ground at Milwaukee: at 113 points behind leader Mike Skinner, Ron Hornaday Jr. sits in striking distance. Now, the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series heads to The Milwaukee Mile, which is more good news for Hornaday. If he can continue his past success, he could gain some ground on the thus-far dominant Skinner. In seven starts at Milwaukee, Hornaday has finished outside the top five only once - and that was a seventh-place finish in 1999. He won there in 1997 and has finished fourth and third the past two years. His Loop Data stats are likewise impressive. Over the past two years, Hornaday has the top Driver Rating at Milwaukee at 126.0, the second-best Average Running Position (3.243), 37 Fastest Laps Run (fourth-most) and 400 Laps in the Top 15, which makes him the only driver to run every lap in the Top 15 over the past two years.

Also look for Jack Sprague to run up front. Sprague finished second there in 2005 and fourth in 2006, and racked up impressive stats in the process. Sprague has the second-best Driver Rating (124.5), the top Average Running Position (2.675), the second-most Fastest Laps Run (53), and the second-most Laps in the top 15 (396).

Skinner, on the other hand, has struggled in recent years at Milwaukee. With finishes of 16th and 11th over the past two year, Skinner has just the 18th-ranked Driver Rating at 87.5.

Raybestos Rookie of the Year standings:
Leader Aaron Fike (#1 RFMS/Red Horse Racing Toyota), stands eighth in the series standings in addition to adding to his Raybestos Rookie lead. Fike entered last weekend's 10th race of the season ranked ninth overall and qualified 12th. Point standings are: Aaron Fike, 112; Tim Sauter, 79; Willie Allen, 79; Blake Bjorklund, 75; Joey Clanton, 59; Tyler Walker, 51; Kelly Bires, 44; Jason White, 40; Kevin Hamlin, 18; Casey Kingsland, 5; Brian Sockwell, 1.

Up Next: O'Reilly 200:
The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series makes its annual pilgrimage to Memphis Motorsports Park and the home of the blues - Beale Street - not to mention Graceland, the home of The King, Elvis Pressley. Saturday night's O'Reilly 200 is the 10th series race to be hosted by the .75-mile oval and first of three NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series events in the state of Tennessee in 2007. Three-time series champion Jack Sprague won last year's O'Reilly 200 after qualifying on the Bud Pole. Sprague, who also won in 2000, is the only competitor to visit Victory Lane in the nine previous events at Memphis Motorsports Park.(NASCAR Media)(6-18-2007)
