Talladega, AL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Series: NASCAR Camping World Truck. Date:
Saturday, October 22. Race: Coca-Cola 250. Site: Talladega Superspeedway.
Track: 2.66-mile oval. Start time: 4:00 p.m. (et). Laps: 94. Miles: 250.04.
2010 winner: Kyle Busch. Television: Speed. Radio: Motor Racing Network (MRN)

After winning the last two races, Ron Hornaday Jr. is right back in contention
for the Camping World Truck Series championship.
What a remarkable comeback the 53-year-old Hornaday has made in the past
couple of months. Following his 24th-place finish in August at Bristol,
Hornaday trailed then-leader Johnny Sauter by 69 points.
Hornaday, a record four-time series champion, cut his 42-point deficit in half
after taking the checkered flag at Las Vegas for the first time in his career
this past Saturday. Leader Austin Dillon and James Buescher, who ranked second
in points heading into Las Vegas, crashed at separate times during the race.
With four races to go, Dillon holds just a five-point lead over Sauter and a
seven-point advantage over Buescher. Hornaday is 21 down, while Timothy Peters
trails by 25.
The series moves on to Talladega Superspeedway, where Hornaday has yet to win.
"With four races to go, Talladega is a track where we will just have to hold
our breath all weekend and hope we don't get caught in the big one," he said.
"We are in the midst of this championship battle and would really like to make
it out of Talladega with momentum."
This will be the third race in a row that Hornaday drives the No.2 Chevrolet
for Kevin Harvick Inc. Team owners Kevin and DeLana Harvick moved Hornaday
from the No.33 to the No.2, since that truck is presently leading in the
series' owner point standings. Crew chief Bruce Cook will remain with Hornaday
at least for Talladega.
Cale Gale drove KHI's No.33 at Las Vegas, but Nationwide Series regular Mike
Wallace is taking over driving duties this weekend.
"I am very excited about the chance to race for KHI, especially when I'm going
to be racing a truck that I know has an opportunity to win the race," Wallace
said. "I've won at Talladega before in the ARCA Series, and I'm excited to
have the opportunity to win again. Hornaday is back in the run for another
championship, so I think we'll be able to work together and help him along as
well and hopefully accomplish a sweep for KHI this weekend."
Kyle Busch is the only Sprint Cup Series regular competing in this race. Busch
has won the truck event at Talladega the previous two seasons. Last year, he
nipped Aric Almirola at the finish line by only 0.002 seconds, making it the
closest finish in series history.
Forty-one teams are on the preliminary entry list for the Coca-Cola 250.
