Welcome to Season 2 of the FOFC Camping World Truck Series. If you would like to sign-up, head on over to our sign-up thread. FOFC Racing Sign-ups (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?t=90185)

The Truck Series is where the future stars of the FOFC Racing Series will get their start. Drivers that finish in Top 5 of the truck series point standings will get the opportunity to move up to the Sprint Cup Series if a spot is available. If the driver who finishes in the top 5's owner already has two drivers in the Cup Series, they will have the option to replace one of their Sprint Cup drivers with their Truck Series driver. Owners in the top 5 with no Cup drivers will get the first chance at moving up. Owners who already have one driver will have the opportunity to move up after owners with no drivers have taken their positions. Finishing in the top 5 does not guarantee a promotion, if the Cup drivers who finish in the bottom 5 only have 1 driver they will be demoted currently.

The Truck Series will not have playoffs like the Sprint Cup Series does. We will have 10 races in the Truck Series with the leader at the end of 10 races being crowned champion.

Make sure to also follow the Sprint Cup Series where the top drivers in the FOFC Racing Series race.

We will kick off Season 2 from Daytona on Friday.

[tarcone]

Could you change Kinnicks sponsor to GMT Games?

[PackerFanatic]

After a few year hiatus, Andrew Foley finally getting back into the mix!

[cmp]

The trucks are hitting the track for practice as they get ready for the Nextera Energy Resources 250 from Daytona this afternoon.

[cmp]

A little bit of bad news, I haven't been able to get the race in yet and I'm not sure how time will be for me the rest of the day. Things got a bit busier than I expected so we may have to push the race back until Monday unless I find some time here soon.

Daytona, FL - Today's start was a bit delayed by some brief rain showers we had over the track early on the day, but the rain clouds subsided and allowed us to get in some terrific racing. Heading into the day, there were a million storylines to talk about. How would former Cup drivers Nile Kinnick, Billy Bushinhimer, Ricky Anderson Jr, and Kellen Killinger fare after their demotions? How would newcomer Andrew Foley run in his brand new #85 Google Ford? Who would be the driver to step up after Root, Letto, Kizer and Long moved up the Cup series?

As it always is at Daytona, it was anyone's race. The lead swapped hands 77 times in 100 laps. Coming to the end of the race it was Nile Kinnick who made the move to the lead with just over a lap to go and it looked like he hit the nitro at that point as his truck rocketed to the front and to a huge lead for Daytona. Kinnick was able to hold off Andrew Foley coming to the line to record the victory.

We have video from the race as well but won't be able to get that posted right away.

[HomerSimpson98]

100 laps of tight pack racing! THere should have been about 30 wrecks then :)

[PackerFanatic]

Cannot complain at all about that start. Top-10 qualifying, Top-5 finish in my first race back. Hope the 85 Google team can keep it up!!

[cmp]

We head to Texas today for the Winstar World Casino 400.

[cmp]

It was a great day for Hurricane Racing. Hurricane Racing features the #2 of Barrett Hays and the #3 of Brett Hawkins. Hawkins started on the pole and led 112 of the race's 167 laps. His car was virtually untouchable for the majority of the race and despite his car fading slightly at the end of the race he was able to take the checkered followed by his teammate Barrett Hays who finished 2nd, 0.68 seconds back.

Chris needs to step it up. Next race the 3rd Kizer, Andrew, will make his Truck Series debut taking over the #53 Truck that Will drove last year.

[tarcone]

Kinnick finishes in the top 10. Stays in first. Poor Rico is just struggling again. We may be looking for a new driver next year. Rico may go back to dirt tracks.

[PackerFanatic]

Sucks getting stuck in the middle of the pack with nowhere to go.

[msubball]

Bushinhimer, Wheeler and Diamond need to show something soon or they will all be replaced next year.

[cmp]

Tomorrow we will head to Myrtle Beach for the Myrtle Beach 200.

Good news! Looks like I have gotten everything figured out with my computer and we should be able to get going again tomorrow!

[cmp]

Chris Kizer started from the pole and dominated the first half of the race leading the first 99 laps. After the first pit stops though his car would fade to a 10th place finish. For the 2nd half of the race it was all Coy Duke as he led 81 laps and won by 3.12 seconds over Kellen Killinger.

Can't figure out a reason for BL's drop-off to this point. Interesting...

[Lord Letto]

[PackerFanatic]

At least Foley finished on the lead lap this time - still can't get out of the middle of the pack though.

Can I get J. R. Fitzpatrick & D. J. Kennington in both cars for Iowa if possible so Team Letto can do 1 Race together this year?

Definitely.

Nile Kinnick would like to jump into Talladega. Is that ok if I have 2 in the sprint cup already?

[Sublime 2]

Evander Hart for Chicagoland.

[britrock88]

BL Zebub in Charlotte, if it's okay to run 3 drivers for a race.

[Lord Letto]

BL Zebub in Charlotte, if it's okay to run 3 drivers for a race.
I'm sure it'll be OK, I got 1 driver in Sprint Cup and both my Truck Drivers are in for Iowa so all 3 can race there.

[cmp]

Yup not a problem at all. 3 drivers for those races is perfectly all right.

[PackerFanatic]

Andrew Foley will run Atlanta.

[cmp]

Once again it was a former Cup driver who found his way into victory lane this week as Kellen Killinger led 66 laps and took the win. He was followed by Max Gresham, Chris Kizer, Jackson Pace and Andrew Kizer.

All-Star Race

Segment #1

After the random draw it was Coy Duke sitting on the pole and Connor Root 2nd. Coy led the race's first lap before Root was able to make the pass and after that point there was no catching the #39 car. Root led the final 19 laps of Segment #1 to take the victory. His teammate Max Gresham was 2nd, Coy Duke 3rd, Brett Hawkins 4th and Bo Duke 5th. Impressive showing for Truck drivers as they grabbed the 2nd, 3rd and 4th spots.

Segment #2

Again, like Segment #1, one driver dominated the 20 laps of action. This time it was Jackson Pace who got the pole after the random draw and led all 20 laps of racing. It seems like everyone is laying back waiting for the final shootout. Benton Gale was 2nd followed by Dexter Jackson Sr., Connor Root and Mustafa Henderson.

Can D.J. Kennington have The 2nd Glen Spot if No one else wants it by the time of the Race?

Yeah if no one else claims in I'll put D.J. in that spot.

[cmp]

The truck drivers headed to the road course today for their only road race of the season. On the pole was Rico Herky who quickly lost the lead to Nile Kinnick who would lead only for 2 laps before he was passed by Bob Fulton who led for the next 5. From there it was Qwikshot Autotune who passed Bob to take the lead and looked like he was well on his way to victory. But with 4 laps left, the polesitter Herky finally made his way back to the front, passed Autotune and went on to victory.

[The Kizer]

Chris still has a shot at a promotion. Needs some good runs here coming up. Chris will take a spot at Bristol.

[cmp]

We will be heading to the Armory Superspeedway today for the Armory Digital 100.

[cmp]

As always with the Truck Series, they put on a show at the Armory Digital Superspeedway today. The lead swapped hands numerous times and it was all about putting yourself in the right spot as the laps wound down. Today Vance Duke was able to get himself in the right position and held off Chris Kizer and Landon Nicholson for the victory.

http://s13.postimg.org/uh7m8utbb/7ad.png

Kellen Killinger leads the points with 3 races left as he attempts to return to the Cup Series.

[PackerFanatic]

Very happy to see I got to the front for a short while in this win and finished off with my second straight top ten. It's been a tough go so far, but the Foley Racing Team has been making strides and we definitely hope to keep getting better into next year. Rumors abound, too, that a new driver might join the series next season! :)

[cmp]

Only two drivers led in today's Coors 200. Brett Hawkins led 99 laps on the day and took the victory over Dexter Jackson Jr. by 0.77. Jackson led 101 laps.

[PackerFanatic]

Just outside a top 5, but a big jump in the points standings. Need a good showing in the final two races!

[Lord Letto]

If Bristol still got a spot open, can JR Fitzpatrick take it unless someone else want's it?

[britrock88]

I will volunteer BL Zebub for Homestead if there aren't drivers that want to get their 1st Sprint race in there (it would be his 2nd).

[cmp]

Final two races will be next week.

[PackerFanatic]

Andrew Foley would be happy to to do the Homestead race if no other driver wants to do it (since I did one earlier as well).

[cmp]

Sounds good. If no one else that hasn't raced yet wants a spot Zebub and Foley will be racing Homestead.

[thmscrrn3]

I haven't posted for one of those races but if nobody else posts than you can have it. I feel if im struggling with truck circuit than why try the next level. Maybe it's just me....

[cmp]

The Pepsi 250 from Chicagoland has been run. Results coming soon.

Coy Duke dominated the second half of the Pepsi 250 to record his 2nd win of the season. Points leader Brett Hawkins had a solid 5th place finish as we head to the finale.

[cmp]

Tomorrow is Championship Friday! We'll have the final races for both the Truck Series and the Cup Series.

[cmp]

The Hurricane Racing teammates of Brett Hawkins and Barrett Hays came into the season finale at Homestead looking to put an exclamation mark on a great season. And they did just that dominating most of the day as Hays led 110 laps before losing the lead to Hawkins who led the final 9 laps of the race to secure the Season 2 Truck Series Championship.


http://s15.postimg.org/yaoiujaff/10_HOME.png

[cmp]

Brett Hawkins is your Season 2 Truck Series champion! He will now move up to the Cup Series for Season 4. Barrett Hays finished 2nd but will only be eligible for the Cup Series if he replaces Benton Gale. In 3rd was Coy Duke, he will only move up if he replaces Bo or Luke Duke. Rico Herky finished 4th but can only move up by replacing Hawk Grey or Chuck Long. The same for his teammate Nile Kinnick who finished 5th.

It looks like the Cup drivers lucked out this year as only 1 driver will be promoted to Cup. Kellen Killinger missed a promotion by only 1 point.

http://s22.postimg.org/wn0q3j16p/10_STAND.png

[Breeze]

Woo Hoo...nice driving boys...

Hays can stay in trucks. Gale is coming off back to back chase apparences.

[Lord Letto]

Quick Question, with only 1 Driver being promoted and no Demotions, what about the 2 open spots? I think that would still leave 1 open spot in the cup series, if I'm correct about that then I think it would be nice to see D. J. Kennington take one of the Open Spots considering he won the Cup Race at the Glen & Finished 43rd in points on top of all the Subs from the Truck Series.

[cmp]

Now is the time to get your stat changes in for Season 4. We will probably take the week off while everyone has time to make changes and then restart on Monday, August 17.
