WTG Hornaday on your third championship. Too bad you're driving for
Harvic though.

Also great run for Justin Marks, coming worst to eighth. Congrats also
to Willie Allen for winning Rookie of the Year in an unsponsored truck.

WTG Benson!!!

Congrats to Hornaday even though I don't really like him.

King Hornaday wins the championship in his 200th start. Benson wins the
race in his and Toyota's 100th start.

There was a caution with 2 to go because a truck got sideways, but none
when Willie Allen spun on the last lap. Thankfully it didn't effect the
championship, but it costed Kyle Busch a win.

Yeah, a tough break for Skinner. I could hear Darrell Waltrip singing
"You Picked A Real Fine Time To Leave Me, Loose Wheel."

The last race for the #75 Spears Chevy as the team disbanded after the
season. Shame to see them go after being such a constant in the truck
series. From Bill Sedgwick to Kevin Harvick, Bobby Gill to David Starr,
Aric Almirola to Dennis Setzer, a lot of talent climbed into the cockpit
of the #75 Spears truck over the years.

Fitting that Hornaday won the title in the same race, he drove for them
in some of the original exhibiton races in 1994-95.

Were they the last original full time team left on the tour?

RaceFan_X, There is still a few original teams like Darrell Waltrip
Motorsports (DarWal Inc. in 1995), Roush Racing, and Circle Bar Racing,
and I believe that Billy Balley Racing fielded a truck back then too.

Still a total shame that the 75 team shut down.

Circle Bar didn't start until 1997, two years after the series did.
Darrell's team skipped most of the late 90s and early 2000s--they came
back with Toyota in 2004.

In my opinion, Benson deserved this win more than anyone. Wrecks or
mechanical problems took out his two teammates. A loose wheel took
Skinner out of championship contention and a late race wreck knocked
Jacques Villeneuve out of contention for his first career win.

In response to a previous post...
Roush was around in Trucks in 1995 but only in a limited capacity (6
races) starting after the halfway mark of the season. They didn't move
to full time until 1996 with Joe Ruttman

Similar for DW's team, they weren't full time until 1996 with Bill
Sedwick although DW did run his own truck for a few races in 1995.

Billy Ballew'a team started up in 1996 (and even back then they couldn't
keep a driver for more than 10 races)

Looks like my original comment was correct, while some teams have been
around since near the start of the Truck series the end of the Spears
#75 was the end of the original full-time teams

Wimmer started as basically a favor to Harvick as Hornaday needed a
certain amount of positions to lock up the championship. Wimmer made the
field and basically rode around all night.
