Hornaday WIns The NASCAR Truck Melee

While Ron Hornaday Jr. overcame the adversity of the week regarding his health situations, he went on the win the Camping World 200 at Loudon.

He led Johnny Benson, Travis Kvapil, Erik Darnell and Rick Crawform across the start / finish line.

The fight for the win was the small event as the bigger event was the fight that erupted in the pits between David Starr and Todd Bodine's crew.

Results

David Starr was the star of 3 different yellow flags, all for the same reason: Getting in on the low line and having his truck push up into the outside line, spinning the other truck. At least he's consistent.

The last driver this happened to was Todd Bodine with 7 laps to go. Bodine's crew came out to "chat" with Starr, and according to SPEED, they said Bodine's crew pulled Starr out of his truck, though I can't actually imagine that happening, and the replay included shows what looks like Starr getting out himself...

Todd Bodine stepped away from it all watched. He eventually got together with David Starr and they chatted. Bodine said he likes Starr, and he's a great guy, but when he gets a good truck, he doesn't know when to not push it. We saw that in the 3 cautions he caused. Todd Bodine conducted himself incredibly well. Kudos.

In the end, Starr was summoned to the principals office, or the NASCAR hauler.
