Flat Fixes Phoenix for Circle Bar Team
TruckSeries.com Report Printer Version 

  Discuss



The month of November for the Circle Bar Truck Corral Team is reminiscent of the song from Hee Haw, "If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all, gloom despair and agony on me." Two blown right fronts moved the team from championship contender to trying to hang on to a top 10 spot in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series standings.

Coming off a fast truck in Texas that had a blown right front and ended their night early, the team was looking to rebound in the Casino Arizona 150. The Circle Bar Ford F-150 was solid off the trailer and lined up in the 11th position. After having shaken down the truck in the first few laps, the team was ready to start moving forward. However, on lap 33 the right front blew and the Ford F-150 hit the fence. Driver, Rick Crawford, managed to get his wounded machine back to pit road but the damage was too much to fix in the pit area. The team took their Circle Bar machine to the garage are and in their never say die attitude repaired the Ford F-150 and returned it to the racetrack 66 laps down. The Circle Bar team finished 34th their worst finish in 47 races and dropped from 5th to 9th in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Standings. After the last few weeks of hard luck the team has turned over some of it's low mileage 1 owner trucks to Juniors Used Car Sales, BR549.
