(VPS Motorimages Photo) Based on his 2006 finish, Johnny Benson in his No. 23 Toyota Certified Used Vehicles Toyota entered the Toyota Tundra 200 as the pre-race favorite. Like so many before him in the series, Benson came away disappointed. He not only failed to win, but exited early due to an accident and finished 30th. Travis Kvapil, driving the No. 6 K&N Filters Ford, became Nashville Superspeedway's seventh consecutive different winner as the 1.333-mile track continued as one of 10 series tracks without a repeat winner. Homestead-Miami Speedway and New Hampshire International Speedway have held 11 races since 1996 without the same driver hoisting the winner's trophy. Each looks for a 12th different winner later this year. NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Current Tracks Without Repeat Winner
Winners 11 11 8 8 8 7 7 6 3 1 Nashville is one of seven tracks adding a new winner in 2007. Mike Skinner and his No. 5 Toyota Tundra Toyota team became Atlanta Motor Speedway's sixth different winner in March. The track hosts its seventh race in October. SOURCE: NASCAR Communications
