Roush Fenway Racing Is Focused And Carrying Momentum To Milwaukee
TruckSeries.com Report

Roush Fenway Racing scored a series of firsts this past weekend at Michigan International Speedway. It was the team's first NASCAR Camping World Truck Series victory in 2009 and it was Colin Braun's first series victory in his career. The win also marked a milestone, 50 series wins, for owner Jack Roush.

"It takes three elements to win these races," Roush said. "It takes a great manufacturer like Ford Motor Company, it takes great technology like engineers and working in the wind tunnel, and it takes a great team and driver to put it all together. And we have that with this No. 6 team."

As the No. 6 team heads to Milwaukee, momentum and belief in their young driver should prove to continue their early success.

"Colin is a good driver now, and is going to be a great driver once he gets more experience and figures how to be able to prevail when he has the fastest truck and be able to get the most out of it when it is not as fast," Roush said. "But he is well on his way to being as good in this business as anybody has been."

Roush Fenway Racing has two wins at the Milwaukee Mile, in 1999 with Greg Biffle and 2000 with Kurt Busch.

Ron Hornaday Jr. Doing Double Duty This Weekend At Milwaukee

When you speak of "double-duty drivers," the first thing that comes to mind is NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers participating in the NASCAR Nationwide or Camping World Truck Series, but not this weekend.

On Friday, Ron Hornaday Jr. (No. 33 Copart Chevrolet) will make his 10th career NASCAR Camping World Truck Series start at Milwaukee.

In nine previous series starts, Hornaday has one win, seven top-five and nine top-10 finishes. He has led 199 laps and completed 100% of the laps.

Saturday, June 20, also will mark Ron Hornaday's 51st birthday. On his birthday in 1998, Hornaday won at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series after starting from the pole and leading 187 of 200 laps, driving for Dale Earnhardt Inc. (DEI). On this Saturday, the birthday boy looks to repeat his victory in '98 and score his fifth win in the NASCAR Nationwide Series.

It will be Hornaday's 10th career start in the NASCAR Nationwide Series at Milwaukee. In nine previous starts at the track, Hornaday has one win, three top-five and five top-10 finishes and has led 119 laps.

"Milwaukee is flat, and a lot like Phoenix," Hornaday said. "Down the front and back straightaways you are pretty much wide open on the gas then hard on the brakes getting into the corners.

"The turns aren't as narrow as Martinsville, they are more wide open so it is key to get a good arch to get down into them so you can quickly pick up the throttle and run hard down the straightaways."
