Ron Hornaday Jr.: Making History One Race At A Time

It is no doubt that Ron Hornaday Jr. (No. 33 Longhorn Chevrolet) continues to be one of the most dominant NASCAR Camping World Series drivers this season. His win last Friday at O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis was one for the record books. He became the first driver in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series to collect four consecutive wins, a feat that has been accomplished numerous times in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and only once by Sam Ard in the NASCAR Nationwide Series in 1983.

In 13 races this season, he already has five wins and has finished outside the top 10 only twice, at Dover in May and at Texas in June.

At age 51, Hornaday's fifth win also ties him with Harry Gant and Joe Ruttman for the most wins in the same season by a driver over the age of 50.

Looking to this weekend, Hornaday remains winless at Nashville, one of eight tracks at which he has yet to make it to Victory Lane. In four starts at the track, he has two top-five finishes including a runner-up in 2007. The only time he finished outside the top 15 was in 2006 when he was involved in an accident that ended his run before the scheduled 150 laps. Hornaday also has his eye on that Gibson guitar trophy.

"I've been so close to winning at Nashville," he said. "In 2007, we had the thing won but ended up missing it by just a little and finished second. I went by (artist) Sam Bass's studio a few weeks ago and he showed me his guitar collection. It was very impressive and I told him that I really wanted to win one of his specially- designed guitars."
