The CAT Rental Stores team collected its first win of the season at Memphis Motorsports Park, moving the team to the sixth position in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series point standings.  "We are really pleased at how we’ve done all weekend long. We really struggled last year here and we only finished 12th.This is definitely one of the tracks on the schedule that we marked as one we wanted to work on and try to do a lot better. We came with a whole different approach and a whole different set-up. We unloaded pretty good off the trailer and we just had to make a few adjustments."  Ultra Motorsports teammates Ted Musgrave in the No. 1 Mopar Dodge and Bud Pole winner Jason Leffler in the No. 2 Team ASE Dodge and defending race-winner Dennis Setzer in the No. 46 Axciom Chevrolet rounded out the top five.  Two of the key moments in the race came on pit sequences. On the first, Kvapil pitted a lap before most of the other lead lap trucks early in the race when his spotter, Doug Sigmon, radioed him that the backstretch pit entrance was open as soon as NASCAR made that call over its radio system.  Later in the event Setzer, who led 41 laps but used up his trick twice trying to come from behind and who was second behind Kvapil at the halfway point, missed pit entrance because of a miscommunication with his crew.  "Dennis Setzer had a really good truck and they kind of got messed up in the pits and got behind," Ren said. "That's where we would have been on the first pit stop if not for Doug's call."
