Up-and-coming Brian Ickler was the fastest in the final Happy Hour round of
practice for tomorrow's Lucas Oil 200 presented by SPEED on Mediacom NASCAR
Camping World Truck Series race at Iowa Speedway.
Ickler, who splits time in the No. 18 Kyle Busch Motorsports Toyota Tundra with
team owner Busch, lapped the 0.875-mile Iowa oval at 133.373 miles per hour,
enough to put him atop the speed charts. In two starts with the team so far this
season, Ickler has been impressive, finishing third at Martinsville and fourth
at Kansas.
Rookie Austin Dillon was second in the No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet,
which ran 133.170 mph. Next were the ThorSport Racing Chevys of Johnny Sauter
and Matt Crafton, with Aric Almirola in Billy Ballew's Toyota completing the top
five.
The second five was Justin Lofton, Stacy Compton, Todd Bodine, Ron Hornaday Jr.
and Mike Skinner.
Qualifying begins tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET. There is no live television coverage.
SPEED will televise Sunday's race live, starting with the "NASCAR Camping World
