2007 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series


The 2007 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season was the twelfth season of the third highest stock car racing series in North America. Sanctioned by NASCAR, the season began on February 16, 2007 at Daytona International Speedway with the Chevy Silverado HD 250, and ended on November 16, 2007 with the Ford 200 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Ron Hornaday, Jr. of Kevin Harvick Incorporated was crowned champion.

The season schedule consisted of 25 races held at tracks across the United States.

Fox-owned Speed again covered the entire 2007 Truck Series season, except for two races on Fox.

Beginning this season, the trucks will be identical from the windshield to the rear of the truck. However, the noses will continue to be branded as the Chevrolet Silverado, Dodge Ram, Ford F-150, and Toyota Tundra.

This race was held February 16 at Daytona International Speedway. Jack Sprague won the pole and would win the race from the pole. On the final lap, Travis Kvapil, only a few yards short of taking the second consecutive victory at Daytona for the 6 truck, was passed by the Toyota Tundras of Sprague on the high side and Johnny Benson, who had given Sprague a bump, near (but not on) the apron in a three-wide finish reminiscent of the 2003 Daytona race which ironically Kvapil also lost.
