Husby Wins on His Roof @ Gateway!

Madison, IL -- Last Tuesday night the CASCOR THL Truck Series made its return to the Gateway International Raceway in Madison, IL. Last years winner Pete Engelmanas was absent from the race this year, which once again would allow for a new winner at the track.

Mike Husby and Curtis James led the field down to the green flag. Not only would they be the fastest two trucks of the night. But Husby and James would put on one of the best races in recent memory, swapping the lead numerous times throughout the event. Brent Sweet, Bertus De Jong, Austin LaPlante and Johnny Williams also took turns leading laps.

The race saw 30 lead changes between 5 drivers as well as 7 cautions for 25 laps. But nothing would prepare anyone for the final run to the checkered flag.

Mike Husby and Brent Sweet led the field down to the restart with 6 laps to go. Husby, Sweet and James would all duke it out for the victory, swapping the lead 2-3 times a lap. But on the final lap of the race going into turn three, Curtis James would make a last attempt at taking the lead. James would slide up into Husby off of turn 4, which sent both drivers sailing through the air. Husby ended up landing on top of Brent Sweet and slid across the start finish line in the lead on his roof.

Bertus De Jong finishes 2nd, Brent Sweet 3rd, Austin LaPlante 4th and Curtis James rounded out the top 5. Robert Hill (6th) and Johnny Williams (7th) rounded out the finishing order.

Next time the THL Truck Series hit the track was last night at the Irwindale Speedway. Stay tuned to find out what happened at Irwindale.

Engelmanas Wins Mountain Dew Southern 150!

Darlington, SC -- Last week the CASCOR SuperCup Series made its return to the track "Too Tough to Tame" Darlington Raceway. Jordan Robson was the defending race winner, but has not run a race in CASCOR this year and was nowhere to be found at the track on Monday night.

Husby Motorsports teammates Pete Engelmanas and Mike Husby took the top two spots in qualifying and led the field down to the green flag.

But the caution flew for the first time in turn two on lap 1 for a spin by Brent Sweet. The first restart of the night came on lap 5, but once again problems would bring the caution right back out again. This time for a multi-car accident that sent Mike Husby flipping over in turn one. All drivers involved, except for Mike Husby were able to continue on.

Five more cautions slowed the action throughout the remainder of the event, but once everything had settled down, the drivers were able to get a long 61 lap green flag run in, allowing for green flag pit stops to take place.

The last caution of the night flew on lap 87, when Curtis James got loose off of turn two. Which would set up a 20 lap run to the finish.

Pete Engelmanas and Andrew Hayes led the field back down to the green flag on lap 92. Engelmanas would hold on to win the Mountain Dew Southern 150. Julian Madore finishes 2nd once again, Andrew Hayes 3rd, Curtis James 4th and Bertus De Jong rounded out the top 5. Austin LaPlante finished 6th, Brent Sweet 7th, Brandon Wilkinson 8th and Mike Husby rounded out the finishing order in 9th.

Next time the SuperCup Series hit the track was at Texas Motor Speedway this past Monday. Stay tuned to see what happened in Texas!
