TODD BODINE, No. 30 Germain.com Toyota Tundra, Germain Racing
Finishing Position: 3rd

Was your final pit stop the key to your third-place finish? “That’s one thing, all the Germain guys are strong in the pits. Every week they beat guys out and that’s what keeps us up front. We were free all day and right there at the end we got a little tight off. I couldn’t quite run with Ron (Hornaday Jr.) and Johnny (Sauter), they were a little fast with a little too much horsepower, but this Toyota was awesome. To overcome what we did today with getting a speeding penalty and then a flat tire under green putting us a lap down and to come back and finish third, that’s what this team is all about. We just never give up.”

Did you think you had a shot at the win when Ron Hornaday Jr. and Johnny Sauter made contact in the closing laps? “I actually couldn’t see it. (Mike Hillman) Junior told me that them clowns were up there racing each other hard so keep digging. That’s what we do. Unfortunately for us they straightened it out and kept going.”

BRIAN ICKLER, No. 18 Toyota Tundra, Kyle Busch Motorsports
Finishing Position: 4th

Was your truck being loose the key to your finish today at Kansas? “We were a little free. I’m real proud of the guys. They did a great job all day on pit road. I had a good run today for KBM (Kyle Busch Motorsports) and hopefully we can keep — just happy we can keep the 18 up there in points.”

JOHNNY BENSON, No. 15 Red Top Collector Car Auction Toyota Tundra, Billy Ballew Motorsports Finishing Position: 5th

How was your race? “We kind of stayed off pit road with old tires thinking that we’d get a caution at the end and have tires on everybody, but it went green so I really have to thank Cowboy (Kevin Starland, crew chief) and everybody at Billy Ballew Motorsports. It was a great car and have to thank Red Top Auto Auctions and their May 22 and 23 big auction there in Georgia.”

Are you happy with your finish? “Yeah, for what we had and from where we started off. We seemed to struggle. For some reason our Tundra wasn’t drafting as good as it needed to be. I was stalling out, I’m not sure why that was doing that. That made it tough, but those guys made a great call staying out on tires. That wasn’t our plan, but after I saw no one else was coming, we decided to finish it off. I was starting to get slow there at the end but I’m sure that everyone else was, too.”

ARIC ALMIROLA, No. 51 Graceway Pharmaceuticals/AKAwareness.com Toyota Tundra, Billy Ballew Motorsports Finishing
Position: 7th

What was your truck like after the rain delay? “I guess it would have kept raining now. We thought we were going to make some adjustments there on that pit stop and help us and we didn’t help us at all. It really hurt our truck. I don’t know, we made the wrong adjustment.”

MIKE SKINNER, No. 5 International Trucks/Monaco RV Toyota Tundra, Randy Moss Motorsports Finishing Position: 8th

How was your truck after the rain delay? “We really struggled all day. Our truck was just horribly loose and bouncing all over the place. We really struggled and when it rained, Gene (Nead, crew chief) and the guys, they got their heads together. According to him, he didn’t do that much but all of a sudden they fixed our truck and I think it was more with air pressure than anything else. Then the truck was too tight, which was okay, I could have raced like that. If we could have started the day like that, and been tunable, we could have definitely been a threat for the top-three.”

DAVID STARR, No. 81 PC Miler Navigator Toyota Tundra, Randy Moss Motorsports
Finishing Position: 10th

How was your race? “It wasn’t bad. Our PC Miler Navigator Zachry Toyota Tundra was okay. At times we were better. We struggled pretty much all day long. We were decent at times and struggled other times, all in all it was just an okay race. To come back and finish in the top-10 with how practice was, I’d say it was almost like a win for us because we were pretty bad in practice. It’s frustrating for me and (Doug) Wilcott (crew chief) and all the guys on the team trying to get this thing handled a little bit better. To come back from as bad as we were, not a bad finish — we messed up right there at the end. Once the track got back on the race track they had pit road back open and all my guys went down there ready for a pit stop and we went from eighth to 16th, I think that hurt us a lot. All in all, everybody did a good job and when you start complaining about top-10s, that’s sad so I’m not going to complain. It’s just not what we were looking for, we were looking for a lot better. Not bad, good day for everybody.”

JUSTIN LOFTON, No. 7 VisitPit.com Toyota Tundra, Red Horse Racing
Finishing Position: 13th

How was your race? “Our race was good. At first we were hoping for day light or sunlight and then we got the sun to come out and now we were kind of wishing it hadn’t rained. When the sun came out, we made a couple of adjustments to try to get some speed out of the truck, which we’ve been looking for all weekend and then we went backwards. We made it looser — it just went backwards. It is what it is — worse racing term there is. I’m proud of the guys on the No. 7 Toyota Tundra, they did a great job all weekend. We had three solid stops, we have a truck that’s in one piece. We might have finished one lap down, but the leader was right in front of me. It’s a big improvement for us in our season, getting some momentum going. We’ll go on to Dover and we’ll let ‘er rip.”

Timothy Peters

Starting from the fifth spot, Peters was charging to the front but trouble on the first pit stop marred him back in the field. Clawing his way to the front, Peters exercised patiently aggressive driving to eventually take the lead. Unable to hold off hard charging competitors, Peters battled hard to put himself in the fourth position when the checkered flag fell. He earned his third top-10 and second top-five finish of the season. Peters also reclaimed the lead in the series driver point standings by a margin of 59 points.

The #17 Red Horse Racing team unloaded the same truck Peters drove to Victory Lane at Martinsville Speedway last fall. Fast right from the first laps during practice, Peters was very happy with the way his Toyota Tundra was driving. Final practice was cut short by rain showers but the #17 Strutmasters.com Tundra was third quick overall. The rain persisted all afternoon and rained out qualifying. The trucks were lined up by 2009 owner’s points putting Peters in the fifth spot for the start of the Kroger 250.

The green flag dropped just after 2:00pm on Saturday afternoon under sunny skies. Peters started fifth but in just one lap had moved his way to the third position. The caution came out on lap 26 and Peters told his crew his Strutmasters.com machine was tight in the center of the turns but was rolling through the corners very well. Opting to stay out, Peters restarted third on lap 32.

Getting a great restart, Peters was able to sneak by the second place truck and claim the position on lap 32. 15 laps later the condition of the #17 seemed to change drastically. Where it was once tight, Peters was reporting that it was very loose. He slipped back to the fourth spot and told the team he might have a tire going down on lap 57. With all the tires still up, Peters just held on and waited for the first pit stop.

That chance came on lap 73 when the caution came out again. Reporting a very loose truck, Peters brought his Tundra to pit road for work on lap 75. Taking four fresh tires and fuel, he also picked up air pressure and track bar adjustments. Trouble with the jack on the right side delayed the pit stop and cost Peters several positions. He lined up 16th for the restart on lap 80.

By lap 82, Peters had worked his way to the 14th spot. Another caution came out on lap 84 and he reported the truck was a little snug. Restarting 14th, he moved into the 13th spot before another quick caution on lap 91. Still saying the truck was too tight; crew chief Jeff Hensley told his driver it might be the result of a tight set of tires. Unable to make much progress under green, Peters was relieved to see another caution on lap 112.

Hensley called his driver to pit road on lap 114 for four fresh tires, fuel and another round of adjustments. Making additional track bar and air pressure adjustments, Hensley was sure the truck would be better under the next green flag run. Off pit sequence with most of the other trucks, Peters restarted 17th.

The #17 quickly regained the 14th spot and continued his forward march to the 11th position by lap 126. A caution on lap 133 brought most of the trucks to pit road and Peters stayed out. He gained plenty of track position and restarted from the second spot on lap 139.

Peters ran second and was studying the leader to find his weak spot. After another caution on lap 144, the field restarted on lap 150 and Peters got just the opportunity he was looking for. He was able to get by the leader and take the lead for himself on lap 150. Leading the way for 28 laps, Peters was disappointed to see another yellow flag on lap 178. Kevin Harvick would line up beside him with fresher tires and a very strong truck. Peters was able to hold Harvick off on the restart and continued to lead the way until Harvick squeezed by him on lap 190.

Settling into the second spot, Peters was saving his truck so he would have something left in the closing laps of the race. Another caution came out on lap 198. Peters stayed out and restarted from the second spot but got pinched up top on the restart and the third and fourth place trucks were able to get by him before he could drop to the inside line. Running fifth, two trucks right in front of Peters wrecked and the #17 narrowly got by without any damage. The wounded trucks hit pit road and Peters took the third spot for the restart on lap 231.

With less than 20 laps remaining, patience was running thin and tempers were flaring up. During the restart the fourth place truck pushed Peters up the race track and almost spun him out. The Strutmasters.com Tundra held steady but slipped back one spot. While Peters was gathering back his momentum, the fifth place truck tried the same move but Peters wasn’t giving in. For two laps the two trucks raced door to door until Peters was able to clear him and resume the fourth spot. He was able to hold onto the position for the final 15 laps and claim a fourth place finish at his home track. The #17 team earned its third consecutive top-10 finish and took back the point lead in the series driver point standings.

Timothy Peters wins the Kroger 200 at Martinsville Speedway on October 24, 2009

TIMOTHY PETERS QUICK FACTS

Martinsville Speedway

Kroger 250

March 27, 2010

• Peters’ Returns to His Home Track… Timothy Peters will be able to sleep in his own bed during this race weekend. The Danville, VA resident lives just 20 miles from the famed Martinsville Speedway. In part because of its close proximity, and in part because of his success on the paperclip shaped short track over the years, Martinsville is Peters’ favorite race track. Last fall Peters made some personal history by earning his first NASCAR win in front of the hometown crowd. He returns this weekend with the hope of back to back celebrations in Victory Lane.

• Peters at Martinsville…There is no other track on the Camping World Truck Series schedule where Timothy Peters has more experience than Martinsville Speedway. The Kroger 250 will mark Peters’ ninth start on the .526-mile oval. In eight previous events, he started inside the top-10 five times and earned four top-10 finishes, including his win in October 2009. Peters knows how to lead the way at Martinsville; in two of those races, he led 130 laps combined.

• Hensley Right At Home In Martinsville…Crew chief, Jeff Hensley calls Martinsville, Virginia his home town as well. Living in a town just five miles from the track, Hensley commutes to the Red Horse Racing shop in Mooresville, NC on week days. The commute will be shorter this week with the series racing just minutes from home. Hensley has seen his own share of success at Martinsville Speedway over the years. He has two Truck Series wins and two Nationwide Series wins already under his belt but admits it never hurts to have one more.

• Tight Points Battle Early In The Season…. Heading into Martinsville, Peters sits second in the Camping World  Truck Series point standings. Leading the points after Daytona, Peters dropped just one spot to second after Atlanta. He now sits just four points behind the leader and has a margin of 41 points between himself and the third place driver.

• Strutmasters Back For Martinsville… Strutmasters.com adorned the hood last fall when Peters took the #17 to Victory Lane at Martinsville Speedway and they are back on board for the Kroger 250 this weekend. Strutmasters was born in owner Chip Lofton’s converted dairy barn in 1999. It provides consumers an affordable alternative to expensive and problematic air ride suspension systems found on luxury vehicles. The company ships suspension conversion kits to thousands of auto repair shops, parts stores and dealers across North America. Retail customers can order by visiting the Strutmasters.com website.

• Crescent Tools On Board… The Crescent Tools logo will adorn the #17 Toyota Tundra as an associate sponsor for the entire 2010 season. The Crescent brand product line now consists not only of adjustable wrenches, but also a wide selection of other tools. These include, several styles of pliers, ratcheting wrenches, screwdrivers, and tool sets. One of the most recent examples of Crescent innovation is the new RapidSlide™ adjustable wrench.

Timothy Peters on racing at Martinsville Speedway “I love racing at Martinsville. Coming off a win there in the fall, we are excited to get back and see if we can repeat. We tested at the Motor Mile and feel really good about what we learned there. I will be piloting the same truck I had here in the fall and feel good about our chances this weekend.”

Crew Chief Jeff Hensley on Martinsville Speedway “The race at your home track is always one you want to win. Timothy is really good here and after testing this truck a couple times, I’m confident we will have a strong truck for the race. I’ve had wins at Martinsville before but I would love to get our #17 Tundra back in Victory Lane and keep the momentum we started at the first race rolling throughout the season.”

Equipment Information Timothy Peters will compete with chassis #137 in the Kroger 250 at Martinsville Speedway. This is the same chassis Peters was driving when he earned his first career win at Martinsville last fall.

No. 17 Strutmasters.com Toyota Tundra

The No. 17 Strutmasters.com team used two practice sessions on Thursday evening to make sure their truck was the one to beat on Friday night. Peters was fastest in first practice and backed up those same speeds in the final practice session. Peters put his No. 17 Tundra in the sixth starting spot for the Ford 200, the final race of the 2009 season.

With only one opportunity left to earn another trip to Victory Lane, Peters was on a mission when the green flag dropped under the lights at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

After running just five laps, Peters reported that his Tundra was a little too free all the way through the corner and that he was unable to run the bottom groove of the race track. Peters grabbed the fifth spot on lap 30 and then the first caution of the night came out on lap 32. Peters told his crew chief Chad Kendrick that the truck had not gotten any better. He headed for pit road on lap 33 for four fresh tires and an air pressure adjustment. He returned the following lap for fuel and a track bar adjustment to tighten up the truck.

Timothy Peters

The No. 17 Strutmasters.com Tundra lost one position after the restart and Peters fell to the eighth spot. Another caution came out on lap 37 but Kendrick told him to stay out. Peters reported that his truck really wasn’t much better after the adjustments. After the restart, Peters was able to get by the sixth and fifth place trucks to claim the spots for himself. Another caution came out on lap 58 and Peters told Kendrick his truck was still pretty loose. The No. 17 headed for pit road once again on lap 59 for two right side tires only. Peters returned the following lap for fuel, track bar, and wedge adjustments. He restarted seventh.

The gamble with two tires paid off and Peters was on the move. He passed three trucks in one lap to take over the fourth spot on lap 66. Just three laps later, he moved up to third. Peters followed the second place truck for several laps to see where his weaknesses were. Peters stalked him until he could compete the pass and took over the second spot on lap 82. Nearing the fuel window, other trucks began making their green flag pit stops on lap 113, including the leader. When he hit pit road, Peters assumed the lead. The No. 17 led for four laps and then headed to pit road for a splash of gas. Peters merged back on the track in the seventh spot but quickly regained the second position on lap 124.

Peters continued to run faster lap times than the leader, inching his way closer with each lap. With five laps to go, Peters was still second but closer than ever to reaching the leader. The caution flag flew on lap 127 setting the field up for a green, white, checkered finish. The leader hit pit road under the caution but Peters opted to stay out. That gave him the lead for the restart but he knew it would be tough to hold off trucks with fresh tires. Geared up for a wild finish, Peters took the green flag and tried to keep everyone else in his mirror. The trucks on newer tires were able to get by him but not without a fight. Peters held on for two laps to bring home a fourth place finish for the No. 17 Strutmasters.com team. Proud of their accomplishments this season, it was a perfect end to such a successful year.

Finishing Position: 4th

Are you happy with the way you ended your 2009 season tonight?

“What a way to end a year with this Strutmasters.com Red Horse Racing Toyota Tundra. It’s just awesome to end a year on this note right here. We looked to stay out and we didn’t have anything to lose. We were gambling to see if we could get us another victory but I tried to get the tires as clean as I could and I spun them a little bit. A rookie mistake on my part. I’ve got to thank Chad Kendrick (crew chief) and everybody on this team. They do a great job. From where we started at Daytona not knowing if we could make it past Martinsville. Tom DeLoach (Red Horse Racing, team owner) gave me an awesome opportunity to be here. Strustmasters.com, Toyota, Toyota, Toyota — I can’t thank those guys enough. I’m
looking forward to next season.”

How did your truck handle during the race?

“It was good for us. Our Strutmasters.com Red Horse Racing Toyota Tundra was good right off the lift gate. We made a gamble there at the end to stay out thinking some people would stay out with us but everybody came in. Chad Kendrick (crew chief) did a great job. The whole team — considering where we started at in Daytona not knowing that I could make it past Martinsville. I don’t know where we ended up in points but we had a good finish and got us a win this year.”

Timothy Peters (Photo Credit: John Harrelson/Getty Images for NASCAR)

“They had fresh tires. Everybody came down pit road and we were just the lonely sole out there. But all in all it was a
good day. I’m just ecstatic. When we joined Red Horse Racing we were 19th in drivers points and I think we ended up
around seventh. It’s been an awesome year and I’m ready to go to Daytona.”

What happened on the final restart?

“When you race with these guys you learn a lot and (Kevin) Harvick is the best of the best. I cleaned my tires off but
evidentially it wasn’t enough. I made a rookie mistake and spun them too much, but he had new tires and was going to go
by us in turn one anyway.”

Todd Bodine

Finishing Position: 5th

What happened from your viewpoint on the ‘green-white-checkered’ finish?

“The truck series usually is pretty crazy with the green-white-checkered. Before the caution came out we had the fastest
truck on the track. We were just so far back, we were running seventh, so we decided to come in, put two tires on and gain
a little track position. We pumped the right front tire up a little too high and it pushed too much in the last two laps. We
still gained two spots. Copart and everybody, I really appreciate what they’ve done for us this year in getting us through the
year with their sponsorship. It’s typical Germain Racing — we just never give up. We started the season with a win at
Daytona with no sponsor on the truck and we made it through the season with the help of Copart, Ventrillo and Lumber
Liquidators. It was a tough year, but we got through.”

What were you adjusting in your truck when you lifted the hood halfway through the race?

“The first set of tires, we corded the inside pretty bad. I think it was really the right call to come in and adjust it so we
didn’t blow it out. We didn’t need to finish in the back – we needed to keep the points up to finish fourth in points. It really
didn’t help it drive any better, but it definitely saved the tire and kept us in front of Johnny (Sauter) for fourth in points.”

No. 5 Exide Batteries Toyota Tundra

Finishing Position: 6th

What happened from your viewpoint on the ‘green-white-checkered’ finish?

“That was crazy and that cost us a spot right there. I didn’t know if I was supposed to come on pit road or not. Just had a
lot of confusion going on with the radio right there. We had about a fourth or fifth-place truck and we lost a couple spots
right there at the end. We’ve got a good race team and we’ve got a lot to build on. I’m proud to be driving a Toyota Tundra
and I can’t wait till Daytona.”

Mike Skinner

“It was a great season and I really felt like I would have liked to have finished a little better last night. I thought that we
might have had a little better truck. Eric (Phillips, crew chief) did a good job, the pit crew did a fantastic job – I don’t think
the driver did that good of a job tonight. I kept overdriving the corners and trying to get grip that just wasn’t there. Tim
Fedewa did a great job spotting, he kept trying to get me to slow down in the corner. When I would slow down getting in
the corner, I would run really good laps and we had a really good truck. Got to work on the driver a little bit with these tires
that are like this. Goodyear does a great job and I know they’ll get us better stuff next year.”

Timothy Peters

The #17 Strutmasters.com team worked diligently during two practice sessions on Thursday to get their Tundra handling the way Peters needed it to. He qualified 16th and felt like the truck would be good for the 150-lap race under the lights in Phoenix. Most comfortable on a short track, Peters was anxious to get the Lucas Oil 150 started.

When the green flag dropped, Peters went to work on the competition. He picked up the 14th spot on lap two. An early caution came out on lap seven and Peters radioed the crew that his Tundra was way too loose getting into turn one but was good in turns three and four. Crew chief Chad Kendrick called Peters to pit road on lap nine for fuel and shock and track bar adjustments. Peters restarted 30th.

The #17 Strutmasters.com Tundra wasted no time moving back through the field. Peters claimed the 19th spot on lap 20. Another caution came out on lap 34 and Peters told the team the front end of the truck was pushing badly. He told Kendrick he needed the nose of the truck back down on the race track because the track’s surface felt so greasy. Peters hit pit road on lap 35 for four fresh tires. He returned the following lap for fuel and another shock adjustment. He restarted 14th.

Despite picking up spots on pit road, Peters could not hold onto them on the track. He was struggling so badly with the truck’s condition that he slipped back to the 20th spot and lost a lap to the leaders. A caution came out on lap 90 and Peters headed back to pit road for more help. He took four fresh tires and returned the next lap for fuel and a shock adjustment. He restarted 18th.

Peters had to restart inside the leaders to race for his lap back. Unable to pass the leader, he was still in a good position, being the first truck one lap down. The #17 Strutmasters.com Tundra was handling a little better as Peters ran his fastest lap of the race on lap 98. A caution came out on lap 121 and Peters was awarded the “lucky dog,” putting him back on the lead lap. He hit pit road one final time on lap 122 for fuel and additional adjustments. He returned the following laps for four tires and restarted from the 17th spot.

With just 24 laps to go, Peters had his work cut out for him. Each driver was fighting every lap for every inch of race track. Peters was able to work his way to the 16th spot but slipped back to 17th just before the caution came out on lap 145 setting the field up for a green/white/checkered finish. With one final shot at it, Peters was determined to get all he could get. He grabbed the 16th spot before another caution came out, ending the race. Peters brought home a 16th place finish in the Lucas Oil 150 at Phoenix International Raceway.

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series heads to Miami, Florida this weekend. The Ford 200 at Homestead-Miami Speedway is scheduled for Friday, November 20th. It will be televised on SPEED Channel at 8:00 p.m. EST.

Finishing Position: 2nd

How was your race tonight?

“We weren’t as good as the 4 (Kevin Harvick). We did the best that we can and that’s all that we could come home with.
He (Kevin Harvick) kicked our butt pretty bad last year and we got a gain on it this year and that gain right there, we need
another one and we’ll be able to keep up with them or try to at least beat him. We kept up with him tonight but needed a
little more.”

Did you feel that you had a race-winning truck tonight?

“We didn’t have enough for the (Kevin) Harvick trucks tonight. (Ron) Hornaday kind of battled for a championship, played
it smart and (Kevin) Harvick was really fast like I said before. We came home second. It was a good day for the
Miccosukee Toyota Tundra. We gained from last year. (Kevin) Harvick whooped our butt pretty bad last year but we
gained on it a little bit. If we had another gain like that we probably would be able to keep up with him or win.”

Did you feel like Kevin Harvick had a big advantage over you?

“It wasn’t bad, it was about what I expected. I expected the 4 (Kevin Harvick) truck to be really, really good in which he
was. I guess he wasn’t driving in the beginning of the race. He was just holding back seeing what everybody had. Our
truck was good. We made a gain on it from last year to this year distancewise from (Kevin) Harvick. Harvick was just
stupid fast last year. This year I felt like we made a gain. If we can make another one of those gains next year then we’ll be
right on him. Overall, the Miccosukee Tundra was good. We led some laps and tried to go for the win but just didn’t quite
have enough on those restarts there.”

Do you think the 51 truck has a chance at winning the owner’s championship next weekend?

“I can’t close the gap, I’ve got to take that gap. They’re going to race next week hard as ever. They’re going to go and try
to win the race. That’s going to be the plan. They’ve got the driver’s championship locked up so if they go out there and
try to win the race and are successful at that then we can’t catch them. But if they go out there and try to win the race and
have problems by having issues whether it’s a wreck or engine or a tire – it could be anything. That’s why we race races.
Hopefully we can battle it out and have a good, strong run and see if we can’t beat them. Sixty points, I don’t know how
many spots that is but I take it that it’s probably 17 or so. So it’s going to be hard to do.”

Aric Almirola

Finishing Position: 3rd

How did your truck handle during the race?

“We had a good truck. Doug George (crew chief) and everybody on this AK Awareness.com Tundra did a really good job.
I don’t know what it’s going to take to get one of these ones. It’s not for a lack of effort. I can promise you that.
Everybody is racing their hearts out. Our truck just wasn’t very good on short runs and for whatever reason that last set of
tires didn’t take off very good for us. It was really tight – that last set of tires. We chattered the right front for quite a while
and just couldn’t ever take off.”

How was your race tonight?

“It was a fun race tonight. The race track widened out. You could run two-wide pretty good. The bottom lane was
definitely preferred but you could move around. It was a good race. I’m just still disappointed, man, I want to get one of
these wins some kind of bad. We tried, we raced our butts off and we came home third. That was what we had tonight.”

Was your truck better on the short or long runs tonight?

“It wasn’t very good on short runs. We struggled yesterday on short runs, too, in practice and for whatever reason it just
wouldn’t take off. We chattered the right front, chattered the right front and finally it would come in and take off and it
would go pretty good. I’m really proud of everybody at Billy Ballew Motorsports. Doug George (crew chief) and all of the
guys on this AK Awareness Tundra have been doing a great job. We just came up short. I’m going to win one of these
races one of these days. We just keep coming up short but it’s not for lack of effort.”

How has your team progressed over the season?

“Our team has really stepped their game up. We bring trucks to the race track every single weekend and they’re capable of
winning and I think we’ve proved that. Talladega we ran one-two and unfortunately I was second. Texas we had a top-
five, top-three truck and I lost power steering about lap 35 and then here again we had another good truck and led laps and
ran upfront but just couldn’t seem to seal the deal. I’m very proud of everything that everybody’s got going on at Billy
Ballew Motorsports.

I’m very happy that Graceway Pharmaceuticals have come onboard and helped us get through the end
of the year, but the Gods honest truth about next year, I have no clue. Last year, two years ago, I probably would’ve felt
like a little bit of an outcast and felt like the minority going to Homestead next week and not having any idea what I’m
doing next year but for whatever the case may be whether it’s the economy, whether it’s just people not sure of what’s
going on, I really feel like the majority. It seems like half of the garage in all three series are really unsure on their 2010
plans. There’s a lot of uncertainty going into next year and I just seem to be a part of that.”

Mike Skinner

Finishing Position: 6th

Were you not feeling well during tonight’s race at Phoenix?

“I got the creeping crud. It started a couple of days ago and my doctor has got me on all kinds of antibiotics and Prednisone
and everything else to try to keep me alive so I could run this race. Our Exide Tundra was awfully, awfully loose. I don’t
know what happened to the truck I had yesterday. After the race, Eric (Phillips, crew chief) told me he freed it up this
morning and didn’t tell me about it. We need to communicate a little better on stuff like that. Once he got it tightened back
up, I wish I could have started the race like I ended the race because I think we probably could have gotten a few more
spots.”

Did being sick tonight make this a difficult race?

“Yeah, any time you’re sick, your focus is off and your reactions are off. I was burning up hot one second and freezing cold
the next. My nose is running all down my mouth – it’s just not pretty when you’re sick. That’s why drivers make more
than mechanics because we have to be able to do that and we have to play hurt sometimes.”

MIKE BLISS, No. 25 Harris Trucking Toyota Tundra, HT Motorsports

Finishing Position: 7th

How was your race?

“It was alright, it was kind of uneventful. We took four (tires) at first and then we took two at the end. We were kind of
just sliding around at the end, but this place is always like that the last 50 laps. It never goes that long. We kind of counted
on that. It was a good run. I’m really happy I got to run this Toyota Tundra and it was a good solid run for us.”

David Starr

Finishing Position: 9th

Are you disappointed with your finish tonight?

“I am. We keep working hard. We didn’t have the best truck tonight. Our Zachry Toyota Tundra was just okay. We got it
better towards that second practice yesterday. Jason Miller, our crew chief, found something. It just wasn’t where it needed
to be. We had some great pit stop strategy and with a lot of heart and hard work, we never gave up. We came out with a
decent finish. Top-10s is a good thing, but we shoot for a lot better than that.”

What do you think about both HT Motorsports Tundras being in the top 10?

“That’s a good thing. That’s what we shoot for, we want both trucks in the top five and top 10. It was good to see us both
right there close to each other. We just needed to be a little bit further up the pecking charts. Not bad for a seventh and
ninth but we’re definitely working harder to get closer to that number one spot. With the way our truck was handling and
everything we had to fight against, it was almost like a win for us. You never get enough until you win these races, so we’ll
just keep striving and working hard to do that and that’s what we’re going to keep doing.”

(fourth), Scott (sixth), Peters (eighth) and Starr (ninth) – with two races remaining in the 2009 season.

In Victory Lane following the WinStar World Casino 350 at Texas Motor Speedway, Kyle Busch, driver of the No. 51 Miccosukee Resort / Graceway Pharmaceuticals Toyota Tundra, celebrates his fifth straight in as many starts in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series

Finishing Position: 1st

How do you feel about how tonight’s race worked out?

“That’s cool man. What a Tundra tonight, man. This Miccosukee / Graceway Pharmaceuticals Tundra was awesome and
Richie (Wauters, crew chief) and these guys have really done their homework lately. It’s an accomplishment to beat the 33
(Ron Hornaday, Jr.) bunch here, that’s for sure. We got it done today. You know, it was a lot of fun. The 88 (Matt
Crafton) — man, I hate seeing the 88 finish second. I really wish he could get a win. I thank the fans for coming out
tonight. It was a great race. Thank NOS Energy Drink and all these guys on this pit crew — Billy Ballew Motorsports. I’m
pretty proud accomplishment to be here — five in a row. That’s pretty sweet. Undefeated back with Richie (Wauters, crew
chief) — that’s what’s even more fun.”

What are your chances of winning all three races this weekend?

“I hope I didn’t screw it up for tomorrow. I’ve never won here in a truck, but I won the Nationwide races here in the past
three times. So, looking to try to get the Nationwide win tomorrow. Dave (Rogers, crew chief) and all the guys on the
M&M’s Camry will be working hard tomorrow during ‘Happy Hour.’ Try to get us something capable enough of running
up front on Sunday. We’ll see what we can get. It would be pretty awesome to get them all three done here at Texas. I
wanted to win a truck race here for a long time — so this is pretty cool. As soon as I get a Cup win — another one we can
notch off the list.”

Did you have it when you needed it at the end?

“Yeah, we did. We made some good changes on this Miccousukee Tundra today and really brought the thing to life. I’m
really proud of Richie (Wauters, crew chief) and all these guys. This is an awesome race truck. This is the same one
(truck) we won with at Chicago. We’ve got a match to number 11 (chassis). This is (number) 32 here, 11 was always our
chassis that kicked butt, so now we found another one. All these guys, they do a great job.”

Are your trucks good every time you come to the track?

“For sure. You know, I really look forward to working with these guys and Richie (Wauters, crew chief) and everybody
that works so hard on this truck. We’ve got a lot of guys that probably don’t make a whole lot of money, but they dig in
real deep and they don’t quit. They don’t go home at five – they stay late. That’s what it takes in this sport. The dedication
and the people to make it happen. These guys here, they’ve been dedicated. They really work their butts off — it’s starting
to prevail for them. We’ve got five in a row now with myself and it’s a total of seven wins for Billy (Ballew, team owner).”

Did you run the truck pretty hard at the end and wear down the right front tire?

“Yeah, I did. I was trying to stay away from the 88 (Matt Crafton) catching me — I was trying to stay away from him. He
was running me down. He had a great truck. I hat seeing Matt (Crafton) finish second. He needs a win in this deal and
especially to me. We’re pretty good friends. I wish I could pull over and give it to him, but that wouldn’t be racing. Again,
I had to run hard and I ended up pushing the right front tire off for a little bit too much, probably. It lasted just enough,
man. Those lapped trucks that I had to get by in the last 10, 12, 15 laps, whatever it was – really hurt our performance of
the truck and so we were fairly able to hold off the 88 (Matt Crafton) – which is cool.”

Are the Toyotas getting better gas mileage than the other trucks?

“Chevrolet and Ford lobbied for Toyota to get a smaller plate and it helped our fuel mileage. So, thanks guys. That’s all
the difference right there. Those guys have a bigger spacer-plate, we have tapered spacers and they have a bigger one so it
allows more air to pass through. When you allow more air to pass through, it takes more fuel to keep the engine running
right. Those guys have worse fuel mileage than we do. The Toyota Tundras though, the guys in the engine shop at Triad,
they’ve been working real hard to get us more horsepower and at the same time use less fuel to get better fuel mileage.
Every engine builder does that, but our guys have made some gains this year in that area. All you can do is get it from the
crew chief. If you’re short, you may have to conserve, but if you’re good to go, then you just go. The Toyotas seem to get
about — in a full fuel run — we seem to get three to five laps more than those guys. It’s not significant, but it’s enough
where sometimes it can make the difference.”

RICHIE WAUTERS, crew chief, No. 51 Miccosukee Resort Toyota Tundra, Billy Ballew Motorsports

What was your role in tonight’s win?

“When we started out tonight, we weren’t the best truck out there. We had problems, we were a little bit tight and a little bit
free at the same time. We made a few adjustments and it helped it. The last stop we made another adjustment and it was
the best the truck was all night. Of course, with Kyle (Busch) driving, he’s worth something there, too. We’ve been
working hard and the Toyota Tundra was the best it was all night long at the end.”

Todd Bodine, No. 30 Copart Toyota Tundra

Finishing Position: 4th

How was your race tonight?

“It was a good run. We were free in practice and we thought we had adjusted it and got it better. It was just too free all
through the race. We kept adjusting it until it was as good as it was going to get. Our Copart Tundra was just too free. I got
behind Ron (Hornaday, Jr) and started racing him and got aero-tight and chassis-loose and it was a handful to hang onto. To
come home fourth, it’s not a win. It’s not a third or second, it’s a little disappointing.”

Are you disappointed with this finish?

“We were just too free. The way the rules package is, these Tundras they keep them from running with the other guys so we
have to trim them out and really be free. We stepped over the edge and had it too free. Kyle (Busch) again hit it right on the
money to get it right on without it being loose. It was still a good run. The Copart Tundra was fast. I’m disappointed, we
wanted to get another win at Texas, but fourth is good. The way the middle part of the season was going, I think it we had
five or six top-10s in a row, so I think we’re back in form. We’re doing things right. It’s about all you can do.”

Brian Scott

Finishing Position: 7th

How was your truck tonight?

“We had a really good Albertsons Toyota Tundra all night. I had to fight track position at the drop of the green — didn’t
have a perfect truck. Jeff Hensley (crew chief) and everybody on the Xpress crew, they made the right adjustments and in
the second run, man we were hauling. We were fast. I think, actually it wasn’t the second run because the first pit stop we
took gas only. After we got tires the next caution after that, we were flying. I think we were fast as any truck out there. We
drove out to fourth. We had a great four tire pit stop. Came back in and pulled out of the gas and a lapped down truck
pinned us in the pits and we gave away all the track position.”

MIKE SKINNER, No. 5 Exide Toyota Tundra, Randy Moss Motorsports

Finishing Position: 8th

David Starr

Finishing Position: 9th

Are you happy with another top 10 finish?

“It was another top-10. Our Zachry Toyota Tundra was pretty awesome tonight. The team did a great job because our truck
wasn’t very good at the start of the race. We fought a lot of issues until about three-quarters of the way through the race.
Jason Miller, the crew chief, and all the guys on our Zachry team did an excellent job. They finally got it fixed and we
came alive right there at the end. It was a little too late, but we were battling trying to catch up.

We needed another caution to put us in the show. From what we started with to how it ended up, we’re pretty proud and that says a lot about this racing team. It takes the force that we never give up and when our back is up against the wall, we just keep digging. It was pretty good. Not what we wanted, but a top -10 finish and we’ll hold up our head high and leave knowing we gave it everything we got. We just got beat by better trucks tonight and we’ll go win at Phoenix next week.”

The #17 crew spent much of two practice sessions trying to get their Toyota Tundra handling better on the bumpy surface of Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Peters qualified 24th but knew the truck was better than it showed in qualifying.

When the Las Vegas 350 took the green flag, Peters was on a mission to get to the front. An early caution came out on lap three and crew chief Chad Kendrick knew he would have to get his driver off sequence with everyone else to get him to the front. He made the gamble and called Peters to pit road on lap five for fuel and a track bar adjustment.

Peters restarted 24th but was moving up in a hurry. By lap 16, he was running in the 17th position. Another caution flag flew on lap 21 and Peters hit pit road again on lap 23. He picked up fuel, wedge, and track bar adjustments all in one trip down pit road. Most competitors made two trips down pit road so Peters picked up plenty of track position. He restarted from the fifth spot.

Timothy Peters

Nearing his fuel window by lap 100, Peters watched as other competitors peeled off and hit pit road under green flag conditions. As the leaders pitted, Peters moved up in the field, eventually taking the lead on lap 116. Needing to fuel up himself, Peters headed for pit road on lap 118. Just after the #17 merged back on the track, the caution came out. Peters was running in the seventh position. The team made the choice to stay out for the final 22 laps of the race.

When green flag racing resumed, Peters restarted from the third spot. He battled each and every lap to hold his position but by the time the checkered flag flew, he was running in the fifth spot. The #17 team was thrilled that pit strategy had paid off and they were able to earn another top-five finish.

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series will enjoy three weekends off before heading to Martinsville, Virginia. The Kroger 200 at Martinsville Speedway is scheduled for Saturday, October 24th. It will be televised on SPEED Channel at 1:00 p.m. EDT.

· Peters at Vegas… The Las Vegas 350 will mark Timothy Peters’ second start at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. In only one previous start in 2005, Peters started 27th and finished 26th. Although he has not raced on the new speedway configuration, he logged laps on the redesigned 1.5-mile track during a NASCAR Nationwide Series test in 2007.

· Riding The Momentum… Peters and his #17 Strutmasters.com team suffered a minor set-back last weekend in New Hampshire when the team’s streak of five top-10’s in a row came to an end with a 19th place finish. Peters and the team are not giving up. They plan to start the streak over in Las Vegas and finish out the year in the top-10 each week. The #17 team is also committed to getting Peters inside the top-10 in driver point standings before the end of the season. Peters came into the New Hampshire weekend eighth in the point standings but fell to 11th after the race was over. He and the team are focused on earning as many points as they can each week to secure his spot in the top-10 at the end of the year.

· Peters to Tour Nellis Air Force Base… Peters has the unique opportunity this week to tour a United States Air Force Base in Las Vegas, Nevada. Located just a short distance from the race track, Nellis Air Force Base had opened its doors to Timothy Peters and the Red Horse Racing team. Peters will tour different areas of the base and then close with an autograph session at the Air Force Thunderbirds Hanger. Peters will be keeping busy in Las Vegas before he ever arrives at the track. Thursday night he will be participating in a charity bowling tournament at the South Point Casino to benefit Speedway Children’s Charities. Friday evening he will be signing autographs at the Stratosphere Casino from 7-8pm.

· Strutmasters.com On Board… Strutmasters was born in owner Chip Lofton’s converted dairy barn in 1999.

Timothy Peters

Timothy Peters on racing at Las Vegas Motor Speedway: “I’ve only run at Las Vegas once in 2005. I haven’t raced on the new configuration but I think my Nationwide Series test in 2007 helped me prepare. We are taking my favorite truck this weekend. Every time we run this chassis we seem to run really well. Hopefully we can get another great finish this weekend and keep the momentum going. We need to get everything we can each week as the season winds down.”

Crew Chief Chad Kendrick on Las Vegas Motor Speedway: “I’m ready to get back to a mile and a half track. This chassis we are taking is Timothy’s favorite. We’ve had a lot of success this year on the mile and a half tracks since joining Red Horse Racing so hopefully this will be another good one for us.”
