NASCAR Supertruck Series at Bristol 1995: (pt.1/7)

Start of the NASCAR Supertruck Series presented by Craftsman, Pizza Plus 150 @ Bristol International Speedway.

The race was delayed a couple hours due to rain.

Several drivers had to go to the back for missing the drivers meeting:
#3 Mike Skinner (qualified on the pole)
#84 Joe Ruttman (3rd)
#16 Ron Hornaday (8th)
#7 Geoff Bodine (9th)
#1 P.J. Jones (10th)
#29 Bob Keselowski (19th)
#51 Kerry Teague (20th)
#87 John Nemechek (27th)

There are two #6 trucks, as Rick Carelli and Mike Chase drive identical trucks. Chase was a late entry and was supposed to get the #62 instead of #6, but the 2 wasn't applied before the race started.

Jerry Glanville (#81) is on pit road before the race begins, complains of a possible broken shock.

FIRST CAUTION:
Carelli crashes in turn three.

he also made 2 Winston Cup races (best of 30th at Riverside, 1985) and 10 in Busch Grand National (best of 12th, Daytona, 1984)

This is the way the trucks should look and the tracks they should run on.
