Apr 20, 2009 at 3:32 PMI hate to see start-and-park teams, especially in the Truck Series, but I understand that in races where the winner can't even cover their race costs it's necessary to do so. I just hope that of the 38 trucks entered, at least 36 show up- and that they all do try to actually compete the whole race. But when a set of tires are $2000 and the last place team gets less than $10,000 the small startup teams can't compete.
