Despite what most might think, the front of the field was not the place to be at the end of the Craftsman Truck Series Built Ford Tough 250 presented by Greater Cincinatti Ford Dealers at Kentucky Speedway. However, current series points leader Dennis Setzer was there to take advantage for the win.
Terry Cook had been leading the race, and pulling away from the field when on lap 146 he blew a front tire ending his night. The race had to be extended for 1 lap as the Craftsman Truck Series rules dictate that a race must finish with 2 green flag laps. So Setzer took over with 6 laps to go and held off last race winner Todd Bodine to take his 3 win of the season. Rounding out the top-5 was David Reutimann in 3rd, Mike Skinner 4th, and Ted Musgrave 5th.
The next Craftsman Truck Series race is the O'Reilly's 200 at Memphis Motorsports Park in Memphis, TN on July 23, 2005 with race coverage beginning at 8:00pm EST in the SPEED channel.
