David Starr No. 24 Zachry/Harris Trucking Toyota Tundra Race Recap
Lucas Oil 200

Newton, IA (September 6, 2009) – David Starr finished the inaugural NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at the Iowa Speedway in 26th position after a mid-race accident damaged the No. 24 Zachry/Harris Trucking Toyota Tundra beyond repair.

Starr was racing in a pack of trucks when two other drivers made it three abreast going into turn one on lap 109. Contact was made and Starr’s truck shot up the banking and delivered a solid shot to the outside wall, flatting the sides and damaging the front suspension. Starr was uninjured in the crash and was disappointed at his second consecutive finish outside the top 20.

“I went down into turn one that lap and felt contact in the left rear quarter panel. I tried to catch it but it shot up the track. We made some pretty good contact with the wall and tore the truck up. I’m okay, just a little upset. We’re trying to get up and finish in the top five in the points and the past two weeks have hurt. We’re disappointed but we aren’t going to give up. We’re going to regroup and head to St. Louis and try to win that race and turn our momentum around.”

Starr dropped one position to seventh in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series point standings, 66 points behind sixth-place Colin Braun and 80 points outside of the top five.

The next race for Starr and the No. 24 Zachry/Harris Trucking Toyota Tundra is the Copart 200 at Gateway International Raceway, scheduled for 2:30 P.M. Eastern on Saturday September 12.
