| Mike Bliss overcame a missing lug nut to win the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series O'Reilly Auto Parts 250 at Kansas Speedway on Saturday. Bliss, with one of the fastest trucks on the 1.5-mile speedway all day, took the lead on lap 165 when leader Rick Crawford's Ford developed rear end problems after leading 127 of the 167 laps. Crawford finished two laps down in 12th. Coy Gibbs, son of Winston Cup owner Joe Gibbs, finished third, followed by pole-sitter Jason Lefler, who had challenged Crawford for the lead most of the day. Lefler had to move up the track when Crawford's truck let go and had to ease out of the throttle, allowing Bliss to make the pass for the lead.
