FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Dennis Setzer overtook the ill-handling truck of Ted Musgrave with five laps left Friday night and went on to a record-setting NASCAR trucks win in Texas.
Setzer won by 11.817 seconds, the largest margin of victory at the track, in a record speed of 148.946 mph. The race had just three cautions for 12 laps.
Setzer led just 13 laps in his 12th career win, five years to the date after his only other Texas win.
When Setzer made his final pit stop with 32 laps left, his crew opted to change all four tires on his Chevrolet. That came just three laps after Musgrave changed only right-side tires.
