Craftsman Truck Series Talladega bound in 2006
It was announced today that the Craftsman Truck Series will start racing at Talladega on October 7, 2006. It will part of the same weekend the ARCA series and Cup series race. The ARCA race, usually runs on Saturday, but to make room for the Truck series, ARCA will race on Friday that weekend.
What wasn't said, was whether or not they will run restrictor plates or not. They don't use them at Daytona, even though the Busch and Cup cars do, so I'm guessing they won't use them at Talladega.
I think it'll be exciting to watch the trucks race at Talladega, Talladega usually equals excitement and so does the Truck series, so the two together should be exciting to watch. Let's just hope there isn't a bad wreck to mar the race like it was at Daytona in 2000 when the trucks first raced there.

The fact these guys are driving modified pickup trucks means the entire vehicle is one big restrictor plate. Chances are NASCAR won't have to do much unless they feel the fans are in danger. I just hope they gat it off the Speed channel and onto a network someone can watch. My cable system has about a dozen home shopping channels but no room for Speed. Spike would be a cool place for it, UPN my second pick.

One more thought: Is this going to be the place where Jarrett drives the truck?
