Schrader Fastest In Eldora Time Trials

Ken Schrader turned the fastest time in qualifying for tonight's inaugural NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Mudsummer Classic at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio.  

The Fenton, MO, native turned a fast lap in 19.709 seconds at a speed of 91.329 mph, earning his second career NASCAR Camping World Truck Series pole in his 100th career start. His previous pole came at Bristol Motor Speedway in August of 2004, and he now becomes the oldest pole winner in series history at the age of 58 years, one month and 25 days. Schader took advantage of an early qualifying draw, as the sixth driver to take time.

Despite setting fast time, Schrader will not necessarily start on the pole for the opening segment of tonight’s Mudsummer Classis. Time trial results serve to set the field for this evening’s five, eight-lap qualifying races. Those races -- along with a 15-lap last chance qualifier -- will determine the starting grid for the 150 lap main event. Schrader must win his heat race to earn pole position for the main.
