A little home cooking for McDonald’s driver Bobby Hamilton left the Tennessee native in seventh place in the NASCAR Busch Series Point’s race. For the second time this 2007 season, the Busch Series came to Bobby’s home track, The Nashville Superspeedway for a 300 mile race. When the checkered flag waved across the field, Hamilton had moved forward to seventh in the point’s race with a 13th place finish.
A long green flag run allowed Hamilton to move inside the top-five before the first pit stop of the day. Unfortunately, the team had trouble changing the front tires and dropped to 15th following the pit stop. For the remainder of the race, crew chief Chris Wright was forced to make pit stop decision to regain the lost positions. Wright tried two tire pit stops and was successful in placing Hamilton back inside the top five.
Next Saturday night, Hamilton will return to Kentucky Speedway where he will go for his second win at the 1.5 mile track.
