Trucks - Wetz falls out early on, Batista capitalizes on wreck to win.

FLEMINGTON - The 2nd race of the season started with Josh Batista score the pole with a blazing lap of 20.379, the fastest lap set of the whole race weekend, and unlike Lareau who won from the back last week, Batista started on pole, and by the end of the race, he was there again, as he scored his first win in the truck series, and for the first time this year, the winner was the first driver to cross the line.

At the other end of the field, Chris Wetz was caught up in a very early lap wreck, and he fell out of the race due to this incident, and due to the fact he wasn't feeling too well while racing. Wetz took his first LASTCAR win in the truck series, and scored the first LASTCAR win for the "Independents", for people who don't have a team. Dan Mackay also fell out early on, unsuprisingly, due to a "gearbox" issue.
