Vickers team wins the Pit Crew Challenge

Posted by Kyle Ocker on May 15, 2008

It took a team with a former Appalachian State Fullback and two former college hockey players to win the Sprint Pit Crew Challenge presented by Craftsman.

Vickers’ team beat the team of Denny Hamlin, with a time of 23.011 seconds, giving them pit selection number 1 for the All-Star Race Saturday, and they also collected a $70,000 prize.

Records:

Crew Member Name Position Team Time
Eric Wilson Jackman No. 9 Budweiser Dodge 5.431 seconds
Caleb Hurd Gas Man No. 24 DuPont Chevrolet 10.031 seconds

Hendrick continued their bad luck in the competition, all Hendrick teams were eliminated in or before the quarterfinals, leaving them without a showing in the semifinals for the third year.
