Foristell, MO (May 18th, 2009)-Ben Stancill, and the #63 MB Motorsports Team traveled to Lowe’s Motor Speedway for the “North Carolina Education Lottery 200” NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race this past weekend. Stancill made a lasting impression on the MB Motorsports Team. “Ben is the real deal and will be a winner”, stated MB Motorsports Team Owner Mike Mittler.
With rain canceling qualifying midway through the session for the 134 lap race at the ultra fast 1.5 mile Speedway, the field was set by Owner’s Points. Ben started the Dolce Vita Entertaining, Mittler Bros. Machine & Tool, Don Shetler Ford F-150 in the 33rd position. Ben patiently worked his way toward the front, running a steady 23rd at the mid-point of the race. With Ben’s valuable feedback, the MB Motorsports crew continued making the necessary adjustments as Ben ran his fastest lap of the race on lap 113. Ben crossed the finish line in 19th place for his 2nd career Top 20 finish in only his 3rd NCWTS start.
"I had such a great experience at Lowe’s with the MB Motorsports Team”, stated Stancill. “I have grown up racing a legend car in the Summer Shootout on the 1/4 mile track at Lowes, but this is the first opportunity I've had to race on the big track. I started the race 33rd due to qualifying being rained out. We continued to improve on the truck throughout the entire race; in fact I turned my fastest lap in the last 20 laps of the race. This is my second race with MB Motorsports, our team chemistry is better, I'm able to communicate with Mr. Mittler better and therefore he’s able to make changes in the truck to make it better. I'm really looking forward to the next race; I think we will continue to improve. I'm so glad we had a top twenty finish and brought the truck home without a scratch on it!"
MB Motorsports has fielded a truck in the NASCAR division since the inaugural 1995 season. 20 Year old Ben Stancill from Ayden, NC joined an elite group of drivers that have driven MB Motorsports Trucks, Including: Carl Edwards, Jamie McMurray, Brad Keselowski, Regan Smith, Justin Allgaier, the late Kenny Irwin Jr. and the late Tony Roper.
